Join Brenna and Furls Crochet for our May Ami CAL. For last month’s amigurumi CAL we made “April Showers” rainy cloud mobiles, so naturally, this month brings May Flowers! But these potted flowers are more than meets the eye… they’re removable, interchangeable, and they’re pens! Both beautiful and functional, these would make the perfect Mother’s Day gift. The pattern will include instructions for a daffodil, a daisy, and a tulip, but if those aren’t mom’s favorite flower it should be easy to retrofit a different bloom to one of the stem bases! I can’t wait to see how our ami gardens grow!
