Thanksgiving Turkey Leg! (crochet)

Happy November everybody! My name is Molly, from @louloopsco on IG! Now that we’ve had our spooky season, we can move to the next best holiday: Thanksgiving (because of the food, DUH)! Continuing on with our crochet food series, I decided we NEEDED to add a turkey leg into the mix 🙂 This is a super simple beginner pattern that works in the round, so let’s get started!

Round 3: Sc in the first, inc in the next, all the way around (24).

Pause to stuff.
