Hi everyone!

Let’s kick off my summer fruit collection by making this adorable crochet blueberry! This is the first installment of a very fruity pattern collection (maybe the odd crochet veggie). If you’re a foodie, then these food crochet patterns may be for you!

The inspiration for this blueberry amigurumi may seem a little weird, but I was sitting around thinking about how I’d love to go to the farmer’s market and get some blueberries when I thought, “that would be cute to crochet.” The snowball kept rolling from there.

Clicking on certain links may result in a small commission for me at no extra cost to you. Money generated from this allows me to continue to design and post cute amigurumi patterns for you all!
