Looking for a quick evening project that works up faster than a seed sprouting? Check out my free crochet carrot pattern!
I hope you enjoy my free crochet carrot pattern, and I can’t wait to see your work!
I was walking through my garden yesterday afternoon, (a very short stroll, due to the humid heat we’ve been having this week) and thought I’d take a peek at how my carrots are growing. Spoiler alert: not well. The tops are okay-ish, but the roots? So tiny, they’re hardly worth mentioning—maybe enough for a baby field mouse, but certainly not for my salad. I’m going to leave them in the garden for now, hoping they’ll grow at least a little bigger. While these free crochet carrot patterns weren’t inspired by my teensy harvest, they do represent the kind of bounty I’d love to see in my garden.
