From the Website:Ample-Knitters lister Cathy Christovich has developed a hand-knit pansy for us! We’ve long tried to come up with a list “emblem” to be worn to knitting events, festivals, workshops, etc. We came up with the idea of a “little yellow something” and then lots of list members found pansy buttons or pins to attach. Now Cathy has developed a knitted pansy especially for us, and graciously given me permission to post it here as a free pattern for all. You can certainly attach your pansy to a yellow swatch or miniature yellow sweater. Or just wear it on its own! How lovely these are! Thanks, Cathy!
