Yahoo's LoomClass Group is just finishing up a class that features my
Patriot Pin from last year and I thought I would share with you a pattern that sort of evolved from that pattern called the
Loopy Flower pattern. I made a couple of these for my husband's mother and aunt for Mother's Day brooches in white Homespun and lavender worsted weight.

I was going to include the instructions in this blog post, but I decided to write it up as
Loopy Flower PDF. That way I can actually find it when I get ready to make more.
Now, go out and loom a yarny garden!
