★ ---Details --- ★
This beautifully-presented crochet kit contains everything you need to make the pair of fruit, including a cute leaf.
The patterns are worked with a 3.5mm (US size E-4) crochet hook (or the size needed to make a compact crochet fabric with the given yarn). I offer lovely natural bamboo crochet hooks by Pony if you do not have any or are giving this kit as a gift.
The finished fruit are approximately 5.5cm in diameter.
The carded wool stuffing is a natural product. It is scoured and clean, but may still occasionally include the odd bit of straw or leaf.
The plastic-free kit is designed to be as low-impact / sustainable as I can possibly make it, so it also makes a great gift for a crafty and/or eco-minded friend.
• box - reusable / recyclable / biodegradable
• tissue - 100% recycled
• printer paper - 100% recycled

🟩 This is a beginner level kit suitable for those with basic crochet knowledge who want to improve their skills; it does not teach you to crochet from scratch. It’s perfect for practising your new crochet skills.
All my kits come with my full support if you have any questions.
