Happy National Candy Corn Day! Of course I had to celebrate that by creating a tiny crochet candy corn pattern of my own, which makes Day 30’s candy a teeny Candy Corn, It’s so little and cute! I don’t enjoy eating candy corns, but I do think they are adorable. All of the colors are so fun, and being wrapped up in a tiny package makes them perfectly put together. I’m on my honeymoon right now so today’s post is very brief! I do want you do be able to make the pattern though, so I made sure to share it. Hope you like it!
