These crochet Poppies can be worked in two ways. The top row of Poppies shows the central design area worked using a Single Front Post Treble. I later found that the buttons with shanks wobble more than I liked, so I decided to build up the central design area which formed a ‘nest’ for the buttons to be cradled in. Both versions are very lovely – it is personal preference. You may decide to use flat buttons instead.
