This pretty pincushion is a perfect gift for any crafty person or yourself. You can make it as a decorative flower, hang a few in a garland, or add some scented lavender, cinnamon or potpourri to the filling to add to drawers or wardrobes.

The pattern fully explains how to make the two sides, crochet them together and add scallops. There are tips on filling the pincushion too. There are full colour photos, diagrams and easy-to-read instructions, advice, yarn colour tips and suggestions.

You will need a small amount of toy filler (approximately 4 grams) to fill the pincushion.
