Best Yarn for Crochet Flowers
I was recently sent some lovely new colours one of my favourite yarns King Cole Bamboo Cotton DK. It was always my go-to yarn for making crochet flowers for years and is a mixture of acrylic and cotton yarn. It gives great stitch definition and the colours are so beautiful. You can use any weight yarn you wish to make these simple flowers. You will only need small amounts of yarn so perfect for using up your yarn scraps.
