Note! The pattern is in Danish and English.
Flos Aeternus is an everlasting bouquet made of yarn that never needs watering, never wilts, and never goes out of style. The poppy is a delicate flower that’s hard to preserve, but in the world of yarn and knitting, it comes to life in a new, lasting form. Flos Aeternus is a poetic and recognizable tribute to the poppy interpreted through the art of knitting.
This knitting pattern includes detailed instructions for creating poppies in five different stages: from closed bud to fully bloomed flower.
All elements can be mixed and matched, allowing you to design your own unique bouquet – perfect as a decorative piece or a thoughtful handmade gift. Under materials the different kinds of yarns for all variations of the poppies are listed but please note not every single color is necessary to make a lovely bouquet. The pattern lists options to use yarn leftovers or check out our yarn kits.
📏 SIZES
Size: One size
Suggested needles: 3,5 mm (60 cm)
Gauge:
16 sts x 10 rows = 10 x 10 cm in garter stitch for the petals
14 sts x 10 rows = 10 x 10 cm in stockinette for the sepals and stem
Achieving the correct gauge is not crucial, as all flowers are different.
Accessories: 40-50 cm steel wire (I recommend 2 mm bonsai wire)
