Continuing my current preoccupation with flowers (all those bunny names) I wanted to create an easy pattern for a crocheted flower yesterday. I kept on until I made one that was both simple and versatile and came up with these flowers...
..which are mounted here as brooches. The flower could be used for decorating anything from a tea cosy to a hairband and the size will vary according to the yarn used. It REALLY is easy and I will be publishing the pattern FREE on Ravelry very soon. Just got to take some pictures as I make one, for the pattern...
Meanwhile, here are some close ups...
I used a single, aran-weight fancy yarn by Louisa Harding for these two...
A mixture of cotton (from here) and Rowan Kidsilk Night to make these...
...a mixture of the Planet Penny cotton and a pure silk by Debbie Bliss, I think, to make this one...
...and some Noro with angora in, fairly heavy weight - not sure of the name - to make this one...
I'll let you know when I publish the pattern!

G'day Penny. As usual, your work is just beautiful. I love them all. Take care. Liz...
Isn't it amazing how different yarns give the flower a different look........very pretty.
I saw that Louisa Harding yarn by your sofa last week. It looks great as a flower. All your things are fab Penny. xx
