Flower Power!

Do you remember this photo of the colorful cotton yarn I had bought?
Well, I crocheted and crocheted until I had 80 little flowers and then jointed them together to make these two scarves for two special young girls.
So colorful!
So fun! And if you want to try making one yourself, you can find the pattern here.

  11. Ya Iove them as scarves. but i love the single little flowers too that is what I use and always find them in ivory which is great but when I saw your colors I went wow!! I use them as collars mainly for the dolls I make Your colors inspired me to move beyond my neutral safe palette zone. HMMM would you do me some commission work ???? Let me know if it sounds too boring or what for the life of me I cannot get myself to crochet ,not my gift,I love how you put them all together too. Am I rambling? Hey even if you did me some white cotton ones I could dye them right?? never thought of that You have inspired me Girl!!! let me know your thougths no pressure. just love them sweets!!!

  14. What a neat design. My wife has been wearing her new scarf almost everyday this week as the weather has been between 10-20°F. She just loves it and I mine. I will email you a picture of us wearing them high in the mountains on one of our hikes someday.:)
