Magnolia Flower Bonsai
This pattern gives all the instructions and details for making your very own Magnolia tree bonsai in crochet. It makes a beautiful and unique piece for your home or as a gift to the plant-lover in your life. No watering or trimming required!
I made this as a gift for a friend who loves Magnolia flowers. The real Magnolia bonsais only bloom for a short time every year, so here is one that lasts forever!
The pattern is beginner to intermediate level with primarily basic stitches used, such as magic ring, single crochet, and front loop and back loop only stitches. I have used standard UK abbreviations throughout.
This pattern will not teach you how to crochet from the very beginning, but I believe anyone who has completed at least a couple of projects would be able to create this piece.
