  6. Hi Suz,

    I love them!!!
    Now for the second day running you have read my mind.
    Yesterday I was able to make two of these flowers, because I got it!! after reading your post.
    Well I made them with a 3.5 hook but used different yarns and one was bigger than the other, so I lied them on top of each other and thought, now that looks good.
    And low and behold you have done them like that too today.
    Great I love your colours!!!
    Thanks again for the inspiration.
    Have a great day.
    Now I can't wait for your next post!!!
    Best Wishes,

    Chris Xx

  10. I have been doing my flowers the same way as the chart, which is the same as you do them I think? Yours are my favourites that I've seen so far. I love Lucy's and Elizabeth Cat's too but I like your colours best of all and I think the pattern looks best as it is - rather than doing an extra row. The layered version looks wonderful!

  13. They look so great layered up like that. Now I have a question for you - just how fast do you crochet? If there's a crochet olympics I reckon you'd be a strong contender!

  14. Love them...I'm still struggling with the last 2 rows..I'm not to clever at following charts..
    How do I order some wool..do you have a colour chart?
