Mushroom Amigurumi

"Crochet your own cute Mini Mushroom with this free, easy amigurumi pattern! This quick project is perfect for beginners and includes a full video tutorial that shows you every step. The mushroom comes with two different face options (closed eyes or oval eyes), or you can leave the face off entirely for a simple, classic mushroom look. The red cap with white spots is crocheted separately and attached to the stalk, and you can add the spots at the end. Made with sport weight cotton yarn and a B/1 (2.5 mm) crochet hook, the mushroom is 2 inches (4.5 cm) tall, the perfect size for a keychain or bag charm. Use super bulky chenille yarn to make a soft, squishy mushroom plushie of 4 inches (10 cm), depending on your hook. Both sizes use the same pattern, and you can use any yarn that you like. This pattern is a great way to use up leftover yarn, and it makes a sweet handmade gift. It is written in U.S. crochet terms and uses only basic stitches, including increases and decreases."
