Becca’s comment: “OOOOh those are lovely! I’d love to learn how to make them!”
Winner #2
Elke!
Elke’s comment: “I would have to say roses, I have seen some almost black ones, and an amazing two tone red one. But also some weed flowers look really freat especially if they have impressive colors or the morning dew on them. Nature is just amazing.”
Congratulations! I hope we’ll be seeing some beautiful knitted Noni Flowers coming into bloom!
