Forget Me Not Motif
Designed By Julie A. Bolduc
This motif would be best used in an afghan but it could also be made with thread for a dainty snowflake ornament. Imagine an afghan made with this motif made with several different colors. Then the motifs joined with one color. Such as black or white.
Materials Needed:
Scraps of worsted weight acrylic yarn can be used for each motif. I used
Barella4 in Federal Blue worsted weight yarn.
Size G/6 4.5mm aluminum crochet hook
Yarn Needle for weaving in ends
Yarn Thickness: 3mm
Gauge: 4sc=1"
Finished Size: 7"diameter
Skill Level: Beginner
