Add a unique accessory to your sexually transmitted disease lesson with these crocheted plushies. The plushies are modeled after the cell of the bacteria and are quick to crochet up.

I am a health teacher and made these as visuals for my students. I hope your students enjoy them too!

Patterns are included to make syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia.
