You can even use any scraps that you have lying around! Materials: Size I Crochet Hook Small amounts of worsted weight yarn in 3 colors. I used Lily Sugar n Cream in Yellow, Hot Pink, and Hot Orange. Tapestry or darning needle, for weaving ends Ladybug Button (optional) Abbreviations: mc - magic circle ch - chain dc - double crochet sl st - slip stitch
