Coleus
by Emma Varnam
This glamorous plant features bright colours that look magnificent recreated in vibrant yarns. The real plant is not easy to keep in the house, so why not make a woolly ne instead? I used a soft chunky yarn that replicates the textured leaves of the living version.
Finished Size
Each large leaf is approximately 6 1/2in (16 cm) long and 4in (10 cm) wide.
You Will Also Need
Tapestry needle
Floristry wire
Plant pot approximately 4 3/4in (12 cm) in diameter
Tension
Tension is not essential for this project.
