Carrot!

Published by Shana | Filed under Crochet, Free, Patterns

Carrot!

Supplies

  • Chunky orange yarn – I used leftovers of Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick and Quick
  • Worsted weight green – I used Brown Sheep’s
  • Size K hook
  • Size G hook

Instructions

  • Row 1: Use the K hook. Using a magic circle, 4sc and join
  • Rows 2-3: ch2, 3sc, join
  • Row 4: ch2 inc sc4, join
  • Row 5: ch2 inc sc5, join
  • Row 6: ch2 inc sc6, join
  • Row 7: ch2 inc sc7, join
  • Row 8: ch2 inc sc8, join
  • Row 9: ch2 sc9, join
  • Stuff the carrot.
  • Row 10: sc2tog
  • Join and pull yarn through. If you still have a little hole, sew it closed with the tail and trim the end.
  • Switch to the G hook for the leaves. Double up the yarn and join at the top of the carrot.
  • ch for the length you desire. Cut end and pull through. You can knot the ends, if you need.
  • Repeat for the number of leaves you want. I did 5. They curl on their own.
  • To clean up the bottom of the stems, wrap green yarn around the bottom, and weave in the end. This helps hold up the leaves too

That’s it! I also think it’d be great to put a face on the carrot. Something saying “Eat me! I help you see in the dark.”

mmm, tasty.
