Chilli’s have antiseptic properties as well as the ability to increase circulation and desensitise pain. They are often added to lotions and balms to relieve muscle pain. Interestingly the seeds are not the hottest part of the chilli pepper, it is the white membrane where the seed is attached that gives the strongest flavour.

This pattern is worked in the round and I use abbreviations according to US crochet language. I can provide the pattern in UK crochet language if preferred, please just contact me.

The finished chilli is approximately 3” (7cm) in diameter. This pepper would be beautiful as a brooch or as a decoration for the home.

Tools Needed:
US size E (3.5mm) crochet hook
scissors
yarn needle

Yarn Needed:
DK acrylic yarn in bright red and leaf green.

If you need any help or advice please feel free to contact me.
