I created this applique as part of a challenge where the theme was Summer.

What can you do with an applique? Sew it onto a granny square, garment or beanie, glue it onto the front of a card, starch it to create a pendant for a necklace or earring, make a bunch and string them together as a garland… Just to name a few.

Materials:

  • Small Amount of Worsted Weight Yarn – I used WeCrochet Dishie in White, Fiesta Red, Black and Jalapeno
  • H8/5mm Crochet Hook
  • Tapestry Needle
  • Optional, Jewelry Pliers

Material Notes:
Lily Sugar n Cream and Red Heart Smoothie are similar to WeCrochet Dishie, but the beauty of this project is that you can use any weight yarn with the respective crochet hook, and it just changes up the finished size of the applique.

Weaving in ends of a tough yarn, like cotton yarn, can be hard on the fingers. Sore thumbs and frustration can be a thing of the past by simply using jewelry pliers to carefully help pull the tapestry needle through the work.

Time Spent:
This applique took me just under 20 minutes to complete.

Measurements:
4.13″ Wide by 2.38″ Tall (2.56″ if you edge the top) (10.5 cm Wide by 6 cm Tall (6.5 cm if you edge the top)
