African flowers are popular little things aren't they!? I have to admit I haven't made any for quite a while and my African Flower blanket above has been relegated to the UFO pile. I really do have a short attention span. Anyway, I still - months after even mentioning them here - get the odd message asking how you make them. So I thought I'd post some links.
First Heidi Bears (where I learned how to make them) has a picture and worded tutorial HERE in English and Spanish (I think!)
Secondly, there is a Flickr group HERE that not only has lots of completed African Flower inspiration, they have the tutorial right at the bottom of the page I have just linked to. Scroll down. They also have a number of discussions with translations of the tutorial.
Hope this helps! x

Thanks so much for Heidi's link. I have tried to make one before but didn't get the shape right. This is wonderful. xxx PS please finish your blanket it is soo beautiful. xx
They are gorgeous :-) I came across the pattern after I'd started my hexagons so too late for my blanket, but maybe a future project?
I might try these one day when I'm feeling brave.

Gorgeous! I intend to try this pattern when I have finished everything I need to finish! xx
The African flowers are beautiful! I agree with Hazel - you definately need to finish your blanket as it is and will be stunning!
Oh you should all try them - they look more complicated than they are. I will finish the blanket ....one day! For now I'm all African flowered out! x
That is so pretty - and I really love the colors on it. I've never tried making African flowers myself!
Lovely colours! They suit this pattern very well.
Lovely! I would like to let you know that there is a link party on my crochet blog every fridaynight and Saturday. I would love it if you’d add something you made. Have a lovely day!
