A Knit Flower Bouquet for a Group Yarn Bomb

Meredith from One Sheepish Girl hosted another group yarn bombing event this weekend, which she dubbed a Sheepish Bloom Drop.  The assignment was to "knit, crochet, sew, stitch, or fold a flower creation and leave it somewhere out in the world."  I've participated in her other group yarn bombings (remember the leaves and the hearts?), so of course I wanted to join in on this one as well.

For my contribution to the Bloom Drop, I knitted a 3-flower bouquet.  I made the stems by knitting i-cords around some skewers that I found in my parents' kitchen, and I attached a couple of leaves to the i-cords to make the stems look more believable.  Then I whipped up some yellow and white pom poms for the blooms themselves, and some green half pom poms to go between the blooms and their stems.   As you can tell, my love affair with my pom pom maker is still as strong as ever!

In addition to the Bloom Drop, this weekend also marks the return of my boyfriend, who's been out of town for a week, so I decided to combine the two occasions and give my Bloom Drop creation to him as a welcome back gift.

The bouquet is currently sitting on my boyfriend's front porch, waiting to be found...

Did you participate in the Bloom Drop as well?  Or have you done some other forms of yarn bombing?  I'd love to hear about your experiences.

Happy blooming!
