I’m a sucker for all things forest, so I couldn’t resist creating a crochet mushroom pattern. These mushrooms would make a lovely gift for your forest or fairy loving friends, or make a few mushrooms to make a baby mobile. They are also great for using up scrap yarn and great for beginners!
While this pattern is available for free here on MummaJ Crochet, a PDF version is also available (low cost and print friendly!)
