I knitted this flower on my Brother Bulky Machine only because that was the machine I was working on before I tried this flower. It helped that it was larger to see what I was doing. It is made from fisherman’s wool. The pattern is in Hand Manipulated Stitches for Machine Knitters by Susan Guagliumi. This can be made on any machine. I backstitched around each of the petals in darker color and then I put about 4 or 5 french knots in the center. In the flowers in the picture below I knitted the centers starting on 3 stitches , increasing to 5 and then decreasing to 3 stitches .

Well, to be honest, I don’t understand what you said, and I don’t know how I ended up here in the first place, but I have to say that this flower in the picture is very nice, and if it is your creation in one way or another props to you, sir or madam!
