After seeing the Squished Rat Bookmark I made a friend asked me to make some bookmarks for her son’s teacher.   She liked the rat one but wanted something else,  later I got the screenshot you see on the left.   The right is what I made.     I guess she liked my versions because she bought both, I had planned on listing her rejected one on Etsy or where-ever.  

I had no pattern.   I used SC for the eraser and grey area, DC for the yellow.  Sc made it to bulky.  The apples are freehand, started with magic ring and 6 SC, next row 2 SC in each, 3rd row work SC and DC to make apple shape.
