Knitted Flowers is a collection of 30 pretty projects to create floral displays, accessories and decorations from yarn.



Show someone you care by giving them a bunch of flowers, but instead of the kind that will be past their best in a few days’ time, why not knit them instead? With 30 beautiful blooms to choose from, including poppy, violet, gerbera, clematis and rose, there’s sure to be a favourite for everyone. There are plenty of other ways you can enjoy these adaptable makes, too: create a flower garland, or use them to embellish cushion covers, brooch backs, hair slides or key rings. These charming projects will bring a smile to all who receive them, and will give you hours of pleasure when knitting them. With detailed colour photographs of each flower and clear instructions, it’s never been easier to grab your knitting needles and turn your stash of yarn remnants into floral works of art.



Projects include: poppy, violet, gerbera, clematis and rose.

Sian has also taught at London College of Fashion on their knitwear course. She now lives on the south Devon coast, and designs handknits for several magazines and yarn companies. Sian has written several books on knitting, including The Knitted Home for GMC Publications.
