Stage one in producing a knitted flower ....
- I knit a green hollow stem (important that it's threaded with ribbon before felting, or otherwise it will felt to itself and you'll be unable to put a wire through!). I then continued in red with a 3-petal piece.
- I knit a second 3-petal piece in red, as the photo above. The 12" ruler shows the length before felting.
- After felting, the second set of petals fits inside the first, stamen are added to a loop on a length of stiff wire, which is then pushed through the green stem.
