Lily's Floral Gift Card Holder

"This is a quick and easy floral gift card holder that also works great as a tea bag pocket. It's worked in a small amount of yarn making it perfect for those scraps in your stash! You can also use it to gift many things like a couple Ghirardelli chocolate squares, a stick or two of biscotti, or even non-foodie gifts like a pair of earrings on a card or small floral picks. To make your own, you'll need 30 yards of worsted weight yarn - I used Knit Picks Dishie, but any worsted weight yarn will work (though acrylic may produce a slightly larger flower). For reference, this one took me just over 45 minutes to complete. It's worked in simple single crochets and double crochets so a great project for a confident beginner."
