This is a thrift store or scrap yarn project.
Find some yarn that you like–either in your home stash or at your local thrift store, and transform it from to bright, fun, (easy care!) flowers.
Easy and quick for even beginner crocheters, this project will give you a quirky decor item for pennies, and will also help use up your stash of yarn leftovers.
The only extra equipment required is some crafting or floral wire and a package of 9.75″ bamboo skewers, plus a crochet hook. (I used a 4.5 mm crochet hook with my worsted weight–#4–chenille yarn.) You will also need a few metres of yarn (chenille #4 weight recommended).
Instructions include videos, supply list, graphic pattern, downloadable pdfs, and tips.
