You might have noticed that I love crocheted flowers. (I've made numerous
broaches, added them to
hats and scarves, and even tried a
lace pattern) They are just so cute!
I came across
this pattern by a fellow blogger for a scarf, which is almost exactly what I was looking for this time! I made a couple of small changes. (I just had a slightly different vision than the creator--she did a fabulous job!) The biggest difference is that instead of having two pretty much separate chains between flowers I slip-stitched in each chain on the way back down.
(And, oh my gosh, I finally picked up some
tapestry needles to help in the tedious job of weaving in my
many unfinished ends. It helps so much! If you don't already have some get them!)
These all season flower scarves look great loosely wrapped around the neck a couple of times. Or you could use them as a belt or a hair band. In a future project I might try using crochet thread, since I liked the way
my first project with crochet thread turned out!
And believe it or not, but all of these yarns are 100% cotton and I found them at my local Dollar Tree!
After reading various blogs and product reviews I decided that E-6000 would be the best glue for these projects. If you try this at home, be sure to read all the instructions of whatever glue you decide to use. Pretty much whichever one you decide upon will require lots ventilation. I moved the kitchen table right next to an open window and positioned a fan to push the air outside. Also, at first I had some trouble with strings--but I started using a toothpick to spread the glue and that helped a lot!
