THREAD IRIS FLOWER

Send

Spring is coming, and many of our readers are already in the spring mood. I want something light and beautiful. Hence the question for our dear needlewomen, but can we make a flower with our own hands ?!
Let this flower be a wonderful iris. So, for work it is necessary to prepare:
white, yellow and green threads for knitting, can be acrylic or half-woolen;
glue, wire and hook, beads for stamens.
Work creation time is approximately two hours. As a result, we should get such a flower.

Consider our work in stages.
Stage One. Make the base of the flower.
We take the yellow threads, knit two loops together and begin to knit in a circle with the addition of loops (we knit with ordinary columns without a crochet). When you get a circle with a diameter of 2.5 cm, we stop adding loops, and we continue knitting. We knit another 4 cm, and then we begin to sharply add loops to get the following.

Stage Two. Petals.
When our yellow base bell is ready, it's time to make 6 petals. We knit them with white thread. The pattern design is simple. We knit air loops, and then we begin the usual knitting we need the size. At the top we make a kind of triangle, and we close the knitting.

We make 5 more petals.
Stage Three. Stem.
Now it's time to make the stem and connect it first with the base, and then with the petals. We make the stalk with the help of a wire onto which we successively wind green threads. We knit a small green base and attach it on the one side to the stem, and on the other - to the base.
That's what we got.

Stage Four. Stamens.
To make our flower even more like this creation of nature, we need to make stamens for it. To do this, first knit a yellow circle, the diameter of which should not exceed 2 cm, and then with the help of large beads we make such stamens.

Glue the stamens to the inside of our base ...
Then we sew or glue the petals. Here is the flower we get.

And here is how the flower looks on the other hand.

Stage Five. Leaflets
Now the matter remains small - to execute leaflets of green thread. They can be tied up with the help of imagination. In our version, at first 6 rows of ordinary loops were knitted (the length of the sheet itself was about 6 cm), and then one row of columns with 1 crochet was knitted.
Here are the leaves.
