Fortune Anew Anthurium

The decoration consists of five parts: flowers, leaves, turf, floral foam, and a vase. Among these, the bouquet and leaves need to be crocheted and assembled, while the others are pre-made. First, complete the making of the flowers and leaves. Then, assemble everything together by inserting them into the vase that's already filled with floral foam and turf. Finally, tidy up the shape.

Note: Hand-measured, with a tolerance of 1-2 cm. Due to differences in individual tension, the sample size is for reference only.

Yarn: Susan's Family Sequin Mohair, Golden thread.
Tools: 2.00 mm crochet hook.

Crocheting is divided into two parts: the main body and the flower center. Both parts start with a magic ring. The flower center is crocheted in rounds, while the main body is worked back and forth in rows. For the last round, you'll need to wrap a thin wire into the stitches. Please refer to the video demonstration for more details.

PART3 AssemblyC​ 47' 04'' ​

First, refer to the video demonstration to shape each flower and leaf properly. Adjust the height of each flower and leaf, then tie and secure them together. Trim the stems evenly and set aside. Next, prepare the flower pot by filling it with floral foam. Then, cut a piece of turf into a suitable round shape, and insert the bouquet through the center of the turf into the floral foam. Finally, tidy up the turf and arrange the flowers as shown in the video demonstration. Please refer to the video demonstrationfor more details. 

Note: 1. Try to pack the floral foam tightly inside the vase so it doesn't move around easily. 2. First trim the moss into a 7.5×7.5 cm square, then cut off the four corners to shape it into a circle.
