Blackberry cosy mark 2

Just using up odd ends and they are fun and quick to make.
Given me a few more ideas too!

BLACKBERRY COSY SIMPLE PATTERN
5mm hook and two strands of DK or one of chunky 
10 +1 as base chain...the one chain being the start to the first sc 
All in sc stitches
Done in the round with an increase of 2 sts each end giving 24sts in total 
Down one side of the chain and back up the other sl st to complete the round

Do as many rounds as it takes to cover the blackberry (17/18 depends on the yarn)
FLOWER
 magic circle 
1st round: 12 dc 
2nd round: attach wool chain 2, dc in first st, dc 2 chain in second st, repeat 5 more times to make 6 petals
sl st to complete round sew off ends and attach to cover

OR 
THE SECOND FLOWER 
Magic circle
12 dc into circle pull tight
chain loops of 5 and 6 sc done over the loopswith a sl stich to anchor at the base of petal
