Bouquet Flower Pattern - Knitting

Free Knit Pattern - Bouquet Flower Stitch

This stitch would have sent shivers if I saw this few years back as this is definitely not for beginner level.

Pls Note : For the bouquet pattern, the knit required is just 13 stitches. However, I added 4 stitches for the edge (2 on each side) and 3 stitches to divide the bouquet pattern

I cast 33 stitches - Long-tailed cast on
