Crochet Vegetables Basket Part 1: Potato

Hello friends, How are you all, hope good. Now a days Health good means every thing good. On the background of Corona virus we can say that the secrete of good health is eating healthy food, exercise and stay at home. In healthy Indian food means eating all types of vegetables and fruits as per season. So I spend my last 10 days in making these crochet vegetables. You can try making them for Home Decor or for Gifting some one, specially kids. I also feel that this is a best gift for primary of Kinder Garden schools because that is the place where different vegetables are introduced to the kids. So to imagine their shapes, sizes and colours these crochet vegetables will help them. When I made this Potato, continuously I am whispering the song heard by my grandson," One potato, two potato .......". The Vegetable basket contains Potato, Carrot, Egg plant, Spinach, Cabbage, Bhendi, Beatroot, Garlic, Onion, Chilli, Lemon and Pepper (Simla Mirchi). So here we see the pattern of POTATO.
