Little red cap mushroom

Started out as a pencil topper but ended up too big for that. I considered adding cute eyes, should I have?


I wanted a stitch that would create gills & this tutorial was just perfect.

The rest was just made up in the moment.

Very cute! I think I probably prefer it without any eyes, but I’m sure it would be adorable with eyes as well.

Super cute! I’m in awe of your ability to just make yarn do what you want it to without a pattern.

That’s the magic of crochet! Made a mistake? No problem, just do the opposite in the next row, it’ll turn out fine!
It’s the Bob Ross of yarns- there are no mistakes, only happy little accidents :smile:

Thanks! I like the wagon-wheelishness of it. I don’t like crocheting with cotton but maybe I’ll try that pattern out with wool sometime. Wool trivets sound like a good idea. I think.
