all season strawberry
 <  Image 1 of 3  > 

The parts were leftover from the knitted cat I made they were supposed to be paws. I reckoned them rather strawberry looking... so... I made a strawberry pin, now I have one to add to my collection.

(Wouldn't dare to waste perfect yarn ;p )

  1. Step 1

    Step 1

    supplies:

    - yellow, green and red yarn
    - scissors
    - stuffing
    - knitting needles
    - felt (I bought mine with glitter)
    - safety pin (preferably red and small)
    - needle

  2. Step 2

    Step 2

    make two

    - cast on 12 stitches
    - knit 5 rows in stockinette stitch*
    *knit right side, purl wrong side of fabric*

    - purl 1 row, on next row (right side) cast off 1 stitch both sides.

    (at end of needle pull the last stitch over latter and then knit)

    repeat this 5 times, then cast off last 4 stitches.


  3. Step 3

    Step 3

    take the safety pin and pull it through 3 rows down and 3 stitches from each side.

  4. Step 4

    Step 4

    put right sides together and sew.

    turn inside out and loosely apply tiny seeds with yellow yarn or embroidery thread.


  5. Step 5

    Step 5

    now fill it up and pull a string through top stitches, pull tight and fasten.

  6. Step 6

    Step 6

    Make the top with felt or scraps of fabric.

  7. Step 7

    Step 7

    Sew top on the strawberry, fasten it and pull the remaining thread through the middle.

    Put some glue on remaining thread (about 0,5") let dry, then cut off the excess - this 'way the stem won't unravel.

    now enjoy your strawberry all seasons!
