Wrap the end of the yarn around the peg on the outside of the
loom to secure it while reapping the petals. Take the yarn tothe inside of the loom between Peg 1 and Peg 12
Continue wrapping in this method until you have wrapped
five rows on each peg. Turning the loom as you wrap can help
you along.
Coming from the underside of the loom, sew up between Pegs
6 and 7
Once you have sewn between all the pegs, start sewing withinthe actual flower petals. You will begin from the underside
of the boom and sew up in front of Peg 1, then down in front
of Peg 7.
You can either pull out the pegs to release the flower or use the
TK tool to pull the petals over the pegs.
Take the yarn across the loom between Pegs 6 and 7. Then
wrap around Peg 6.
After you are finished with the fifth row, the tail of the yarn
should be lined up with the holding peg on the outside of the
loom. Wrap the end of the yarn around the holding peg and cut
the end leaving a 3 inch tail.
Coming from the top of the loom, sew down between Pegs 12
and 1.
Sew up in front of Peg 2, then down in front of Peg 8 and so onuntil you have sewn in front of each peg.
Take a glue dot and fasten one side to the flower and the other
side to the pin backing to make a lovely flower pin!
Take the yarn between Pegs 1 and 12 and wrap Peg 12. Take it
between pegs 5 and 6 and wrap Peg 5.
Cut a yard of yarn in either the same or a contrasting color and
thread it on the blue yarn needle. Attach the end of the new
yarn to the holding peg on the outside of the loom.
From under the loom, pull the yarn tightly (but gently) to shape
the center of your flower. Sew up between Pegs 5 and 6, then
down between Pegs 11 and 12, and so on, pulling the yarn
gently to maintain the center s shape.
When you are finished, unwrap the end of your second yarnfrom the holding peg and tie the two ends together on the bac
of the flower.

rosette-embellished cardiganRemember the Knitwit? A sensation among 1970s crafters, this old
infomercial favorite is still around todayand still the fastest way to
whip up versatile yarn rosettes than can be shaped into any number of
accessories. It comes with instructions for use and is a snap to learn.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED Knitwit kit (available online), mohair yarn (in shades of
white and pink), scissors, needle and thread
Follow the instructions that come with the Knitwit kit to form rosettes. Use the
same type of yarn for all of them, varying the colors. Wind the yarn four times
around the tool for each bloom; when stitching the center and perimeter of
each, work with a single strand rather than four. Release the finished rosettes
from the tool and use a needle and thread to tack them to the sweater.
