Bonus Tips
Use a stitch marker on Round 1 of each flower so you never lose your place as you work in the round. When sewing the leaves to the flowers, a single stitch through the base is all you need ā keep it light so the petals stay full and dimensional. For the most charming look, alternate your cream and purple flowers along the hanger rather than grouping them together!
