Crocheters around the world are enjoying Crochet Bouquet, and I am thrilled! Now I’m having to rethink some of my crochet-along strategies. For instance, this post was going to start with something about bringing sunshine into the cold, wintry month of January. Now that so many of my readers live in the summery Southern Hemisphere, we’ll have to try something different.
How about this for a global opening?–
Let’s bring some sunshine into our homes this month with a Sunflower Crochet Along!
Two different sunflowers are on offer in Crochet Bouquet, both for intermediate-skill crocheters:
- The Sunflower (pages 71-72) looks lush and complicated, but it’s just the same petals over and over.
- Sunflower-on-a-Grid (pages 38-39) is a stylized flower with a filet center, which you can decorate with beads or buttons, or leave plain.
If you decide to use the crochet along button above on your blog or web site, please link it to this post.
Thanks!
Happy Statehood to Kansas, USA, whose State Flower is the Sunflower!
