Baseball Apple Cozy Cosy Crochet pattern by ThomasinaC | Knitting Patterns | LoveCrafts

Two patterns are included - each in UK and US terms. LARGE - to fit an apple with a circumference of up to 22.5 cm (9") SMALL - to fit an apple with a circumference of up to 20 cm (8") The small cosy has been designed specifically with a chocolate orange in mind. I always put one in the boy's Christmas Stockings so I thought this might make a nice disguise :) The baseball is worked as two flat, shaped pieces which are stitched together just like the real thing. The fastener option I have chosen for the pictures is a button with a flap. But, instructions are included for a hidden Velcro fastening if you prefer. If fruit cosies aren’t your thing, why not fill with ‘fiberfill’ and seam fully closed to make a lovely soft toy ball! YOU WILL NEED the following: LARGE: less than 50m white/cream DK yarn, a 3.50 mm hook, 8 stitch markers, a button (or Velcro if desired), 1.5 - 2 m (1½ - 2 yds) contrasting yarn and a needle for stitching the seams and neatening ends. SMALL: less than 50m white/cream DK yarn, a 3.50 mm hook, 4 stitch markers, a button (or Velcro if desired), 1.5 - 2 m (1½ - 2 yds) contrasting yarn and a needle for stitching the seams and neatening ends. Both sizes and versions have been fully tested.
