If you’re looking for a youthful, fun project to crochet for Christmas, check out this crochet fox pattern.

The Mr. Fox Toy is so sweet and fun and is the perfect counterpart to the adventurous Mrs. Fox Toy.

Mr. Fox has a removable jacket and crochet scarf for easy cleaning, or if you wanted to make him a couple of other outfits too. He’s entirely stitched up with single crochet stitches so this is an easy crochet project with a big payoff.

I love how fun this fox toy is. He seems like the perfect friend to take on road trips. It’s made out of an acrylic wool blend which adds durability and softness. Everything a kid’s toy needs.
