CROCHET PATTERN
The Drumstick Rattle Originally, this little themed rattle was planned for a gift in 2017... Obviously, for whatever reason, I never got it out at that time. Well, since Thanksgiving is quickly approaching, I thought it was as good as time as any to clear up some more scrap files while offering my crocheting friends a little 'snack' I hope you enjoy creating this whimsical rattle for your littlest 'turkey'.. or for your fur baby to toy around with. | |
