In addition to the crochet pattern, the kit also includes a list of materials needed to complete the project. The yarn used in the pattern is super bulky weight, which makes the pies nice and plump, and the yarn is available in a variety of colors, so you can make pies in any color you like.

Whether you’re looking for a fun and unique home decor project, or a thoughtful and handmade gift, the Fruit Pies crochet pattern is a great choice. With its easy-to-follow instructions and adorable finished product, you can’t go wrong with this pattern.

There are a few ways to add fragrance to the crochet Fruit Pies pattern. One way would be to add a few drops of fragrance oil to the yarn before starting the crochet project. You can use your favorite scented oil, such as vanilla, cinnamon, or apple, which will infuse the yarn with the fragrance. You can also try adding a few drops of essential oils into the stuffing of the pies after they are done.

Another way to add fragrance to the pies is to create a sachet of dried herbs or spices such as cinnamon sticks, cloves, or nutmeg and place it inside the pie after the project is completed. The scent of the herbs or spices will infuse the pies with a pleasant aroma.

You could also use a scented wax disc or a scented candle to add fragrance to the pies. Simply place the candle or disc next to the pies and allow the scent to permeate the room.

Lastly, you could also use a room spray to add fragrance to the pies. Spray the room with the scent of your choice and the pies will absorb the fragrance.

It’s important to keep in mind that, as these are crochet items, you should be careful when adding fragrance, especially if you are going to give them as a gift, as some people may be allergic to certain fragrances.
