These nuggets are made with amazing gifting potential in mind – think emotional support gifts, teacher gifts, and most of all: craft fairs and markets! They work up quickly and have endless possibilities when it comes to customization.
My Emotional Support foods are part of a playful crochet series inspired by “comfort foods” and the joy they bring. They’re perfect as gifts, for craft fairs, etc.!
