Introduction I learned to crochet when I was about nine years old. I’ve been crocheting for myself ever since: bags, scarves, tops. It is only when I became a mother that I started to crochet for someone else rather than myself – my girls. First, blankets, then hats, sweaters and finally toys. That’s how this book was born.
Inside you will find patterns for the most common fruits and vegetables. These projects are very quick and are a great way to use up yarn leftovers. If you and your kids love their new play food, be sure to check my other Crochet Food book, where you will find everything from breakfast eggs to cakes and tea sets. Thank you for reading and happy crocheting!
