This knitted floral brooch is based off of a flower corsage worn by silver screen star & scientist Hedy Lamarr in the 1940s!
The pattern includes instructions for how to make the pieces as well as how to arrange them. That being said, feel free to let the florist within you run wild! Add more or less leaves, or even try your hand at adding some ribbon like in the original! It may look intimidating at first, but once you’ve made one of each, you’ll quickly get the hang of it. Additionally, this pattern includes information and a video tutorial on how to assemble the brooch.

This brooch pattern is a part of the Squid School brooch series, and is one of four brooches to come out this month! Make your own garden inspired by Miss Lamarr and other delightful vintage brooches over at Squid’s School of Vintage Knitting!
