Crochet a bounty of beauty of flowers. This project is a delightful way to learn a variety of new stitches. It’s also a terrific--and thrifty-- method for using up bits and pieces of leftover yarns.

The pattern says the pillows are made in two sizes. Directions are for a smaller size; changes for a larger size follow in the parentheses. No where in the pattern are the finished dimensions shown.

The actual directions for the flowers are given in the pattern for the Flower Garden Afghan from the same magazine as the flowers are used to embellish that afghan.

Materials: Unger Roly Poly (3.5 oz.) balls); 3 green, 2 brick, scraps of remaining colors from afghan for flowers

Hook: Size G aluminum crochet hook, or size to obtain gauge given below;

Gauge: 6 stitches = 2”; 4 rows = 2”
