What you need to know

Learn how to knit a stunning bouquet of forget-me-not flowers with this easy to follow knitting pattern.

A carpet of beautiful blue forget-me-nots is one of nature’s wonders and this is a wonderful way to capture that charm the whole year round. They’re small and relatively quick to make but take care as you’ll be using small needles and fine 4ply yarn. To create a bunch of flowers, as shown here, make five flowers and bind the stalks using fine ribbon or florists’ tape.

Top knit tip

These little flowers are fiddly to make, so allow yourself enough time not only to knit the petals but to assemble them carefully and neatly.
