Apple
It's got a nice pucker in the top for the stem and leaf to sit in and I love the rich red color.
Orange
I developed this one without a pattern, just followed the basic increase and decrease as with the apple but made sure it stayed pretty round. I knit it in seed stitch to give it some texture and I gave it a flat little green stem so that it wasn't just an orange ball.
Peach
Banana
By far the toughest pattern due to the short row shaping to make the curvature. And the scale is a little off because it is a baby banana. I'm also not entirely convinced by the brown accent yarn along the edges. It does help it look more banana-like, but I don't think I did the best job of stitching it. I'm a knitter, not a seamstress.

Rad. Well done, milady! :D
Beautiful stuff, my friend. I'd be proud to have those in a wooden bowl on my dining room table if I didn't have dogs and two kids who'd destroy them. :)
that's adorable
I'm super impressed with your skills. You've given a great twist to displaying fruit baskets.
