The aloe vera is a juicy plant famous for its medicinal and dietary properties. My mom kept an aloe vera plant in the bathroom, not for decoration, but for first aid for cuts, scrapes, and burns. The aloe vera amigurumi’s only claims to medicinal value are the soothing benefits of crochet and the relief from the guilt of forgetting to water it!
