Tequila Sunrise Cocktail
Crochet Pattern by Melissa Trenado
You will need.. White Yarn (for the glass part) Orange Yarn Yellow Yarn Bright Yellow Yarn (for the lemon peel) Dark Red Yarn (for the cherry) Light Green Yarn (for the lime) Dark Green Yarn (for the lime) Fiberfill Stuffing Size D (3.25mm) crochet hook or a hook that you wont be able to see the stuffing through Yarn Needle Small piece of clean cardboard All the yarns I used were medium worsted weight, I used a mix of Red Heart Super Saver Solids and Loops and Threads Impeccable Solids. Before you begin notice that my cocktail has a small bottom, it wasn't impossible to stand but some people might want a wider bottom to make it easier to stand. I will add additional instructions if you choose to make the bottom wider.
