FREE Mini Mushroom Crochet Pattern

Here's the written pattern for my first youtube video! I wanted my first crochet tutorial on youtube to be beginner-friendly, so I came up with this no-sew (well technically you do have to "sew" on the white dots on the mushroom cap, but it's nothing super crazy!) mini mushroom.

If you want to try and make a bigger mushroom using this pattern, try changing the yarn and hook sizes! I used some jumbo-sized yarn by sweet snuggles and chenille home to create this big boy.

Here's a size comparison:

Honestly, try experimenting with all different kinds of yarn! though I gotta warn you, you might end up with a mushroom army.

• Worsted weight yarn in colors: red, cream, and white

• 2.75 mm hook

• Black embroidery thread

• Pink eyeshadow

• 2 mm safety eyes
