This is how I made the tiny blue flowers on my Posy Cushion. Knitted on 2 needles. Abbreviations: K = Knit St(s) = Stitch(es) tbl = through back of loop RS = right side Tension (gauge) isn't important but if you use needles one or two sizes smaller than recommended for the yarn, you will get a more closely knitted flower. (I used Baby Cashmerino and 2.5mm needles.) Using blue, make slip knot on left hand needle and cast on 2 more sts (3 sts in total, RS facing). Cast off 2, knitting the last st tbl (1 petal made). *Slip the remaining stitch back onto the left hand needle, keeping the RS of knitting facing you. Do not turn the work. Cast on 2 more sts. Cast off 2, knitting last stitch tbl (this just makes a firmer straight edge). Repeat from * until you have a line of 5 petals. Fasten off leaving an end a few inches long. Thread this end onto a sewing needle. With the right side of the knitting facing you, use the needle to gather the straight edge, being careful not to twist the knitting. Draw up to form a flower and secure. Where the two end petals meet, secure with a tiny stitch. Darn in thread ends on the back of the flower, or leave long for sewing to whatever you like. Using yellow, make a French knot in the centre, or you could use a bead. You are welcome to this design for your own non-commercial use. It was designed a s a forget-me-not, but as a general small flower pattern it could be made in any colour. I hope you like it and will try it! ♥
