I made a couple crocheted rose magnets as part of a housewarming gift this weekend.
I have made a couple of these rose magnets before, but this time I added the leaf which I think adds a lot. High quality magnets and an epoxy based glue, so theoretically you could submerge these in soapy water and air dry when they get dirty.
These are so pretty! What a clever idea.
The leaves were a nice touch!
The leaves were the perfect addition! These are quite lovely.
They are really pretty! What yarn did you use? Good call on the leaves – it’s just what they need.
what a sweet housewarming gift, definitely unique and treasured
For the red flower and both color leaves I used Paton Grace mercerized cotton yarn and the pink was some fancy yarn I had in my stash from my sister - she wound it on her yarn winder so I don’t have the label. I’ve had it for too long because it was coarse and I thought it would be difficult to work it. It is a dream to work with though! I’m using it for all sorts of little flowers (working on a wreath for the front door).
Ah! Patons Grace explains the sheen. I like it. Well, hurray for mystery yarn!
These are so sweet!
Those are lovely!
Really pretty idea.
