For this years Arts Festival a local cool Christchurch crafty chick Lucy Arnold is organizing a bunch of us crochet peoples to make some flowers to “grow” up some trees around the square (website/blog). Crochet flowers are quick and satisfying to do, so I’m obviously in! I am not sure what I like more, the growing amount of colours in a yarny flowery pile or the churning through a bunch of flowers at once. Feeling quite satisfied that I can achieve something yarny and colourful in such a short amount of time. Happy *sigh*.
I have been looking around for patterns, because I tend do have fun going on my tangents wondering what would happen if i chained a few more and attached it here and there, crochet is so easy to make the odd thing up, the quickly pull apart and try again. At this rate I will not win the most crochet flowers rumoured competition, but I will do my share anyhow.
Some cute-si crochet patterns out there..
What a wonderful idea and I think it will make the trees feel loved, clever girl Simone:>)xo
Man, I can’t believe I didn’t know about a crochet flower project in Christchurch! I’ll have to investigate the blog. Just counted up though and I’ve got 5 crochet projects in varying degrees of completion… it will have to go on the list
