All the wool came from my bag of scrap wool. I crocheted 16 little motifs and then joined them together with a cord of chain stitch - 10 chains between each flower. I knew she would appreciate this quirky presentation and hope she'll enjoy the garland for a little while to come!
Just in case you get the urge to do the same, this is how I made the motifs:1st round - 6ch, join with ss
2nd round - 1ch, 17dc into ring, join with ss
3rd round - 5 ch, skip 2dc, then 1dc into 3rd dc. *4 ch, 1dc into 3rd dc*. Rep from *to* til end of round. Join with ss and then pull the thread through.

Go on! Get that crochet hook out! You can do it!

Hi, Thanks for letting me know about the hotel with the Airstreams, I love your daisy chain so pretty! x
What a wonderful idea, and so very pretty! You are one special lady!
This could be the inspiration I need to finally learn to crochet!
Ah so cute
Ah, what a great blog! I have just spent the last few hours looking back at your old posts and been totally inspired by what you create. I am going to rush home and start folding a stack of old UK Glamours I was about to reluctantly throw out. Thank you for inspiring me :)
This is so pretty!
Thanks everyone!So nice to meet you Tam and glad you were inspired.
Flowerpress - looking forward to seeing your crochet progress!
You always come up with such lovely ideas, Denise! I have a load of cerise and blue and purple wool left over from various projects half-started (and not finished) - I think a pink and purple daisy chain will just be the thing - especially if I can finish the project in an hour! Now I must just find a flower child to give it to ...
That is so cute! Wish I knew how to crochet :)
That looks really cute and you make it sound so easy, I'm a total beginner at crochet so for me it would be a one week daisy chain ;-)
