So cute! I think this will be my crochet project for this afternoon!
I finished a whole set yesterday! They were so fast to make. Thanks for such a great pattern, Rachel.
Aww I am SO happy you posted this. I recently moved into my own house and I really wanted to do my kitchen in an apple theme! These will be so cute done in green and yellow too! Thanks so much!
I just made one of these last night while watching (ok – listening to) my favorite TV show. I can’t wait to make some more so I have a full set. I’m also going to made a slightly larger version as a potholder. Elizabeth – love the idea of doing them in green and yellow. I will definitely try that. These are such a fun way to use up scraps of yarn. Thanks, Rachel!
Question: Does anyone know how I can add my picture onto my comments? Thanks in advance.

I love this pattern. My mother has her kitchen done in apples, as well as my mother in law and I’m making them both a set as a gift. I also liked Lorelei’s idea about a larger version for a potholder; I was thinking something similar ,like a center piece for the table.
