Seeking crochet pattern for a grasshopper
Hello fellow crafters! Working on those Christmas crafts? I sure do love the smiles. I need some assistance please. I'm seeking a crochet pattern for a small grasshopper. Yes, I've looked online but those aren't what I'm looking for. Think of small Easter bunny size. I've looked through several craft books at JoAnnes and Michael's. But coming up short. I tried to be creative and make my own...but I'm sure the child doesn't want a Frankenstein grasshopper. Really... So I'm reaching out to my peeps...
