It all began with this tutorial for a lovely crochet necklace for an acorn from Resurrection Fern...
then Berlin's Whimsy found that it makes a perfect pouch for flowers and added a Solomon's Knot ...
then A Foothill Home Companion created a tutorial for acorns that are missing their cap for a new kind of necklace!
The crochet is all done with chain stitch and single crochet so it is appropriate for beginners to try or you could make one to give to your favorite nature lover to take on their next outing :)
