Flowers!

Postby Shandeh » Mon Jun 25, 2012 6:16 pm

I don't know about the rest of you, but it's wicked HOT in my neighborhood. Too hot to work on blankets or sweaters.

But, I still want to play with yarn! Since small projects are best in this kind of weather, I'm thinking it would be fun to make some flowers to use for decoration on future projects.

I know....Bernat doesn't have a Flowers pattern, but they DO have several patterns that include flower enhancements.

Sooo...instead of me pointing out every one of them....
Let's make it a game!

Just look through Bernat's free patterns, and let us know about the flowers you find. The flowers need to have their own instruction, so we can make them without making the entire project.

On your mark, get set, GO!!!
Your friendly Bernat Lady :D

I'm thinking I may make this rose pattern with felting wool. I want to make a facinator for the wedding I am going to in the UK this summer,

Nice! This flower is knitted, so that's a nice change from all the other crocheted versions.
Thanks for posting that photo of your sweet knitted flower! :D

Pretty! That will look nice on a shawl, a hat, a bag, or just anything!

I'm thinking of crocheting some pansies. I think they are so cute!
