You always learn something new at a crank-in!

A fellow cranker could not wait to show off her new flower invention at the GKF crank-in this past weekend.  MrB was anxious to learn from her.  These little flowers will be an added feature to some of our baby hats.  They are so cute! Some people add buttons in the center also.
