How to create this flower - Create a basic flower; see our video creating a basic flower. However on the middle section ensure each peg has five loops.
Leave on the loom and carefully slip off two loops from each middle peg.
Take some matching wool; thread your needle with a 30cm or 12” strand.
Now work around the flower middle picking up the loose loops.
When you have picked them all up pull on the wool and bring the loops into the middle.
Securely knot off, take the ends to the back of the flower and cut ends of wool.
Slip flower off of loom to complete.
