We are to Day 4 of the Summer 2023 Mini Amigurumi Crochet Along, and I think that today's mini amigurumi is a camping classic. Can you have a camping trip without roasting marshmallows and making s'mores?
Actually I am not really a huge fan of marshmallows, they are way too sweet for me, but I do enjoy roasting them. I love trying to get the perfect golden brown where is is just starting to bubble and blister, but not burning. I will happily roast marshmallows for whoever wants them, I just don't want to eat them.
This little s'more is made with two crackers and a piece of chocolate that are all made the same way, the chocolate is just a little smaller. They are made by crocheting a chain, then working down both sides of the chain and then working continuous rounds until it is the size you need. This makes a sort of pocket shape that when you stitch the opening closed makes a double thick square.
In the middle of the chocolate square and the two crackers is fat little marshmallow with a smiley face.
