  • Size H (5.0 mm) crochet hook
  • Yarn needle for weaving ends

Gauge:

Abbreviations:

  • ch: chain
  • sc: single crochet
  • dc: double crochet
  • sl st: slip stitch
  • rnd: round

Instructions:

Flower Center:

  1. Using any color (e.g. Yellow), make a magic ring.
  2. Round 1: Ch 1, 6 sc into the magic ring. Pull the ring tight. (6 sc)
  3. Round 2: Ch 1, 2 sc in each stitch around. (12 sc)
  4. Round 3: Ch 1, *sc in the next st, 2 sc in the next st* repeat from * to * around. (18 sc)
  5. Fasten off and weave in ends.

Flower Petals:

  1. Using the color of your choice, attach yarn to the first st of the flower center with a slip stitch.
  2. Ch 3, dc in the same st, ch 2, sl st in the same st for the first petal. (This creates one petal.)
  3. Repeat this for each stitch around the flower center until you have 6 petals. (You can make more petals for a fuller flower if desired.)
  4. Fasten off and weave in ends.

Assembling Flowers:

  1. Make several flower centers and petals using different colors.
  2. You can layer smaller flowers on top of larger ones for added dimension if desired.

Finishing Tips:

After all flowers are complete, consider lightly steaming them to shape the petals if they curl. You can also use a fabric stiffener if you want them to hold their shape more firmly.

Optional Variations:

Feel free to experiment with different types of yarns, such as cotton for a more rustic look, or even glittery yarns for a special touch. Add beads or buttons to the center of the flowers for additional charm!
