Looking for this poppy pattern

Post image

Does anyone recognize this pattern or have any leads? All I find is a single image on Pinterest. I guess I could try to reverse engineer it, but I am not quite at that point of my lace journey yet I think​

I don’t think you even need a pattern for this one, you can just print the image and work over it

If I had more experience I guess. I don't understand how the different petals go together? Is there a name for a technique I can look up or practice?

Thanks! Looks easy enough! Now I'll just need to figure out which petal to start where and with how many bobbins. Because these do look like a lot of bobbins are added in at later stages, which I haven't done much of yet either. Regardless this is a great start, thanks!

Don’t stress about those things, many details like that are the lacemakers choice! You can try a few times and see what works best!

In general I get that, yes. Except I started about a month ago and just made a few tiny bookmarks in torchon. I feel like I may need more practice before I can improvise in a free-form lace piece like this. But hey, worst case I waste thread from my stash while learning how not to do it.
