-PATTERN NOTES-
· I first seen these worms on a crochet group called 'Random Acts Of Crochet Kindness'. The ladies in the group were making these worms and leaving them around different places to make people smile. Imagine if everyone was as kind as them - the world would be a better place. So why not make your own Worry Worms and start spreading some happiness near you :)
· I did not design or create the Worry Worm ethos - the message is too good not to sharE.
· Pattern written using American terminology.
· Video tutorial can be found at the end of written pattern.

Keep me near and squeeze me tight,
Tell me your worries and I will make everything Alright!
