Creative Friday


Knitted Daisy Flower

I am almost finished knitting flower patterns for my 'Knitting Flowers' e-book, this is the daisy pattern I worked on yesterday. I love Daisy flowers, they are happy little blooms. I am so excited to share this e-book with you, I can't wait in fact! I am just kitting up a rose bud pattern and then the book will be complete and sent off to the publishers next week. For now I am checking spelling and grammar, making sure I have the correct font, line spacing and picture size.
PS Let me know if there is a specific flower you would like included and perhaps I can add just one more:) I know, I can't help it, knitting flowers is addictive!

If you would like to read my updates for the release of the e-book, you can follow them on my Mamma4earth Facebook page.

  9. Linda--Do you knit the stem over a wire or pipe cleaner or something, or are they left soft so that they can be tied to things? Adorable!

    1. Hi Heather,
      Thank you:)
      I knit the stem and then pull a pipe cleaner through. I am also going to use florist wire. Sometimes I knit around the pipe cleaner.
      But leaving the stem empty to tie the flowers onto something is such a good idea, thanks!

  13. Happy Friday everyone! I haven't linked for some time and am glad to read all the nice comments! Linda, I love all your knitted/crocheted flower and veggies! Oddly though, I really love the stems the best! The neat, round, variegated I-cord make what's on top look superb!

    Best,
