This months Herbology class follows the old rhyme - April Showers bring May Flowers
This class is another one wide open for interpretation because projects can range from as simple as a crocheted flower to pin on to a hat or shirt, or as complex as a shawl with a flower pattern, and everything in between.
The class has been split into two different options. The first being to create a flower embellishment. This is likely to be the quickest and most popular option, but also one with the most possibilities. Each flower will look unique and different based upon the yarn chosen and the flower you pick. Knit, crocheted, or needlefelted flowers will be accepted for this option. The item that is embellished by the flower you create does not need to also be created for this class. Making a sweater for DADA? Embellish it with a flower for Herbology, and you have two FOs together in one and class projects for 2 classes. Purchased items and items made previously (House Cup or not) can also be embellished with the flower that you make, but the points are given for the flower only.
Option 2 is to create an item with a floral motif on it. This is where fair isle socks (or iPod cozies or mug cozies, etc) would fit in, as well as lace items (bookmark, scarf, shawl, etc.) with a flower pattern. Large or small, it doesn't really matter, as long as it looks like flowers.
