Blüten Appliqué

These cute little flowers are constructed to be knitted flat. They can be used as decorations, e.g. to applique them on a garment (e.g. wrist warmers or hats) or to create brooches (e.g. in combination with pearls or buttons). Knitting them can be quite addictive :)

Since this piece starts with a small stitch count and is generally a small project, it can be quite fiddly. It also uses techniques like short rows, provisional CO and grafting in garter stitch. Therefore, it is NOT a beginner pattern.

As to the name, Blüten is the german word for blossoms.
