Tiny Happy Crochet is a collection of eight darling crochet motifs that will sweeten up any project for little ones or the young at heart! You can sew them to simple garments and accessories for a touch of whimsy, create charms for precious buntings and nursery mobiles, or attach them to hair clips and greeting cards for a dear handmade touch. My three-year-old daughter enjoys playing with them fresh off the hook. They’re just fun to have around!

Yarn Substitutions:

Yarn Quantities:
You need very small amounts of yarn for the individual motifs. I recommend buying an assortment of colors, and have fun playing around! You’ll get LOTS of motifs from a few skeins of yarn.
