This cute carrot toy will be a great addition to the spring’s decor of your home; also you may use it as photo props, keychain for backpack or keys or for children’s games.
I made two versions of carrot pattern: round knitting and flat knitting by turning rows. Сarrot tops knitted by turning rows and sew on the base.

1. I used Kartopu Amigurumi 1.76 Oz (50g) / 142 Yds (130m), 49% Cotton, 51% Acrylic. You can use any suitable wool/cotton yarn with similar footage and properties for the specified size. The following yarn is also suitable:
• Yarn art Jeans 1.76 Oz. (50g) / 174 yds (160 m)
• Alize Cotton Gold 3.53 Oz (100 g) / 361 yds (330 m)
• Gazzal Baby Cotton 1.76 Oz (50g) / 150 yds (165m), etc. 

For one carrot toy, you will need about 0,35Oz (10 grams) of yarn;
2. Circular needles with long line (from 23.6’’ (60cm)) for round knitting, or Addi Crazy Trio needles, or double pointed needles. I used US 2 (2,75mm) size needles. Select a knitting needle size based on the specified knitting gauge and your yarn: from US 0 (1,75mm) to US 2 (3,0mm).
3. Toy stuffing (holofiber, thinsulate etc.);
4. Some yarn for embroidery carrot’s stripes. I used linen yarn yellow color;
5. Scissors; needle, 1 knitting marker.
