You will require:
For the stem, use green DK yarn. For the petals, use red DK yarn (or any other colour…) 4mm Knitting Needles – I prefer to use double pointed ones for sewing.
Push the two petals together while they are on the needle and knit the six stitches as one row.
The cast-off portion of the inner petals should be sewn together at the bottom, leaving the tops open like petals.
Put the stem inside the outer petals. Add stitches. Secure the inner petals inside by sewing up the outer petals halfway up.
