What's so great about Red Heart Super Savery Bitty Stripes is the colouring. It can make really cool crochet flowers by just using the ball as is without having to fuss around with changing colours. It does it for you.

Mikey needed to make colourful flowers. He used a colour called Unicorn Maine. One ball can do approximately 28 flowers. These are the Unicorn Crochet Flower patterns.

Mikey's purpose for this design was to add it to an edging of a blanket so that when the round blanket is rolled up, the edging produces a bouquet of fresh-looking flowers.

An example of a Flower Bouquet Blanket is the short video below. Mikey is in the process of doing a incredible stitch sampler blanket, whereas the Unicorn Flowers will be an assortment of colours. His pattern will emerge in the summer.
