Marianna's Medium Knitted Flowers



Marianna's Medium Size Knitted Flowers

Many knitters will enjoy making these sweet knitted flowers to embellish their projects.



  I used DK yarn and 4mm needles, and each flower measures 3" in diameter.
 
The small flower is to show the difference in size
from my existing pattern for small flowers.

  2. I fed the tail through the stitches from the opposite end, and pulled it tight, it makes a little crochet style effect in the centre, GORGEOUS!
