This brooch or hair pin would make a great last minute present for a friend or loved one and can be easily knitted in an evening. The instructions are specifically for a brooch, but you can adapt it incredibly easily by just sewing on a different finding - be it an alligator grip, bobby pin, barrette, etc. The only limitation is your imagination.

You can also use it to make accessories to sell as long as you mention that the pattern is from Floribundae.

The pattern is perfect for a beginner or intermediate knitter and has lots of color combination ideas and inspiring photographs.
