Pattern Instructions:
Starting with White Yarn:
- Start by making a slip knot and chain 14.
- Skip the last chain, starting from the second chain, insert your hook through the top loop only and make a single crochet.
- Single crochet across to the end, you should have 13 stitches.
- For the 2nd row and onwards, chain 1, turn your work, and make single crochets across. Make sure the starting chain is not twisted.
Continue until you have 13 rows, creating a square with 13 stitches in each row.
Working the Edges:
- Insert a stitch marker close to where you ended to mark the beginning of the round.
- Chain 1, then work a single crochet along each edge of the square to create a border. Ensure you have 13 stitches on each side.
Changing to Brown Yarn:
- After completing the border, change to brown yarn, and work around for 10 rounds with no increases or decreases.
Switching to Red Yarn:
- Change to red yarn and work one round through the front loops only.
- Work three more rounds normally with one single crochet in each stitch.
Creating the Roof:
- Start incorporating decreases to shape the roof. (For specific decrease instructions, please refer to the detailed part of the pattern regarding decrease rows).
Making the Spot:
- Begin with a magic circle and make six single crochets into the circle.
- Close the circle and continue following the instructions to create the desired number of spots. Attach these spots randomly on the mushroom cap.
Crafting and Attaching the Door:
- Start with red yarn, make a slipknot, and chain 6.
- Skip the last stitch from the chain, then single crochet in each stitch across, increasing at specified points to shape the door.
- Switch to white yarn towards the top part of the door.
- Sew the door onto your mushroom house and attach the button as a door handle.
Finishing Touches:
