Hobby On The Road - Irish Crochet Chrysanthemum

Continuing on the theme of hobby on the road, here's something I made sitting in my caravan somewhere in England on a very rainy day...

An Irish crochet chrysanthemum brooch.

After discovering this technique of crocheting I needed to learn how to crochet different elements such as roses, petals, stems, and all sorts of other little things.

So I went online (where else?) and looked at some videos.
Here's the video on how to crochet this Chrysanthemum flower:

After making the flower, I kept thinking, where I could use it...
... and then I found a safety pin lurking in a corner of my crafts box....
... so I thought, why not making it into a brooch?

Long story short, I think it looks great on my light blue cotton summer dress. :-)

Get a hobby, enjoy your life!
