Crochet Tiny Acorn

I had an awesome idea whilst unable to sleep one night that I can crochet myself some badges to wear at work. I work in a laboratory; there are many employees in said laboratory and we all have a lab coat each which, as you can probably imagine, all look the same. Due to this we decorate our lab coats with badges so that we can identify who's coat is who's. It also gives our attire a little bit of individuality.

The idea randomly came to me in the middle of the night that I can start crocheting my own badges. I have no idea why it took me so long to think of this. I immediately wanted to make a start but crocheting in the middle of the night, on a school night, is not a great idea.

At the minute is seems I have a thing for tiny crochet objects and I have been thinking about what objects I like that I can crochet small enough to wear as a badge. My first badge is relevant to the current season Autumn.

A little tiny acorn. I love it. Click Here for the pattern. 

I added a tiny green leaf just for an extra bit of detail. I made it the same way the stem is made and folded it over on itself. 

Hook off!
