A flower rich in history and symbolism is the Crocus, its blooms perhaps most associated with springtime here in the UK and across Europe. Its early flowering time evokes a meaning of rebirth, alongside joy and romantic devotion. Ranging in colours from white to purple and pink, their flowers are short-lived for only a few weeks of the year and can be found in wedding bouquets as well as gifts intended to express happiness and renewal. Whatever the occasion, this iconic flower is a classic addition to your TOFT bouquet.

Alexandra’s Garden kits are a range of amigurumi crochet characters that bring to life a collection of much-loved plants and flowers, making them perfect for the budding gardener or crafter. With no watering required, the TOFT crochet flower range is low maintenance, always in bloom and guaranteed to brighten up your home all year round!

TOFT’s Alexandra’s Garden flower kits all include a printed postcard pattern alongside a downloadable digital copy, lengths of Black and Cream yarn for the eyes and a ‘cro-your-own’ tag. Select a packaging option between a gift wrapped bouquet or a jute reusable project bag to keep your latest crochet bloom inside while it grows. Choose to add a TOFT crochet hook to make it the perfect gift.
