Flower Scarf

I saw this idea over on Applehead's blog, to make a scarf out of flowers. Here's her blog. http://applehead.typepad.com/applehead/
Here's her original post that inspired me. http://applehead.typepad.com/applehead/2006/05/100_flower_scar.html
Here's the pattern for her scarf. http://applehead.typepad.com/applehead/2006/05/100_flower_scar_1.html

Here's my take on that. It's not the same, but definately inspired by hers.



The small & medium flowers are made first then you connect them together with the large flowers in the last round.



Small Flower~with color 1 & hook G make 4. start with magic ring method. 5sc into ring. slst into first sc. Tighten ring. Then in first sc *ch 2, 2dc, ch2 slst back into sc* repeat from *to* in each sc (5 petals) finish off & weave in ends.



Medium Flower~ With color 2 & hook H make 4. Start with magic ring method. Ch 3, 9 dc into ring, slst in to top of ch 3. Tighten ring. *Ch2, 3dc in next dc, ch2, slst into next dc* repeat from*to* around.(5 petals) Finish off & weave in ends. This is the flower pattern I got on Little birdie's secrets blog. Here's my post with a link to it. http://crochetedsass.blogspot.com/2009/08/little-birdies-flowers.html



Large Flower~ with color 3 & hook J make 9.(attaching in the 2nd & 5th petals, except for the end ones attach those in just the 5th.) Ch3,9dc into ring, slst into top of ch3, *ch3,skip next dc, slst into next dc* repeat rom*to* around. (5 ch3 loops) In each ch3 loop^sc, 4dc, sc^. To attach flowers after second dc in petal make a slst in to the tip of the other flowers petal. slst into first sc of first petal. Finish off & weave in ends.

Hope my pattern is clear. Feel free to ask questions & I'll do my best to answer them.
