Lil Fishy Applique
Appliques are a wonderful way to add personality to your crochet projects. I want to share with you my favorite little applique pattern.

I originally made this Lil Fish for a blanket I used to teach my daughter her ABCs. F is for Fish of course.

I hope you enjoy this free pattern. You can purchase the entire PDF digital pattern in my Etsy shop here https://www.etsy.com/listing/867777057/crochet-fish-applique-digital-pattern?ref=shop_home_active_1

And as always, please share a photo of your crochet project with me on Instagram. I would love to see your awesome creation.
