’Worry Worms’ are small, wiggly worms that are used as a tool for emotional support, stress relief, and to help children or adults cope with their worries.

They are often given with a poem - and are designed to be held when a person is feeling anxious or upset.

The trend started in the UK and spread through social media, particularly through online crafting groups like Random Acts of Crochet Kindness on facebook.

This pattern uses UK crochet terms:

Requirements:
DK yarn – cotton or cotton blend DK works especially well (I do not recommend hairy or fuzzy yarn)
3.5mm hook
Googly eyes (optional) – you can embroider on the eyes if you prefer

Perfect for charity donation , Random Act of Kindness, or a sweet little fun gift.
