TOMATO KNITTING PATTERNS
Without tomatoes we wouldn’t have ketchup, baked beans in tomato sauce, and pizza would be so dull! So thank you tomatoes for cheering up our meals! This free knitting pattern is for a happy little tomato …. this knitted tomato is life-sized, it would be a super way to encourage kids to eat their fruit and veg.
TECHNIQUES: All pieces are knitted flat (back and forth) on a pair of straight knitting needles. You will need to cast on and off, knit, purl, work a kfb increase and a k2tog decrease, and sew seams.
FINISHED SIZE: The tomato is approximately 4.5cm tall and 5.5cm diameter.
