Ice Cream Cones

It’s been hotter than hell here recently, so I figured why not get the ice cream cones up while I’m still dreaming of eating them! 😀 They don’t stand up on their own, they’re a little top-heavy… But they’re perfect for clutching in a tiny little fist!

Materials:

• I used worsted weight tan, medium brown, cream, white, and pink.
• G-sized crochet hook. It’s not the size that’s important so I’m not including a gauge. I crochet pretty tightly, if your stitches are looser you may want to use a smaller hook. The important thing is to make sure that the stitches are tight enough to hold in the stuffing.
• I used polyfiber stuffing, but any stuffing will do.
• Scissors to cut the yarn.
• A needle with an eye big enough for yarn.
• Safety pin, optional.

Part of this is worked in continuous rounds. Use a stitch marker to keep your place and move it up as you complete rows. I use a safety pin and just put it through the last stitch of a round.
