This article describes how to Knit the 3rd, or smallest part of a flower. Parts 1 and 2 were discussed in other articles. This lovely flower can be use to decorate any number of projects. In the photo shown below you can see how I used it to decorate a napkin ring. In the other articles are photos of the flower on a headband and the flower alone. I have simply put a big safety pin on the back and pinned it to the lapel of my jacket for lots of oohs and aahs!
