Our Tulip pattern makes a felted flower as big as the real thing. It's knit first, starting at the i-cord stem, then felted. A florist wire is run through the stem so that the flowers stand up. Choose from our variety of flower patterns and make a bouquet to last all year long.

Yarn: 100% wool, worsted weight : 80 yards of green for the stem and leaf, 50 yards for petals, yellow for the tips of stamen

Needles: Size 10 double point needles, a spare pair of long straight needles (size 10 or smaller), a stitch holder and a yarn needle.

Additional Materials: For the stem and leaf, you’ll need two 18 gauge, 18” florist wires and about 4 feet of ¼” synthetic ribbon to thread through the leaf and flower stems prior to felting. This ensures the stems won’t fuse to themselves as they shrink. You’ll also need 4-6 3.5” lengths of a green cloth covered florist’s wire for the stamen.

Finished Sizes: In two sizes, large and small. The finished flowers are 15 – 18” long.

Level: Advanced beginner
