Inspired by the floral beauty, originally
from Persia and Turkey, whose petals
infinitely overlap. The color of the tulip
determines the meaning of the flower:
yellows symbolize cheerful thoughts, purple
royalty, white forgiveness and red perfect
love. This edging stitch pattern is not
only fun to crochet, offering an unusual
construction pattern. Depending on your
recipient, make it in different colors to
represent the meaning of your gift!
