How to Knit a Flower

[@JulieFleming-ss4vt]

I thought this was a great video. I used size 8 needles and cast on 51 stitches, then bound off 9 instead of 4. I slowed down my playback speed for the parts i needed, turned o the cc, and muted it because the slowed down version will drive you crazy listening to the instructions. Thank you! I love making these!

[@christinasoto9073]

Did I miss something or does this video end just when we're getting to the good stuff?? How do you make it look like a flower?

[@jackietillcock9328]

They flowers was great looking forward for some more found yours the easiest thankyou

[@glenisvaillancourt3295]

These flowers are so cute and would look so pretty on knit slippers

[@lindaelizabethcole3675]

That's a very easy pattern for knitting a flower , tried a few before and gave up , here in the UK , we call bind off a different name as in cast off , my friend has been asking me to knit her a red poppy for Remembrance Day we have here in the UK , 11th November each year , that will do nicely also I badly damaged a favourite mustard coloured cardigan using one of those bobble removing machines , now its full of tiny holes , but now using your little flowers as motifs I can upcycle my cardy again , thank you so much for sharing !!

the video makes it so easy to knit. thanks so much

[@darialay3472]

I can't wait to try this!

My first flower 🌹 not the greatest, but I am still new to knitting and learning everything. But it was easy to follow and I can't wait to make more thanks so much 😁

[@ajantajha7723]

Good tutorial.

[@joansiboni1743]

Thank you. I found a pattern using the same method of shaping thru bind off, but it did not have the four rows of knitting to start and came out pretty small. Will be using to dress up a hat.

I’m used to making tightly formed cabbage roses on dpns for embellishments on hats and scarves. Now that my hands are arthritic the way I used to make the roses is too difficult for me. This is a pretty and an easy flower to use instead. My youngest granddaughter loves a few on her hats! Thank you so much for sharing this!

[@tracyjacobs7862]

I sew the flowers onto knitted headbands, adding a bead at the centre 🏵️

[@patriciasicilia3569]

Very nice explanation. You didn't say how many rows to do of the stockinet stiching. Four doesn't seem enough for the full size. Is it 8 rows?

[@lyndalatour5610]

I love the video I think it’s really easy to do like I said, I just didn’t know what size needle to use

[@Charrnii]

Is there a possibility of a video showing the wet blocking process to get the shape?

[@elizaduckie7110]

The closest video to give you what you need is this one showing how to block crocheted motifs. The principles are the same. “Wet blocking” can be used for any fabric but “steam blocking” is entirely different! It can melt, or make so limp acrylic or acrylic blends, it is said to “kill” the fabric. Done properly (otherwise you will melt it) the acrylic fabric will drape and be silky, but will not hold a shape. For flowers you need them to hold shape.Watch the first motif being blocked as well, but ore relevantly she blocks a star shape in the second bit, at about 1:47. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2iYd4OifNx2jpY

@@elizaduckie7110 Thank you! :)

[@johnauths6473]

I tried it ans my flower makes a round wheel. How do I get petals?

[@JDana-ll6qz]

I tried this and it works great! Thanks for the demo!

[@TheBevgroom]

I have this pattern where you say draw the petals of the flower to the center with a single stitch. Please explain where you position your needle to do this

[@shyeast9093]

what do you mean by wet-lock?

[@josettesparks2176]

I like how you explain everything, thank you

[@Girlie6423]

What do you do with 51 stitches

[@daracarter8975]

Thank you so much. I really like how you jump right to it versus talking endlessly for 5 minutes like many other videos. I will definitely we watching more.

[@ellam422]

i know im late but how come the purple looked nothing like the red?

[@jenniferannfox2316]

this is great! thanks so much

[@lyndalatour5610]

I don’t know what size needle to use she doesn’t specify

[@dumfin4martin908]

It was t clear how to get 5 petals using 51 sts

[@choc_chip]

Agreed! I'm halfway through with 51 stitches, thinking I was making the full-size version but I seem to be headed for a 10-petal flower. I can't see why the 'demo' version isn't the only version?

[@amirthasenthilingam7107]

@@choc_chip thank you I will make lot of flowers 💐 and a placket for my godchild

[@janethuarac817]

I love it

[@3Dhyana]

I’ve been knitting Tea Cozies as gifts and had gotten bored so I thought some flowers on top would be interesting.

[@anntonks6181]

Very well explained thank u

[@moedamage]

What size needles and wool did you use?

[@jessiewheat2815]

Thank you so much!

[@riannaanoff]

I know its trivial, but I just can not see how you got the centre of the flower off the needle. the first time I did it, it all unravelled and I cant see how you do it. i've watched over and over in slow motion????

Not for a beginner. She goes so fast with a lot of new terminology for a beginner. :( I use to speak a lot faster. You just end up losing your intended audience.

[@kellysorensen7837]

You work to fast
