This bee can be used as an air-freshener in your car by adding a few drops of your favourite essential oil, is can be used to keep mosquitos away from barbecues by infusing a few bees with lot of citronella, and hanging up around the party area, and they also look great on a child’s mobile!

The pattern came about after I was stuck on a delayed flight with two, non-crafting friends. I managed to get a crochet hook on board, but they were getting bored, so, they demanded a prize from me for the person who won a game of “Dots”. I proposed, off hand, to make a bee for the winner.
