This pattern is an add-on to Crocus Carla / Lalylala Seasons - Spring
What is an add-on? An add-on is a little additional pattern to a commercial lalylala pattern. Using the add-on you can modify the original amigurumi or add new parts to turn it into something else. You can't use an add-on without the original pattern that it's related to! Of course you don't necissarily need to use the add-on to modify crocus Carla. You can also decorate your Easter baskets with the early flowers without the flower bulb

Assembling
Thread a needle and use the yarn tails to sew the buds and flowers onto the stem, beginning with a round of bud type 1 on top and finish with the flowers. Pull every remaining yarn tail inside the stem's tube. This will make the stem stable so it won't drop due to the weight of the blossoms. Cut the blue yarn tails and sew the flower on top of the flower bulb.
