Happy Wednesday my fellow crafters!
I just finished a brand new design – a crochet amigurumi pretzel! 🥨
This project is easy, quick, and full of September vibes. Whether you want to add it to your play food collection, use it as a fun piece of fall décor, or turn it into a bag or backpack charm, this pretzel is the perfect little make to welcome the season.
I’m sharing the instructions for free here on the blog, but if you’d like extra visual help or simply want to support my small business, you can also purchase the fully illustrated version of the pattern (with step-by-step pictures) in my Etsy shop.
Happy crocheting!
