Hey there, wire crochet friends of mine !
So, here's the deal: I've been messing around with wire crochet flowers recently and I've got a hunch that you're going to dig what I've been up to. It's a simple concept, but the end result is pretty remarkable. You might just get the itch to whip up a bouquet of your own!
Now, here's the kicker: I didn't crochet anything new for this project. Nope, I decided to make use of pieces I already had on hand. They were all set and ready for a transformation. If you know your way around my patterns, you should recognize most of them, with one exception. Can you figure out which one?
This week, I was all set to continue working on our good old Hamsa shapes. But then, something unexpected happened: the artichokes drying by my window started to flourish in the most mind-blowing color, completely turning my plans upside down. The sight of them got me thinking about flowers, and well, here we are.
And let's be honest, it's not really a level playing field when it comes to flowers and Hamsas. Yes, Hamsas are pretty cool all year round, but flowers in full bloom? They're hard to beat.
A few years ago, one of our group members started fiddling with wire crocheting flowers. Rings a bell? Well, how about we bring that back?
Here's my proposition: let's make wire crochet flowers and stick them on, well, a stick. Picture a bouquet of these ever-lasting, wire-crafted blooms decorating your home. Sounds pretty awesome, right?
So, what do you reckon? Are you up for a challenge? Let's get those hands busy and see what kind of floral magic we can create.
Keep it creative, folks!
I will post this on the YoolaISK group so you can let me know what you think and join the fun.
p.s. here are the patterns used to make most of these flowers
Love,
Yoola
