Flower Power, Free
I hope you enjoy the free pattern for Flower Power. I used to ride the schoolbus to school with a girl that every day, even in winter, would bring the bus driver a flower. Every day, as she handed him the flower, she would say Flower Power. I don't remember anything else about her, not even her name, but she was the inspiration for this pattern.

The first 12 rows will give you a garter stitch border. Row 1, 2) (color 1) Knit across Attach color 2. Just start knitting with it at the beginning of row 3. Leave color 1 attached. You will not cut any yarn till the end. As you change colors just carry the unused color up the side of the cloth. Row 3, 4) (color 2) Knit across Change back to color 1. Just carry it up the side. Row 5, 6) (color 1) Knit across Row 7, 8) (color 2) Knit across Row 9, 10) (color 1) Knit across Row 11, 12) (color 2) Knit across Now the pattern stitches will start.
