Crocheted Poppies | Remembrance Day 2026 | Free Pattern

Hello! Astri here, popping in (with poppies in hand
to say hello and share a little crochet update.
First and foremost, Helen has been doing an absolutely amazing job with 
Apple Blossom Dreams, but more on that later!

While I’ve set aside my designing and writing hook for now, my love for crochet is still going strong.
Lately, I’ve been finding so much joy in making beautiful pieces from other designers’ patterns. 

Right now, because I can't resist crocheting blossoms, I’m crocheting poppies for Helen at EmkatCrochet's (Yes, the same Helen as Apple Blossom Dreamz Helen) **2026 Remembrance Project**, a truly meaningful initiative she’s leading with such heart and purpose.
This project will create a stunning cascade of poppies to honour and remember those who lost their lives in war. Each poppy is a symbol of remembrance and sacrifice, and the installation will be unveiled for Remembrance Sunday 2026.
 
If you’d like to take part and crochet some poppies, 
Helen has graciously shared the pattern: 



Once you’ve finished your poppies, please email appleblossomdreamz@gmail.com for a mailing address.


 Thank you so much for your support and for helping make this tribute extra special.


Warmly,
Astri
