Toadstools in Spring

I’ve seen those mushrooms in springtime colors in decoration stores. I bought two wooden ones in nice pastel colors at Xenos.

I thought they might need some crocheted friends. Couldn’t find a pattern I liked 100 % on ravelry, so I made up my own.

Note: I recommend using the “invisible increase” instead of sc2tog. It looks much better (see picture).
