I am already missing spring. I can’t wait to see all my fall bulbs start to come alive with spring flowers and bring back a rainbow of color to our rather gray yard. This week I decided to try something different and use ribbon instead of yarn. I had so much fun with this project. I think this flower would look sweet on a headband, dress, coat, or as a stylish bow on a handmade gift. One thing I learned while making this project was to be sure the ribbon you use is similar on both the right and wrong sides.

Skill Level:

Finished Size: 3″ (8 cm) long, 3″ (8 cm) wide

Materials:
3/8″ pink ribbon (3 yards)
3/8″ green ribbon (3 yards)
Crochet Hook H (5 mm)

Gauge:
Round 1 in pattern measures 1 1/4” (3 cm) in diameter.
