I’m so late posting about these! It’s September, and everyone has started going pumpkin spice crazy. At least here in Houston it is still in the 90s, so it’s still popsicle weather, if not popsicle season.
A couple of months ago I saw some popsicle holders on Pinterest and thought, wouldn’t that be a fun knit or crochet project? They are effectively a popsicle cozy, and I make cozies all the time. I came up with several ideas I wanted to make. My two-year-old is obsessed with dinosaurs right now, and I knew he would love a dinosaur popsicle holder. It seemed natural to crochet a dinosaur body and let the popsicle be the tail. These turned out too cute, and my two-year-old loves them!
Buy the e-book with all three patterns for $5 on Etsy here or on Ravelry here.
