Every year, at about this time, I start become besotted with flowers.

(Almost exactly a year ago, I wrote this, and two years ago, I wrote this)

Their colors. Their textures. Their construction.

Double begonias ammmmaaaze me!

My very favorite-ist way to celebrate the flowers is to turn them into yarn.

Dogwoods

become

And cherry blossoms

become

These are yarns I’ve made in the past (I have a thing for blooming trees, eh?) and I’m ready to be re-inspired.

This year, I want to try some new flowers. But, I need inspiration!

What is your favorite flower?

Share it in the comments and I will create a yarn from it.
Tell me WHY it’s your favorite (a story or memory, perhaps?) and I’ll use it in the description (with attribution for you, of course!).

All of our favorite yarns will be in a special section of the shop (I’ll announce it when I launch it) so you can find YOUR yarn and everyone else’s too.
