Awesome pins!
The Dazzleaire yarn is the same that my mom has on her bed. It's one of our favorites! I always loved Dazzleaire yarn.:manyheart

We found out this morning that my eldest son's Sunday school teacher broke her arm in four places. He wanted me to crochet something for her. I asked him if a flower was ok, and he agreed that would be nice. So I went looking for something simple and pretty. I found the pattern for the picot flower (your brown-varigated one), and finished it just before I came to get my daily dose of C'ville. I augmented the pattern a bit. Did two rounds of petals (in rose) chaining 5 as my base for the row, and doing sc, ch, 2dc, trc, 2dc, ch, sc to form that second set of petals. Used a red for the center; sc as directed in the first open space, then ch 5, sc in next open space, ch1, sc in next open space, ch 5, etc. leaving me with only three chains in the back for the picot row, which I crocheted in green as leaves. Then I did a yellow french knot in the very center, and added a pin back. It took me all of 20 minutes, even with the changes. I really like that pattern. Yours turned out very lovely!

Oh I love the blue one.
Dazzle air, has sparkle in it and it was soft. I don't know if it is made anymore or not. It was sort of a fuzzy yarn, if I remember.:hook
