About this pattern
A red apple for the teacher, with a brown stem, a green leaf and a big smile. Crunch has just three parts and 29 rounds, so a beginner can finish one in an evening. Give it on the first day of school, at the end of the year or during Teacher Appreciation Week, or add a little name tag to the stem.
It makes a sweet baby shower gift, a birthday surprise or a little shelf friend, and you are welcome to sell the toys you make from it.
