Now, we'll connect the mushrooms with a chain.
Attach cap colour yarn with a slip knot to the MC of one mushroom.
Ch 33. Ss to the MC of the other mushroom.
Fasten off. Weave in ends.


You can chain more or less, depending on how low or high you want your mushrooms to hang.

If you wish, you can embroider some spots on the caps.


Of course, you can mix and match with colours and sizes to make the exact Mushroom Bag Charm you desire.


How to Attach It to Your Bag
Fold the chain in half to make a loop.
Place the loop behind whatever you want to attach it to.
Pull both mushrooms through the loop.
Pull tight.



Happy crocheting!
