Decisions… Decisions…
Just crocheted a fuchsia flower. One of my favorite colors. Should I wear this on my hair? On a straw hat? On a tote bag? As a brooch for my jacket or should just give this one away (as usual) and let someone else decide?
Here goes the free pattern for a Croco-Flower. It’s quite easy and gives you an interesting 3-D effect. It can be worked in any yarn weight. However, heavier weight yarns like worsted or bulky weights works best to give it a sturdier and nice texture. Even the good ol’ Red Heart Super Saver works fine for this flower. Enjoy it!
