Cheery Cherry Amigurumi

"Make these cute and easy Cheery Cherry amigurumi! Made with worsted weight yarn and sizes E (3.5mm) and F (3.75mm) crochet hooks, these fun little cherries work up quickly - sometimes as fast as 30 minutes! Skills needed include single crochet, working in the round, weaving in ends, and some light sewing (to attach the leaves/stem). Some embroidery is also required to make their little smiles but don't worry if you aren't familiar with how to do this - there are photos to guide you along the way! "
