Crochet Strawberry Plush
MATERIALS
Weight 6 Yarn – I used Bernat Blanket Yarn in the colors “Race Car Red”, “Go Go Green”,
“Pixie Pink” and “Vanilla.” I used less than an entire skein for each color, there should be
enough left over to make a second strawberry from the same skeins.
10.00mm Crochet Hook
Scissors – Small, cute and sharp!
Stitch Markers – Love these because they are secure and won’t fall out of your work.
Darning Needle – my FAVES 💕
STITCHES + ABBREVIATIONS
Ch = Chain
Sc = Single Crochet
St(s) = Stitch(es)
Rep = Repeat
Inc = Increase
Dec = Decrease
BLO – Back Loop Only
FLO = Front Loop Only
