“She thought I’d forgotten…”
Every winter, Grandma and I gathered pine cones in the woods. When I gave her this crochet pine cone, she went quiet. Then she whispered, “You remembered.”
With this pattern you crochet exactly that kind of moment: a pine cone so real people look twice – and a gift nobody forgets.

For the whole family
A small Christmas tradition you pass on, stitch by stitch.
So real, people look twice

Green needle leaves
Eight crochet leaves on top add a fresh touch of evergreen.
With a hanging loop
