Brightening up my mood with this happy pendant

I don’t know about you but sometimes I find the period after the start of the new year a bit bleak. After all the celebrating and spending time with family the dreariness of January really hits home! So I decided to crochet something to make me smile (it is after all, the motto of my shop…)

Fits many chains…

I crocheted this chilli pepper pendant using embroidery thread and made the pattern up as I went along. I’m really pleased with it; I think I will list this one in my shop and crochet another one for me in another red I have lying around! It took a couple of hours because even though it is small I used a tiny hook so it took a while to grow!
I made a chain out of more embroidery thread but I put a large loop on the top of the chilli so I can string it on whatever I like.

Looks good on a long chain!
