Les petite fleurs.

I just had to start something from the book. A little something. Quick, satisfying...just a little knitting away from my current projects.
Flowers, yes, that's it. Use up some scrap yarn...and create these:


Made with a little knit picks elegance...left over from this beauty.


Made with cashmerino aran...oh so nice...left over from some unphotographed twin bolero sweaters. (I made them in February...they are wearing them in a wedding over the flower girl dresses at the end of the month, I'll get a shot then!)


Made with cashmerino aran again, and a little zara...left over from last years christmas knits-hats and socks.


My favourite. Made with Debbie Bliss Alpaca Silk left over from this...and there is still more!

I love them. Pinned on a coat? Clipped on a shawl? How about a hair clip? I see more in the near future!

Oooh, so pretty! Now I know what to do what all those little bits of nice yarn I have.

Here's an idea for your flowers: trim a hat! :)

I love the flowers!!! They would be good as Christmas tree decorations also. I already have a tendency to use leftover yarn in the girl's hair for ribbons...these are much better!

Very pretty. Now you have that "special touch" ready when you need it.
