The inspiration for this little flower came from my Slouchy Hat Pattern. I love the way the crown of the hat is wavy instead of flat, and I thought to myself, why not take that concept and make a simple wavy flower? Easy peasy!
I wrote down two variations of this flower – one small (about 2.25″ wide) and one medium (2.75″ wide). They can be used separately, or layered to make a doubly-cute version.
I finished mine off with some gorgeous shank buttons. I have a terrible habit of taking my newly purchased buttons off of their packaging for storage in my craft box, so I don’t know the brand name, but I am relatively positive I bought them at Hobby Lobby.
I hope you love this beginner-friendly pattern!
Layering the two sizes (optional)
To layer, simply use the starting tail from the smaller flower and, using a yarn needle, stick it through the hole of the larger flower (I add my shank button first); then tie a couple of knots to secure, and weave in ends. (Or leave a tail for sewing onto a project.)
