Fabulously quick projects completed for a story bag, each made in an hour or less!
As you can see, as well as the tomato, I also made the apple and the carrot for this project from the book.

I have also made an ORANGE 14.04.13 by adapting the apple pattern. I especially like the texture for this one, as it looks more realistic than the knitted orange I made for Hungry Caterpillar.
I often use crochet patterns as a basic guideline and then work intuitively. I also enjoyed deploying a new technique just recently learned (i.e. adding different colours to the apple.)
