The Cheerful Cherries pattern is an easy pattern that works up quickly.

This is the perfect crocheted fruit accompaniment to the Succulent Strawberries, Beaming Banana & Appetising Apple.

The free pattern is available on my blog at Cilla Crochets, however if you’d prefer the PDF version with no ads it can be purchased from my Ravelry, Etsy or Lovecraft stores.

Further information about this pattern can be found below, but if you have any questions at all please don’t hesitate to get in touch with me directly.

Material Needed

  • Yarn:Worsted Weight Yarn in 3 Colours (14m Red, 6m Brown, 1m Green). I used Rico Design Creative Cotton Aran.
  • Crochet Hook: 3.5mm
  • Other: Stuffing, Needle, Scissors, Stitch Marker

Pattern Information

  • Language: English
  • Pattern Terminology: US Terms
  • Techniques: Worked in the round
  • Stitches used: Single Crochet, Half Double Crochet, Double Crochet, Slip Stitch, Chain, Increases & Decreases
  • Yarn: The yarn choice is completely up to you, and you can change the yarn weight, material, and colours based on your own personal preference. Just be aware that the weight of your yarn may impact the hook size you need to use and also the size of your final make.
  • Hook size: I recommend using a smaller hook size than recommended on the yarn label. This will stop the stuffing appearing through your stitches.
  • Copyright: You are more than welcome to sell your crocheted creations using this pattern on a small scale. However, the pattern itself cannot be reproduced, sold, or redistributed in any way without the designers’ consent. For more information, please read the full copyright notice at the bottom of this page.

Gauge

Gauge is not required for this pattern, however for reference my gauge was as follows:
6 sc stitches on 2.5 cm / 1 “
6 rows on 2.5 cm / 1 “

Cheerful Cherries Size

Using the yarn, hook and gauge stated in this pattern, your Cheerful Cherries will be approximately 10 cm / 3.9 “ high from the bottom of one cherry to the top of the stem.

Sharing Your Makes

The best part of crochet designing for me is seeing other people using my patterns and of course, seeing their makes!

If you do decide to crochet the Cheerful Cherries, I would absolutely love to see your make and share it with the community. Simply share your make on social media using the hashtag #CrochetCheerfulCherries and by tagging me @cillacrochets. You can also upload a project with a picture to Ravelry linking to this pattern, and I can view it this way (I do often take a look!).
