I know this is over due and I want to apologize to those who have been waiting impatiently for my next post (mom). I was so excited when I learned to purl because that meant I could do pretty much anything now so I dove in head first.
This project was my inspiration for learning to knit in the first place so I wanted to finish at least one before my next post. I saw this pattern in a crafty bridal magazine (no I'm not planning a wedding) and I just had to do it for myself. It's a knit rose! In the end I should have a full dozen and I can't wait to post pics of the whole bouquet. It might be a while before the dozen though, I'm still slow.
This is all it looks like after binding off (which I still need to learn to do correctly - it's still on the needle).
I think it looks awesome and would really make a unique bridal bouquet. P.S The green scarf is still in the works. I'm on the second ball of yarn!
