My last was a knitted hat with a huge knitted flower (a restful project for boxing day) My first of 2010 was a flowery brooch made for my sister in laws birthday. Photos of the hat can be seen on my new years mosaic - I'll be doing instructions for the brooch in the next couple of days. I love your Kanzashi flower - definately putting it on my list of things to try - thanks for the inspiration!Mousy Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901095587872540860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2588109276242760886.post-75474121459335151452010-01-06T19:49:02.133-08:002010-01-06T19:49:02.133-08:00Pink Little Cake,
