Crochet: Garden Friends Pattern

I made these as solar covers for my son’s teachers at the end of school. They turned out so cute. I attached a note that read, “thank you for being a BRIGHT spot in Hayden’s life”. I wanted something they would use and I think they loved them. He is in the Spanish dual immersion program and one teacher refers to them as frogs and the other as owls. One teacher is also a cheerleader advisor at our high school and their mascot is a bee.

One of my testers, Shaunna Hallsson, slid one over her daughter’s ponytail. How cute is that!
