Take a deep breath and imagine yourself in an English country garden. Hear the birds chirping, feel the soft breeze on you skin and smell the sweet fragrance of the beautifully colored roses.

Now take out your dpns, find some pretty colored yarn and let’s knit a lovely rose lady together.
Supplies needed: 12 mm wooden bead for head, pipe cleaner, scrap yarn in pretty rose colors and one free evening. Need a last minute rose? Check out my popular Pop Into Shape Rose!
