Donut Fidget Toy

This project was inspired by my most popular crochet tutorial on YouTube , my Mobius Fidget Toy. Materials: worsted weight yarn, size 4 size g hook or any yarn and hook size you would like as a donut. scissors yarn needle stuffing of your choosing - the green donut in the picture has a marble in it. - I have used leftover yarn scraps and have used small pieces of plastic grocery bags - of course, you can use Polyfil.
