Hi Everybody,
Today I am not creating a card instead I am adding the vidoe on how I made these beautiful roses and the technique is very easy to do.
I used two hooks, a 4.00 mm and a 5.00 mm hook and just everyday DK yarn that is acrylic.
The stamens I have had for a long time and although I have used them in lots of flowers they never seem to diminish
They don't take a lot of yarn either so it is a good way to use up end of rolls that you may have left over.
These are a little too big to add to a card but if you made them smaller they would fit perfect.
I am very pleased with it and the cat loves it too. The finished size of the blanket is 3ft wide x 4' 6" long and it blends with the furnishings in my lounge
I have managed to put most of the flowers I have made to good use in one project or another and so nothing has been a waste of time or effort.
Hope you like
Bye for now ...
Hugs xx
Hi Christina, your roses are lovely you've made a fab job of your blanket, its nice to see an older craft of crochet finding new life, I make poppies each year for November and find them very restful to sit & crochet . I hope you've enjoyed your change from cards. Take care Doris Shawcross
