Crochet Towel Topper Pattern
It’s time for another quick project: the crochet towel topper-free pattern! I love that this is a perfect one-skein project that can be done in a few minutes.
I wanted to add my special touch, so I said the curls! My kids think the towel topper should be named “Octopus Towel Hanger.”
The crochet towel topper pattern and other fun projects are included in the Spring hop.
