If you’ve ever stepped on a soggy bath toy or found them piled up around the tub, this crochet toy hammock is about to be your new favorite quick project.
It’s simple, practical, and works up fast with just basic stitches.
A perfect make for using up cotton yarn while creating something you’ll actually use every single day.
The tighter mesh design keeps smaller bath toys from slipping through, while still allowing plenty of airflow so everything can dry properly between baths.
This pattern is worked in rows to form a triangle, making it beginner-friendly and easy to customize.
You can make it larger or smaller depending on your space, but the finished size shown here measures approximately 13 inches across the front and 9 inches along each side.
It’s designed to fit neatly into a corner of your tub or shower using suction cup or adhesive hooks, keeping toys off the floor and out of the way.
Whether you’re organizing your kids’ bath time chaos or just want a cleaner, more put-together bathroom, this quick crochet hammock is a simple solution that looks as good as it functions.
