Toadstool Ring Holder (Crochet Pattern)

Toadstools are the cutest! So when I was asked by a customer to make a larger toadstool container, I couldn’t say “no.” But don’t be deceived by the word “larger.” This adorable container is still very small with a diameter of 2 inches and a height – about 2.5 inches.

Materials:

1. Thread – Lizbeth 10: white and red
2. Crochet hook: Clover Amour, 1.50 mm
3. Sewing needle
4. Scissors

Abbreviations:

mr – magic ring

ch – chain

sl st – slip stitch

sc – single crochet

inc – increase

dec – decrease (use invisible decrease)

Pattern:

Start with the base or the container. Use Lizbeth 10 white thread. Join each round with a slip stitch and chain 1.

Keep your stitches tight.

Round 1: mr, ch 1, 8 sc in the ring – 8 sts

Round 2: 8 inc – 16 sts

Round 3: (sc, inc) x 8 – 24 sts

Fasten off and weave in the ends.

Once you finish both parts, you can create the spots of the toadstool either by cross stitching them or by sewing hashtags. See my miniature toadstool container pattern for an example: MINIATURE TOADSTOOL.

I chose to cross stitch the spots. I made a few different sizes. See picture below.

Your container is complete! You can use it to store small items such as safety pins, paper clips, stitch markers, buttons, etc. Or you can use it as a doll house for a small doll.

I hope you enjoyed this pattern!

Happy Crochet!
