Lovely octopus/flower brooch perfect for beginners.
Very easy pattern in which you use the basic techniques:
cast on, knit, purl, increase, decrease and bind off.

You make lots of little pieces, so if you make a mistake,
there’s not going to be too much ripping.

I called it Dalia because it sounds much better than Chrysanthemum
which is what it really looks like.

You use one ball of yarn for the petals (main color) and oddments for the pistils and leaves.
