French Knitted Flower

Here is the product of my French Knitting. I made a flower which will be used on something this year, perhaps a hat for Metro. Anyway, I used Red Heart Strata yarn in Crayon.

I made the strip about 20 inches long. Removed it from the knitter leaving a long long tail, then I tied the ends together making a ring. I then began to make loops sewing them together with the long tail. I made loops until I had used up the 20 ". I then sewed a button to the center and viola' a flower.

Ghost, OUT!

I have one similar and used to enjoy making the strips but never knew what to do with them afterwards. Now I do! Thanks again for great ideas!
