Hello everyone! I decided to create a cute crochet bee pattern to share with you all! I will be posting a video tutorial of this pattern to my YouTube channel guiding you step-by-step through the process of making it. This pattern is loosely based off the adorable bee from Minecraft, except for it being round! It is also in a chibi style with the eye placement and addition of blush.
Feel free to follow my video tutorial for an in depth guide into making this bee!

It is my very first time doing a bee.
Thank you for sharing! It was super easy to follow your instructions. I appreciate it
Hi Taylor,
You mentioned in one of the videos you were accepting ideas for a future projects. What do you think of a beehive? I made five more of these bees. They're getting better and better, and I think a beehive as the top like a mobile would be super cool!
I'm definitely going to try more of your patterns. Thanks again for sharing and teaching your skills.
