This crochet flower is out of the book “100 Flowers
to Knit or Crochet” by Lesley Stanfield. At first glance, it looked as if there
were so many flowers to make, but then I took a look at the patterns. My
pattern reading is not up to par, so it is quite difficult for me to understand
what is going on in most of the flower patterns! And forget even attempting to
decipher the knit ones (although they are really beautiful)! The “Lazy Daisy”
flower is my first attempt at one of these 100 or so flowers. I also made a
fern leaf to go along with it (which will come next week) to help accentuate
the flower. I intend to sew it onto a purple hat for wintertime. Enjoy! I hope
this pattern and the images on the book cover pique your interest and you go
out to purchase it to make more great flowers (and even vegetables) for your
projects!
