Miss Crochet Posted June 13, 2012 I've finally finally finally managed to figure out how to translate an idea I had in my head into an actual motif. This is my latest - daisy hexagon - and once I iron out a couple of wrinkles, I'll be looking for a few testers . It mightn't look it, but it's close to 12" in diameter, so hopefully a test afghan will work up quickly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Afghaniac Posted June 13, 2012 Very pretty. I think it also would make a lovely placemat (I'm on a placemat kick lately) -- with an additional round or so to make a scalloped or picot edging to turn it into a conventional placemat size. And it would make a spectacular afghan, with those giant daisylike flowers. If you'd like me to test your pattern, just PM me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peggy85225 Posted June 14, 2012 Love it, I too think it would also make a lovely place mat as well as an afghan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nira Posted June 21, 2012 I'm so partial to daisies! You'll have to let us know when the pattern is available! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terri/LadySorce Posted June 26, 2012 Very Nice!! I like the ideal of a placemat as well. I know a few hippies that would love them (actually, they would love it as an afghan or a placemat..LOL) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amdm Posted June 26, 2012 That is a really pretty motif. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Afghaniac Posted June 26, 2012 FWIW, for the past couple of weeks I've been playing around with cotton worsted yarn and various doily patterns and -- though many are pretty -- few are substantial enough as placemats for these days. I've only found one that works for me so far. But this daisy looks perfect. Basically, with these doily patterns, I'm getting used to learning symbol crochet then frogging to re-use the yarn for other projects. They're so "hole-ly"!

ddc Posted July 7, 2012 What a great pattern that would be for a scrap afghan - lots of pretty flowers with green borders. I'm waiting for the pattern too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
