I used this yummy bulky wool meant for felting.
After they were crocheted, I felted the whole works in hot water and soap.
They are really fuzzy and colorful and fun!
I also made a few larger flowers with cotton yarn. These three white blooms are going to be worked into a scarf, I *think* with some others I made that are a variegated daffodil yellow and white. OR, I might do a free form crochet purse. I'm not sure yet. These I have just sat and worked on in those spare moments when there is not enough time to get out the cross stitch.
the pink felted ones look specially nice. Good idea to have this kind of work on hand for when waiting in the doctors office etc.
ReplyDeletei love crocheting flowers - great for embellishing and other artful fun!

ReplyDeleteCrocheting is also handy for those "Airport" waits, too!
