10 Fingers – Crochet Quiet Book Page 10

10 Tiny Fingers helping planet Earth by reducing, reusing, and recycling! I am going to walk you through this tutorial on how to make the hand appliques. The recycle logo is definitely optional but I will include that pattern below as well.

I am making an Earth Day Crochet Counting Quiet Book! It will have a total of 10 pages and I will be posting each page separately in a series of 10 blog posts and then one final post to showcase the whole book and how to put it together. They will all be posted in time for Earth Day on April 22nd!

You can also use these “pages” as granny squares and create a blanket instead! Finished size of the pages/squares are approx 9×9.

Materials:
– Bernat Super Value Yarn in Oatmeal (choose any color for the skin! Skin tones come in all beautiful shades and colors!), Cool Blue, and Lush Green. Shop all colors HERE on Yarnspirations.com.
– Size H Crochet Hook
– Tapestry Needle
