Daisy stitch is so lovely and cheerful. It is really just a slight variation on a chain stitch. It is very versatile, as you can vary the size and number of petals on your daisies.
|
Make a longish stitch from your starting point |
The length of this stitch will determine the length of the petals of your daisy.
|
Wrap the wool around the needle |
|
Stitch back down to make a small stitch to hold your loop in place |
|
Stitch back up in the centre of your flower |
|
Make your next petal in the same way |
|
This is a slightly quicker way to stitch back to the middle |
Then keep making the petals. Try to keep the angle between your petals roughly the same. But this is homemade so don't worry too much.
|
Nearly finished |
|
I have added a french knot to the centre of this daisy |
