Hello and welcome to the Spring Daisies Crochet Pattern listing.

The pattern is for fresh and pretty daisies for your Spring into Summer décor.

It is a fabulous pattern that includes instructions for using the daisies in 3 different ways to make the perfect daisy bouquet to add to your Spring table settings, cheerful daisy bunting to decorate your Spring events and an adorable daisy bookmark to keep place in your favourite books. It is a very versatile pattern and other options could include a brooch, hairclip, bag charm, pencil topper and gift card decoration.

They are very quick to make and great stash busters that would make pretty gifts for family and friends and be perfect at craft fayres. I hope you will love the pattern as much I have loved creating it.

The pattern is made up of a 12 page pdf digital document that includes step by step instructions and lots of helpful photography to assist with making each of the Spring Daisy makes. A video tutorial will be available very soon and this listing will be updated when it is.
