This pattern is the first in a series called “my first project” – these patterns are easy to follow and quick to do, making them the perfect project to start crocheting! I remember my first project about ten years ago, which was similar to this one – I made a tiny little mushroom, and was soo proud when I was finished!
The materials you need:
– a 3mm crochet hook
– black and white felt
– glue
– red and white yarn
– toy stuffing
– a scissor
If you are using materials you already have at hand at home, make sure the yarn and crochet hook are a good fit, you can see on the label of the yarn what kind of crochet hook you need.
The techniques you need to know:
– Magic ring
– Single crochet (SC)
– Increasing (2in1)
– Decreasing (2to1)
Let’s get started!
