If you ask me, lemons are some of the most delicious fruits around.
For a starter, I just love the smell of squeezed lemons and I’ll always be grateful for lemon juice or lemonade on hot Summer days. It is so refreshing! Not to mention that lemon zest is the best secret ingredient when baking cakes.
Moreover, lemons are a great source of vitamin C.
So, what’s not to love about these cheerful, yellow fruits?!
I love them so much that every Summer, I happen to crochet something lemony. Be it an Amigurumi, a keychain, something for the kitchen, a little applique, etc.
