00:00:00,750 --> 00:00:03,910
(bright music)

2
00:00:03,910 --> 00:00:04,980
- Hi, I'm Twinkie,

3
00:00:04,980 --> 00:00:08,550
and we're going to
crochet this cute tomato.

4
00:00:08,550 --> 00:00:10,500
The really fun part about this project

5
00:00:10,500 --> 00:00:12,619
is you can create this really neat texture

6
00:00:12,619 --> 00:00:14,240
with a super simple technique.

7
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,859
Working the magic circle, a slip stitch,

8
00:00:16,859 --> 00:00:19,989
a single crochet stitch, and
half double crochet stitch.

9
00:00:19,989 --> 00:00:21,789
The tomato works up as a little ball

10
00:00:21,789 --> 00:00:23,320
and then we create these fun segments

11
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:24,769
with a few simple stitches.

12
00:00:24,769 --> 00:00:27,120
Finally, we'll sew on the tomato top.

13
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,589
For this project you'll
need about 26 yards

14
00:00:29,589 --> 00:00:31,320
of worsted weight red yarn,

15
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,329
and about four yards of
worsted weight green yarn.

16
00:00:34,329 --> 00:00:36,229
These are both Lion Brand Vanna's Choice

17
00:00:36,229 --> 00:00:38,240
in scarlet and kelly.

18
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,039
You'll also need a small
amount of polyester stuffing,

19
00:00:41,039 --> 00:00:44,240
an H hook, a small
wooden stick or a pencil

20
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,630
to help with stuffing, a pair of scissors,

21
00:00:47,630 --> 00:00:51,090
a tapestry needle, stitch
markers or a small piece

22
00:00:51,090 --> 00:00:53,100
of scrap yarn in a contrasting color,

23
00:00:53,100 --> 00:00:55,450
and don't forget to print
out your PDF pattern.
