This is a crochet pattern to make a Bee and a Flower Basket. A basic knowledge of crochet is required to make them. The pattern is easy to follow: it only uses single crochet stitches (US) or double crochet stitches (UK). The Bee and Flower Basket are made with No 5 yarn (Bulky, Chunky, Craft, Rug) and a 6 mm hook (US: J/10, UK: 4). Instructions are included for the bee, basket and flowers.
You can make them bigger or smaller, without changing the pattern. The bee is about 19 inches/ 47.5 cm high standing (excluding antennas). The flower's diameter is 2.8 inches/ 7 cm. The basket is 3 inches/ 7.5 cm in diameter and 1.8 inches/ 4.5 cm high (excluding the handle). The size of the dolls depends on the size of the crochet hook, thickness of yarn and how you stuff them; a bigger hook and thicker yarn make a bigger doll. A doll stuffed tightly is bigger than a loose stuffed doll.
