Crochet: Amigurumi: Mini Toadstool



After Micro Tulipa is completed, I rack my brains trying to find a place for him. Then I realise the answer is staring me right in the face. I have this toadstool eraser dust sucker on my working table all this while. With the toadstool house idea in place, I go about trying to crochet one. After countless attempts which see me (behind the scenes) crocheting and unravelling, crocheting and unravelling, writing and rewriting the patterns, this cute mini toadstool is finally ready to take in Micro Tulipa. It is completed yesterday.

I am happy that Micro Tulipa has now found a home sweet home in Mini Toadstool.
