Last week I talked about the
Blossom Blanket, this week, I talk about the
Blossom Trio!
The three pattern set debuted in Interweave Crochet in Spring 2010 and is now available on their
website.
Look at the model's t-shirt! It matches so well! The stylist did a great job finding it! What was I thinking? I was thinking of how could I put flowers on the headbands but try to make them blend into the background so that it looked like one fabric. I wanted it to almost look like a jacquard fabric. I needed flowers that were small enough to fit on the baby headband and some bigger ones for the toddler head tie. I also incorporated partial flowers thinking that I could use up more of the foundation crochet fabric and there would be less background showing. I also wanted to make it look more organic, like actual flowers. Actual flowers have petals missing and are perfectly imperfect. I think the baby headband turned out so sweet! It has a little piece of elastic sewn on the back to help it stay snug (but not too snug!) on baby. Little French knots are sprinkled here and there.
