I have knitted some sweet booties which I want to finish off with little silk rosebuds. Am new to knitting and wondered if anyone had any recommendations for online suppliers - not having much success with my own googling - don't know what to call them.

John Lewis do them, I don't know if they're for sale online though. Or any sewing shop will usually sell little packets of them.

I got wool from laughing hens website. They had loads of buttons and beads but no rose buds. can't find on JL site. Would they be called trimmings?

There's a stall on our market that does them (it sells the most fab ribbon, buttons etc). Cost about £1 for 8.

Sounds like you're all sorted now but if anyone else needs any there are usually lots on eBay. JL don't seem to do stuff like this online, just in the shops.
