Basic 5-petal blossom

I wanted to show y'all another small

blossom I have been working up this week.

I began these as a project to help a friend out who will be raising money

for her daughters Dance/Ballet school.

 

She had asked if I would be interested in sending them

some cute stuff to sell to raise some funds.

I of course said YES.

 

So here they are. Only 4 so far :)

I will be adding these to some ribbon lined alligator clips.

 

 

If you would like to make some of these yourself -

Here is what you will need -

 

 

(do you see my mason jar lid above? another project I am working on. I have about 20 of these

to work up. Once I finish them I will share what I'm doing with y'all. You will not see that

ugly gold when I'm done. Can't wait to get them done.)

 

I used a size 3 shimmer yarn

size F/ 3.75mm hook

small faux pearls or other beads of your choice

 

you can use any yarn you like

this would be perfect to use up those leftovers.

Just use a hook appropriate for your yarn size.

Remember the larger the yarn size, the larger the outcome of your blossom.

 

 

I followed this tutorial by Karen over at Todolwen: old to new Blog

I followed it exactly as she has wrote. She includes a diagram and a written pattern.

The one thing I did do different is I used a larger yarn. She uses a size 10 crochet thread.

Which I did use at first. But I currently only have that

in a light pink and I was looking for some cute colorful flowers

for the clips. So I turned to my favorite yarn - the Shimmer Yarn.

 

 

 

I hope y'all enjoy this little blossom pattern.

I would love to see what y'all come up with.
Feel free to comment below or email me with any

questions or to share your own work.

 

Wishing y'all a beautiful day,

May God bless all y'alls hearts.
