This rug (afghan) is made up of 25 flower patterns
Each of the 25 flower patterns is also offered for sale as an individual pattern ($2.50 AUD - $1.70 USD - $1.20 GBP).

Each flower pattern has a base round from which the main square is then worked.
I’ve used the humble granny square simply because it’s an easy start for the less experienced but there is no reason why you can’t use a favourite (square) of your own. I used 8 ply Bendigo Woollen Mills yarn but, here again, use what you have or favour.

The 4.50 hook is my preference but if you’re more comfortable with a 4.00/5.00, then go for it –
Patterns (for both the complete rug & individual squares) are in written & diagram form & include abbreviations, special stitch drawings & instructions

Instructions for joining squares & the all-round border is a free pdf download for those of you who select just a few of the flower patterns
