A beautiful knitting stitch creating amazing dandelion flowers. The stitch is a bit more time consuming and it might be a bit more challenging to beginners, but the end result is worth the effort. It is great for scarves, shawls, blankets and baby girl sweaters

having problem.... are you going to do a video??
ReplyDeleteYes, it is being uploaded.
DeleteThis is beautiful, I look forward to learning to do this. When I tried to watch the video it states it is private did I miss something? Thank you for your help.
ReplyDeleteYou need a stitch number multiple of 6sts.
DeleteCast on: 30 sts and please note: from 1:25 to 8:52 and from 10:20 to 15:20 of the video
(8:55 -> 9:40: Knit all sts)
Happy knitting!
The video is listed as private.... would really like to watch it! I don't understand what the second row means by 'wrap the five stitches twice'
ReplyDeleteYou can use a cable needle for this row, wrap yarn twice clockwise
DeleteNever mind! The video works now and I understand. thank you!
ReplyDeleteSorry -- I fell in love with this pattern and needed the video to figure it out, but now all of the written instructions are gone :( And I don't speak German so I can't understand the video outside of visual learning (and I knit English so even that's a bit of a challenge!) Could you put the written instructions back up, please?
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry, it was copyrighted :(
Deleteis there someway to find the written pattern for this stitch other than the video. I have searched the web over and when i go to the german site it does not have a link for the written pattern. Any help would be great. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI can't write detailed instructions because the dandelion pattern is copyright. I'm sorry.

I just discovered this wonderful blog! What a surprise! You are a very enchanteress! Thank you! Nicole
ReplyDeleteintroduced in Barbara Aytes book "Adventures in Knitting" published in 1968 - p. 79 - she called it "Lacy Daisy" and claims to have invented it.. I would be more prone to use Elizabeth Zimmermann's term "unvented" ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a useful information!
DeleteThanks
I just used these stitches for baby hat - so cute :-)
