This is the pattern for a train caboose appliqué. I do have this pattern available for free on my website if you would prefer that option. The link is down below, but I’ve made it available for people to download as well for $1 on Ravelry.

This is part of a train series that I’ve designed which you can get individually or as a set.

There is also a video tutorial for the pattern available on my YouTube channel at Crochet Train Caboose Tutorial.

I’ve used 4 ply cotton and a 1.25mm crochet hook but you can use different sizes depending on what you’re most comfortable with.

• Small amounts of desired colours of cotton or wool, I used 4 colours, red, black, yellow and grey.

• Crochet hook, I used a 1.25mm hook.

• Scissors.

• Sewing thread and needle to stitch the caboose together.

• A darning needle to weave in ends.
