Brooch the cold

It's winter, it's officially cold. Why not warm your coat lapel with a woolen brooch.

I recently found myself in the wool section of a Spotlight store, half an hour later I walked out with 3 bags full. My knitting arms are sore, but I've created these floral designs and attached some vintage brooch pins. I wanted the texture to be quite thick, to show off the wool and make the petals look cosy.

Now I need a break from knitting, it's time for some inking.
