A Few Years a go I designed an African Flower Hexagon for fun.

 You can find that pattern HERE

I was playing around with the pattern, 
using up my left over yarn scraps, 
and put them together in a scarf.

 And Added Some Fringe.

The Size of The Scarf depends on you
and how long you want to make it.
 I like it at 48 inches long by 6 inches wide.

It is now one of my favorite scarves.

African Flower - Picture Tutorial

African Flower Motif
 And Hot Pad Crochet Pattern
 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs
This is my Version of the African Flower Crochet Pattern.

PLEASE NOTE: I recommend if you are going to use this
 Motif as a Hot pad or Pot Holder to make it out of a 
Cotton or Cotton Blend.
Acrylic yarn can burn burn and burn you.

I Wrote This Crochet Pattern in 2013 and decided it

 needed a retest, and Update.

As well as, A Brand New Video

This Pattern is a great way to use up some of your 

yarn  left overs and make some lovely projects.

Scarves, bags, place mats, table runners, Hot pats and much, much more.
