Title A name given to the resource Yellow Hibiscus Lei Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Cabler, Cindy Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2022 Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource garland approx. 10" long, with flowers ranging from approx. 1.5" to 2" in diameter Description An account of the resource This is a decorative mini-lei made up of crocheted flowers. The flowers are designed to evoke the maʻo hau hele, the yellow native hibiscus which is the state flower of Hawaii. I designed & made this item in spring 2022. It is made from size 10 crochet thread (Willow Veil brand, color cherry red) and size 8 perle cotton (Anchor brand, color 290), crocheted with a size 8 steel crochet hook. I made this item as part of my ongoing series of crocheted state flowers. I had been making small sample flowers, playing with colors & forms, but aiming for a stylistic rather than realistic version of the hibiscus. After I had made several, I thought it would be fun to turn these small flowers into a decorative mini-lei in time for Lei Day (which is May 1 & a state holiday in Hawaii). I will add that I have never seen the maʻo hau hele, though I am familiar with other flowers in the hibiscus genus. I have made do with photos & the colors of thread I had on hand -- another reason these little ones may not be regarded as realistic.
