Foophy Fruit Friends Crochet Pattern

Cro-Shake has finally released a NEW PATTERN!! She's been mass producing these for weeks and decided to write up the pattern. These cute little friends have been in high demand ever since she created the first one for her big sister.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN, PLEASE GO ADD A FAVORITE HEART & YOUR PROJECT TO THIS PATTERN ON RAVELRY!

To say these kiddos have an addiction to anything soft and squishy would be an understatement. These squish balls are a hit for all ages, including her 24-year-old sister.

I have been waiting patiently for over a year to be handed another design to type up. This time she wanted it to be more professional, so we went with a more trending template. After I typed it up, she made some changes, and we sent it off to my amazing superhero tester team.

Final edits are in, it's listed for sale, and now I get to add it to my blog to share with all of you!!!
