My daughter asked me to design a series of crochet edibles. This is the next set of items in this series. This pattern is a variety of vegetables to go along side of the variety of fruits. It includes—pickle, tomato, cabbage, carrot, onion, corn on the cob, celery, eggplant, radish, bell pepper and olive. This pattern also includes a basket to carry them in. The basket can be made in any color. My daughter loves red and blue, so I used red and blue sparkle yarn.
MATERIALS:
Worsted weight yarn: Paddy green, cherry red, orange, lemon, honeydew, medium thyme, sage, lavender, and any color for the basket.
