MORE FLOWERS

August 30, 2009 by jd wolfe

Seems as if people are always asking for free patterns for crochet flowers.  There are so many ways to use these lovelies.  Applique them to purses or jackets, join to create a textured shawl of capelet, add to a headband or bookbag.  The possibilities are limited only to your creativity and ideas of practicality.

Here are some newer links to pretty flowers I’ve found.  These would be pretty layered on a purse with bead or button centers:

Use up all your fun fur or other novelty yarns to create some pretty flowers like this:

I’m particularly fond of freeforming my own flowers – somewhat like this piece:

With a little experimentation and very little effort, you can learn to freeform crochet your own flowers.  Go to this site for a good practice piece of freeform:
