Crochet Ice Cream Applique

Who doesn’t love some delicious gelato?! I love it so much I wanted to crochet it into a cute, little Ice Cream Applique!

Even though it’s still rainy outside and the Netherlands gets hit by a storm every weekend, I seem to have already started dreaming about summer and my favorite food, ice cream!

I crocheted a first version of the ice cream embellishment to decorate one of my Tunisian Crochet Cottage Potholders.

After the first applique prototype, I tweaked the pattern a little bit, and voila!

Pattern Notes

  • If the pattern says “sc 2”, it means that you have to crochet 1 sc in each of the next two sts.
  • […] – Crochet the instructions within square brackets all into the same indicated st.

Size

When crocheted with sport weight yarn and a 2.5-mm (C/2 US, 12 UK) crochet hook, you can expect an ice cream of about 2” (5 cm) by 1.5” (4 cm).

Gauge

This pattern is too small to accurately determine the gauge.
