You can use leftover yarn from previous projects. You can also use some shades of pink instead of red. Or even make a small strawberry light green for imitating immature berry.Measurement:Large strawberry is approx. 2 inches (5 cm) high and 1.3 inches (3.3 cm) wide.Small strawberry is approx. 1.4 inches (3.5 cm) high and 0.9 inches (2.2 cm) wide.Note: Sizes may vary depending on the yarn and the size of crochet hook used.
