00:00:00,333 --> 00:00:02,750
(light music)

2
00:00:02,750 --> 00:00:03,839
- Hi, it's Twinkie.

3
00:00:03,839 --> 00:00:06,980
I'm gonna show you how to
crochet this cute little radish.

4
00:00:06,980 --> 00:00:08,929
I originally developed
this pattern to be worn

5
00:00:08,929 --> 00:00:11,439
as a lariat scarf with super long stems

6
00:00:11,439 --> 00:00:12,650
that wrapped around your neck,

7
00:00:12,650 --> 00:00:15,019
but for those moments when
you might not be inclined

8
00:00:15,019 --> 00:00:17,760
to wear your vegetables,
I adapted that pattern

9
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,440
so that we can make this
adorable radish plush toy.

10
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:21,920
For our radish, we're going to go over

11
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,899
some basic crochet techniques
such as magic circle

12
00:00:24,899 --> 00:00:26,440
and the single crochet stitch.

13
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,600
I'll also show you how
to increase, decrease,

14
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,300
change colors in the middle of a project,

15
00:00:31,300 --> 00:00:32,689
and I'm also going to show you how to work

16
00:00:32,689 --> 00:00:34,640
the half triple crochet stitch.

17
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,299
For a single radish, you'll
need about eight yards

18
00:00:37,299 --> 00:00:40,049
of a pink worsted weight
yarn, about 12 yards

19
00:00:40,049 --> 00:00:41,549
of a green worsted weight yarn,

20
00:00:41,549 --> 00:00:44,600
and about four yards of a
white worsted weight yarn.

21
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:46,770
These are all Lion Brand Vanna's Choice

22
00:00:46,770 --> 00:00:49,570
in Raspberry, Kelly, and White.

23
00:00:49,570 --> 00:00:51,951
You'll also need some polyester stuffing,

24
00:00:51,951 --> 00:00:54,490
a small wooden stick or pencil to help you

25
00:00:54,490 --> 00:00:58,390
with the stuffing, a G hook, an H hook,

26
00:00:58,390 --> 00:00:59,969
a small pair of scissors,

27
00:00:59,969 --> 00:01:03,500
a tapestry needle, stitch
markers or a small piece of yarn

28
00:01:03,500 --> 00:01:05,400
in a contrasting color, and don't forget

29
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:06,962
to print out your PDF pattern.
