In the year 1922, this pretty flower basket appeared as a small design in the publication Star Needlework Journal. The chart lines in the vintage pattern are a faint blue that wouldn't reproduce well in a scan. I recharted the design in color symbols so that you would have a modern chart to work from and be able to enjoy this simple, but lovely, vintage pattern (the chart is on a printer-friendly page).

It's the perfect size for adding, in cross-stitch, to a crocheted afghan square. On the printer friendly page, I've added some instructions for making this into a Mini Wall Ornament, Pincushion or Afghan Square. There were no instructions in the 1922 book, just their chart.

Hope you will enjoy it!
