Green Base (Zemini) To make the base flat and sturdy as seen in the photo, you can crochet two identical panels and join them together, inserting a piece of plastic or thick cardboard between them. Ch 25 to start. We will crochet on both sides of the chain to create an oval shape. Round 1: Starting from the 2nd chain from hook: 23 sc, 3 sc in the last chain stitch (corner turn). Turn to work along the opposite side of the chain: 22 sc, 1 inc in the last stitch. Continue for another 4-5 rounds, making 3 increases at each corner curve during each round until the base reaches the desired size shown in the image.
???? 5. Accessories (Ladybug & Flowers) Ladybug: Using red yarn, work 6 sc in MR -> 12 sc -> 18 sc. Crochet a few rounds flat, switch to black yarn, and decrease to close. Embroider small black dots on the back. Daisy: Using yellow yarn, make 5 sc in MR. Switch to white yarn. In each stitch, repeat the petal formula: (ch 2, 2 dc in the same stitch, ch 2, sl st in the same stitch). Lavender: Secure purple yarn to a green craft wire or crocheted stem. Work a pattern of (ch 4, sl st into the next stitch) wrapping around the stem to create the fluffy, textured lavender look. ???? Assembly and Finishing Touches Face Details: After securing the safety eyes onto the stems, use black embroidery thread to stitch a small "V" shaped mouth. Gently apply actual makeup blush to the cheeks. Attaching Caps and Stems: Take the firmly stuffed stems and center them perfectly under the flat covers of the mushroom caps. Sew them together securely using a seamless invisible stitch. Placing the Dots: Sew or fabric-glue the white dots onto the blue caps in an asymmetrical, natural-looking pattern. Final Setup on the Base: Sew the large and small mushrooms firmly onto the green base. Arrange the lavender stalks, daisies, and the little ladybug around them according to the arrangement in 1000108704.jpg, and secure everything in place.
