How to crochet carrot leaves
Ch 20 (Leave a long starting length since it will be used to attach carrot tops to carrot)

Starting in the second loop from end SC2, SC2 in next 9 stitches (this will only be half of the starting chain!), SlSt

Ch 10 (this will be a new branch off of the stem)

Starting in the second loop from end SC2, SC2 in next 9 stitches (this will bring you back to the beginning branch point), SlSt into next stitch of ORIGINAL chain. Fasten off
Crocheted carrot tops
ASSEMBLY:
Attach all three carrot tops to the center of the top of the carrot using a yarn needle. I found it easiest to thread all three strands of yarn though the same needle and attach them all at once. If you are making these carrots as play food for small children, make sure you attach the tops well and weave in the ends completely.
