  • Yarn needle: For weaving in ends

Gauge


Before starting, it’s good to check your gauge. Make a swatch of 10 double crochets (dc) by 10 rows. If you measure about 4 inches square, you're good to go. If not, you may need to adjust your hook size.

  3. Round 2: Ch 2, *dc, inc* in each st around. Join with sl st to top of first dc. (18 dc)

  4. Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing.



Petals (make 5):

Finishing Tips


To achieve a polished look, consider blocking your flowers, especially if they seem curled or uneven. Gently wet the flower and pin it to shape, allowing it to dry completely.

  • Create a bouquet by making several flowers of various sizes and colors.
