(switch to white)
Round 2: 2 sc in each st around (12)
Rounds 3-4: sc around (12)
*Note: if you want to stitch the eyes directly onto your carrot, leave a long tail of Yarn to stitch with. I used a glue gun for mine, because it is less tedious and usually just as sturdy in my opinion. Otherwise:
F/O leaving long tail to stitch to carrot
Leaves:
Ch 5
sc in 2nd ch from hk
sc in next ch
dc in next 2 chs
F/O weave in ends -or- leave long tail depending on your preference
*Note: Same as with the eyes. I used a Glue gun to attach my leaves.
I used the black felt to make a “scared” shaped mouth. I also used the glue gun to attach that one.
That’s all there is to this little guy, as always, please do not hesitate to leave your feedback, it always makes my day.
