“The Emilia Flower Garland uses five main colours however small crochet flowers are perfect for using up oddments of yarns and threads that you have left over from other projects to create more unique garlands. These crochet flower motifs can be easily scaled to suit any weight of yarn, just be sure to use the correct hook size for the yarn you do choose. This garland is also great for using up any snippets of fabric you might have in your scrap box, why not try small off cuts of lace or ribbon to create a more romantic looking garland?”

This pattern is great for beginners who love to crochet folk style flowers and would like to extend their skills beyond the very basic flower motif of my Pretty Peggy Garland.

The pattern includes full details of the materials, yarns and hook sizes used to create the garland pictured. It is written in UK crochet terms and includes stitch diagrams with a key in both UK and US terms. It also includes a step by step picture tutorial for the ‘magic loop’ starting method, as used in the largest flower motif.
