Product Details
A knit & felt pincushion of the month pattern, the month of June.
Bees are a sign of summer and all things warm and golden. The beehive is where the queen hangs her crown at the end of a buzzy-day. Knit and felt a whimsical 4.5-inch / 11.4 cm beehive as a tribute to the hardest worker out there! Add a bee pin or two for the “crowning” touch to your pincushion!
The pattern begins at the base, creating an opening to be later used for stuffing, and works upwards to the top. The beehive is knit as one continuous piece including purl rounds that will be picked up later for the beehive’s I-Cord ridges. Strands of raffia are knitted along with the yarn when knitting the horizontal ridges, to create a straw-like quality once felted.
Your Queen Bee-Hive is now ready for some early summer gift giving!
