Bobbin Instructions
Since this was a smaller graph I thought I would share how I used my yarn bobbins. I like to use my Printable Bobbins to keep my yarn from getting tangled.
For this graph I used 3 blue bobbins, and Red bobbin, and 2 green bobbins.
The I used one blue bobbin for each side of the flowers. I used the third blue bobbin for the area in between the leaves and the stalk, and in between the two flowers. I did not carry my blue through the leaves or stalks of the flowers.
I was lucky in the fact that you will complete the first flower before needing to start the second one. This allows you to only need the one red bobbin.
You can of course use as many or as few bobbins as you would like, but this is just how I did it.
Finishing Up the May Flowers C2C Graph
To finish this graph and make it into a washcloth I just Single crocheted around the edge. If you don’t know how to add a single crochet border, you can check out my video tutorial or my photo tutorial.
For the washcloth I added the border and wove in my ends and it was done. For the Pot Holder, I made a plain 15×15 C2C square, Single Crocheted a border to that square and the square using the graph and used a running stitch to sew the two together. You can learn more about Sewing Crochet Pieces Together with my video tutorial.
Now you have an adorable new addition to you kitchen!
