Must-Have Mini CAL 2 - Radish

We’re kicking off with.. the radish. Fresh, spicy, and beautiful on top of that! What else could you possibly want?! Make a radish with leaves, without leaves, and you can even make a few slices as the finishing touch.

How do you prefer eating your radishes? We love eating them with lettuce on a tasty cracker for lunch. Yum!

Please show us on social media how your radishes turned out! Use #MustHaveMiniCAL so everyone can enjoy your tasty veggies.

Love, Manon

Baste the yarn through the outer loops (6) of the last round and pull tight.
Tie a knot if necessary and don’t weave this end is. It’ll be the root of the radish.

Weave in alle ends.

Work 2 more leaves exactly like the first one.
Attach the 3 leaves to the end of the stem using a strand of 087. Tie them on top of the radish with a firm knot. Weave in all ends.

Round 2: *sc 1, sc 2 in next st* x 6 (18) and switch to color 033
