I wrote this pattern after struggling with a rather vague one I had bought.

The lavender pears are very popular and look wonderful in a thick and thin homespun yarn. 50 g of yarn should make about 4 pears. They need to be knitted tightly so there are no holes for the filling to fall out of!

I crocheted the leaf/leaves as I felt they needed to be more delicate.
