I will review the book in full when I’ve completed more patterns, but so far I appreciate how varied and creative it is. Out of all the crochet ice cream cones I made, this was my husband’s favorite! This one was really simple and fun.

I decided faces on my ice cream were a bit too cute for my tastes, but instructions on how to do it are clearly labeled. There are also very clear photo instructions for each step including how to sew the pieces together if sewing is something you’re still trying to learn.
Pattern notes:
These patterns use * instead of ( as is used in some other patterns, but those mean the same thing.
