Flower block

still playing colour not right yet but like the bock....
remade the square too because l didn't like the joining colour now l like it better than the new lighter colour!....ooops

lighter joining yarn...

darker joining yarn...
think l need to take a break from woolly thoughts!
BUT I CAN'T STOP!! hehe
Played a bit more with the 12 petal flower but it doesn't suit my chunky blended yarn type of crochet
This is my favourite one so far..
mixed with the spike stitch block or this one may be...

But still not liking it as much as the finer version used by
Clever Cheshire Cat....
at a guess it looks like a cotton yarn Rachael has used for her pin cushions...........
stunning little gems
Take a look 'cos she is having a fab give away
Some lucky Devil will win a wonderful prize...so get your name down fast

8 petals suits the chunky yarn better

Hugs all enjoy your evening xx

  5. Thank you Suz for mentioning me :) I feel truly honoured. Your flowers look lovely to me and perhaps the 12 petal version would work better if the middle was a little smaller? The white flower granny squares look good enough to eat Xx

  8. Oh, these are just delicious. What a lovely sight on a grey January morning. I've had a knitting winter so far, but you've reminded me of all the little pieces of happiness I can make with a hook and some yarn, even with my special Two Left Thumb Technique. :)
