#0512 DAISY LOVE VINTAGE CROCHET PATTERN

---

I definitely think the crochet version is the way to go! I love the afghan you made, so pretty. Just like a flower garden. I had one of these blankets from my grandma growing up. I also remember seeing a commercial on TV that advertised a little tool that would make these afghans. I always wanted one.

After doing some research I came across this: And it says it joins as it goes. I am tempted to try this one…. But your crochet version is pretty, too. Maybe Google Daisy Loom? Hello, I came across the vintage daisy motif picture and I made this bed cover in when living in the US. Yes, the flowers were made with a loom and then you crocheted them together. I bought the whole set complete with loom, yarn and pattern from a yarn shop all those years ago!

I saved the magazine from my mothers collection thinking it contained the pattern. Instead, it contained an order form for the kit, which is missing from her copy, of course. The cover shows the flowers with the green outline sitting separately next to the afghan before being attached. I thought we attached as we went. I think that must just be for show. It totally makes more sense to join-as-you-go.

Good luck with yours! Good Morning, Just read all the comments…I made this back in the day.. Unfortunately I got rid of it. Now I am excited to make my granddaughter one. I do have the loom and the original pattern. The loom is called Flower Loom by Studio Twelve. There are 12 pegs on the outer circle and also 12 on the inner circle.. The instructions show Wildflower Afghan Kit No. Flowers are joined together with sc worked into top of large petals with ch 5 between petals. Anyone interested in the instructions, I would be more than happy to mail you a copy..

Instructions are 4 pages. Inside the instructions it also says copyright, Studio Twelve. Yes this afghan is for looks, but looking at your pictures, it really was beautiful. I would love to have a copy! I forgot how to attach them too! From the looks of it, the loomed flowers are finished and joined just like my all-crochet version probably working through a few of the petal loops at a time. Helene, Would be more than happy to get a copy of the instructions.

Just let me know where to send it. I will get it into the mail right away. I am out of town, but as soon as I get home, I will read the instructions and let you know. It has been awhile since I made my but from what I recall the daisies were attached after all were made. I made mine with the loom with the original instructions and it all worked out.

I was mostly trying to replicate the spindly loomed flowers. Being from New England, I think everyone had a daisy afghan made from the old Ronco flower loom. I am making one now from the Hana Ami loom; this is proving to be time consuming. I am now, in TX; consequently, these people have neither seen, nor heard of a daisy loom afghan.

Thank you for sharing this. It has brought back happy memories. I completely agree — the flower loom is sooooo tedious. BUT, it really does make a difference! I am from Texas. Have lived here my whole life. I have heard of and seen the daisy loom afghan. In fact, my grandmother made one many years ago. My sister is dying with lung cancer, I am going home to visit her.

I am making this for her. I am making a panel on the back of it that reads: My mum used to make these all the time for us. I took for granted how much work was actually involved. I hope you have time to investigate the regionalism of these because not one person I have shown it to here has ever seen one. Know that you are in my thoughts. I know how hard this is. The thought of it makes me sick. Love to you and your family. I made one of these in high school. It was made on a plastic loom that was square at the top and had a handle under it sort of like a flat umbrella, if that makes sense.

There was a knob at the bottom of the handle that you could turn to make these little points come out around the square part so that you could weave your yarn around it. Then you tied it off, turned the knob to draw the points back in and the flower would pop off. I still have the loom and the afghan…think I made this in Now I wish I still had it! Mine was made on a loom though.

My mother has it safely packed away now. Someday I belive it will come to live with me. I am looking for my sister-in-law for the method of joining the vintage daisies like they used to make the afgan in the original picture ssgunter yahoo.

I imagine you could do it just as I have done with the crochet flower, just working through the loomed petal loops a few at a time instead. Join using the JAYG technique linked at the end of the post. Another idea is to maybe use crochet Yo-Yo puffs as an alternative? Just pinned those puffs!

It is sitting on the back of a chair I have which is about the same era as the afghan so it is quite cute combo!

What do you think being as you have a real-life one right in front of you? It appears something like this as best I can tell. Will try to send pics if I can…. With green, join in the middle of one of the daisy petals looped-there are 3 strands of yarn for each petal Once the starting chain is joined in the middle, chain 5, then sc in middle of next petal, and on around to the end.

Each green row, when worked appears to be attached to the next finished green border of the next petal. Like I said, I will try to take pics to see better. Maybe someone can make heads or tails of it. I saw the pattern for this recently and am trying to recall where. I think it may be at our church library. You can send pics to hellospeckless hotmail.

She offered to pay me 10c a daisy to make them for her to stitch together. The white plastic loom I want to say Boye had a center hole, two rows of pegs on one side, one row on the other those rows were at the hole to make the center. It also came with a blue plastic needle, a big one about a 8 or 10 tapestry.

There was a notch in the edge of the loom. You went around in a certain pattern with the background or big petals, white; then the little pegs got done with yellow, pass the yarn to the back and loop those, cut off with a tail about a foot long on the yellow. Now take the needle and thread it on and weave through the center with a sort of backwards looping, and tie off. Pop all the loops off, voila. Mom had made 3 daisies and taught me how.

It was summer… I was bored out of my skull. She expected me to make a few read maybe 10 at most of these a WEEK and give up. I cranked them out in under a week. Her mistake was I was 8 and bored, and my allowance was 50c a week, and she offered me a dime a daisy…. Your mom is a genius! Those daisies are so tedious to make — very worth it to pay 10 cents apiece. AND keep an 8 year old occupied! I bought a modern make of one of these looms off a store hook in and made a bunch with 5 loop rows petals and 3 center, in pinks, tans, maroons, yellows, sages and blues; and used them loose on a display table at shows I used to do, to hold rock spheres and eggs from rolling around.

I think Boye is still making them crochet hook makers. It would be pretty impossible to work the back on such a full size. I still have my round loom, but I lost the directions on how to put them together. Would anyone have the directions for the Daisy Loom and how to put the flowers together? I think you just sort of go around each one with single crochet, then hook them together in rows.
