These realistic looking daffodils are quick to knit and use just oddments of yarn. The stems can be supported with wire so the flowers will stand in a vase. They also make a very nice brooch or lapel pin. You can knit just the flower heads and add them to spring wreaths, Easter gift cards or napkin rings. The daffodil is knit flat on two needles. The stem is knit as an i-cord.
