Japanese Flowers

I don't know how I stumbled upon Japanese flowers but they seem to be the talk of the online crochet world at the moment. Quick, easy and addictive everyone says. So, I found a pattern and tutorial on Revving It Up and . . . I'm addicted! I've made all these in the last couple of days.

I've only been crocheting a few weeks so if I can make them they must be easy!

I've been inspired to try a bigger project by Lucy at Attic24 who has created the most scrumptious Japanese flower scarf. I don't normally undertake projects that might take me forever; I can be quite impatient (that's why I don't do much knitting), but creating each flower is like a mini project and I know I'm going to enjoy making every single one. The yarn's on order, I have a brand new set of multi-coloured crochet hooks, I have Thursdays and Fridays to myself again now that school's back and I can't wait to get started.
