1st Trimester Pregnancy Fruit Set
Not too long ago we found out we were pregnant, with twins! We are beyond excited and of course, had to add some crochet additions to our pictures. I decided, for the first trimester I would crochet little fruit, to document some of the weeks. Eleven through fourteen weeks pregnant, with a lime, plum, peach, and lemon.
According to different pregnancy books and websites, I came up with the approximate length the babies should be at each week and the corresponding fruit.
Materials:
All fruit use:
Worsted Weight Yarn #4 – Colors Below.
‘E’/3.5mm Crochet Hook
Tapestry Needle
Poly-Fil Stuffing
Stitch Marker
Lime: Vanna’s Choice in Kelly Green (approx 10 yards)
Plum: Vanna’s Choice in Purple (approx 18 yards) and Vanna’s Choice in Kelly Green (approx 2 yards)
Lemon: Red Heart with Love in Daffodil (approx 20 yards)
Peach: Caron Simply Soft in Persimmon (approx 30 yards)
Here is the approximate lengths the fruit should end up being:
11 Weeks – Lime – Length 1.61”
12 Weeks – Plum – Length 2.13”
13 Weeks – Peach – Length 2.91”
14 Weeks – Lemon – Length 3.42”
