Joining @Wigglet@beehaw.org in the quest to fill this place with fun craft projects. Yesterday was sewing, today I present to you…wedding crochet!
I taught my bf (ok yes now husband but that sounds weird still) to crochet last year, so we made these simple little crochet flowers together for our small ceremony a couple months ago. The smaller white flowers are just artificial Baby’s Breath from Amazon.
The pattern was Crochet Ranunculus from Moara Crochet but fair warning that the written version didn’t make much sense and the video was much better. There’s lots of blue and white sock yarn left over so I may yet end up with some kind of souvenir ankle socks out of it.
My ribbon wrapping technique left a bit to be desired but it was the night before and things were fraught!
Tried to sew my own wedding dress too but that was a fail so I just picked up a £30 thing off Amazon. Worked out just fine!

What a great idea! I love that you both worked on the flowers. And your picture is lovely!
Thank you! Definitely came in handy that I’d already taught him, although I can’t seem to teach him to stop calling his hook a “duck” for some reason that I’ll never understand 😅

These are gorgeous!! I love that you can keep them forever 💙
Yessss exactly, they live in my craft room now (and constantly get in the way but whatever, worth it)
