Saskia about her Katia Capri Colour Pack:
"I get so happy from these colours. The composition is well balanced and the pack makes sure you can get started right away. I love to pick colours beforehand and thinking about what project to make with it afterwards.
With this pattern I wanted to combine the colours with each other, and how better than in a beautiful floral bunting? The coloured flowers are joined beautifully and the white petals gives it a nice balance. I added the fringes for a playful effect."
Materials:
- Saskia's Capri Colour Pack

Tips!
- Start each round in a different place. This way you can mask the woven in ends.
- The last round consists of chains. Weaving in the ends will be difficult so tie a double knot and then cut the yarn.
- Crochet the flowers together in the last round. Replace 1 chain by 1 slip stitch in the chain space of the other flower.
This way you crochet the flowers in a different colour combination:
- Work round 1: 3 pieces of each colour (except for white).
- Work round 2 in white.
- Work round 3 with the colour you haven't used yet.
