        Thanks Paula, the flower is actually knitted. When I first looked at pattern I just presumed it was a crochet flower, but just one knitted row gathered up.

      Well done Lyn. It is really cute. My grand children make pom poms out of alot of my spare balls, but i still have plenty of left over wool.

      I love really nice items like this that are made of leftovers - I am always looking for ideas to use up oddballs in my yarn stash.

        The pattern came from a knitting book I found in an Op shop for $1. It is nice to use up bits and bobs of yarn, especially as other half seems to think the yarn is breeding in the boxes under the bed! 🧶
