Today's square from Melissa's CAL:
Flowery Square by Adaiha {pattern here} |
If it's flowery, it's for me! I had attempted these layered flowers before and haven't had the greatest success. It must have been the way Adaiha wrote her directions, or her technique of attaching a chain to the back stitches of the previous flower, but it clicked for me. I'm not saying I did it correctly (honestly I think my two larger flowers are facing the wrong way), but it worked!
And I finally caught onto photographing my square from the side to show the texture (hey it's only day 11!):
Isn't that Bee-you-Tee-ful?!
Oh my gosh! It is beautiful! :) I may be a bit partial though. I think the outer two layers of petals are indeed backwards, but I think the back of crochet stitches can be prettier than the front.
