Marigolds were once considered to have magical properties and they were planted all over villages at times of celebration. Their flowers were used in ancient Greece, the Roman empire, the Middle East and India as medicinal herbs and as a dye for fabrics, foods and cosmetics.

This pattern is worked in the round and I use abbreviations according to US crochet language. I can provide the pattern in UK crochet language if preferred, please just contact me.

The finished marigold is approximately 7.5cm (3”) in diameter. It would make a lovely brooch or bag decoration.

Tools Needed:
US size E (3.5mm) crochet hook
scissors
yarn needle

Yarn Needed:
DK acrylic yarn in red and golden yellow.

If you need any help or advice please feel free to contact me.
