Carrots have never been so adorable!!
Hi my fellow crafters and happy Tuesday!
Get ready for a super "healthy" 😁 crochet project!
This cute amigurumi Carrot is part of one of my favorite project - the Vegetable Amigurumi Collection! A very fun way to encourage kids to get familiar with veggies!
I previously shared with you all the instructions to create the Turnip and the Bell Pepper. Today you will learn how to
stitch up the Carrot and next week we're gonna have some fun at crocheting a sweet Leek!
