  1. Great flower! Very pretty, especially with the button. I love grape hyacinths, we used to have hundreds in the garden when I was little, except I used to pop all the bobbly bits off and drive my parents mad!

  5. Oh my! Your first attempt?! I only wish my first attempt looked anywhere near as pretty...I have been crocheting for a few years, but I was always too nervous to venture beyond the single crochet. I bought a great crochet book the other day, too. I don't know if you'll be able to find it or even if you'll be interested, but it's called "Stitch 'n Bitch Crochet: The Happy Hooker." The author is Debbie Stoller, and she is pretty funny. She makes it all so easy to understand, and it has a ton of modern, fun patterns! Have fun!

  6. I have been busy with the crocheted flowers too - yours looks great for a first attempt! - I'm loving the Spring flowers too - 2 bunches for £1 at the moment - lots of lovliness for such a small price! - Natalie x

Thank you so much for making the time to leave a comment. I really appreciate every one (even if I don't manage to reply to them all - I tend to get sidetracked quite easily) and it always brings a little smile to my face when I discover one in my inbox.
