Crochet Flowers Pattern
Necessary Materials
- Yarn:
- Nako Pırlanta Yarn in pink and white is used in the video. You may substitute with any light, soft yarn for similar results.
- Crochet Hook:
- 2.5mm crochet hook (recommended for this project).
- Additional Tools:
- Scissors for cutting the yarn.
- Tapestry needle for helping sew edges and finish off the flower neatly.
- Optional:
- Silicone glue if you prefer gluing the parts together instead of sewing.
Gauge
Gauge is not critical for this project. However, using a 2.5mm hook and light weight yarn will produce a flower approximately 3-5 cm in diameter, depending on tension and yarn type.
Finished Size
The final flower size should measure around 3-5 cm in diameter, depending on the yarn and the hook used.
Pattern Features
- Double Sided Design: The flower can be used on either side, giving flexibility in placement.
- Multi Purpose Use: Add it to hair clips, shoes, baby blankets, bags, or even make a bouquet.
Pattern Instructions
Follow the step by step guide to make your daisy flower.
Step 1: Begin with 77 Chain Stitches
- Start with the pink yarn to make the foundation chain.
- Using the 2.5mm crochet hook, chain 77 stitches to form the base.
- Keep your stitches loose to avoid stretching or tightening the chain structure.
Step 2: Working Slip Stitches Along the Chain
- Starting from the 76th chain, work a slip stitch into each chain across the row.
- Slip stitches create a smooth and sturdy base for the flower.
- Make sure your stitches are not too tight.
- Finish the first side of the chain row, then turn your work to the opposite side.
- Insert the hook into the remaining loops of the chain (on the other side) and continue creating slip stitches across until you reach the end.
Step 3: Preparing for Flower Assembly
- Cut the yarn, leaving an extra long tail.
- This tail will be used for sewing the flower into its final petal shape.
- Pull the end of the yarn through the last slip stitch to secure.
Step 4: Creating the Curl Structure of the Petals
- Thread the long yarn tail into a tapestry needle.
- Begin folding and stitching:
- Count 12 stitches along the chain row.
- Using the needle, stitch from the 12th stitch to the 13th stitch and pull to create a curl or fold.
- Secure it tightly to ensure the petal does not unfurl.
- Repeat the same process for the next sets of 12 stitches until the entire chain row forms three large petals resembling a daisy shape.
Step 5: Stitching the Flower Petals Together
- Align the three petals into a circular flower arrangement.
- Overlap the edges slightly to give the flower a full and natural look.
- Use your needle and the remaining yarn to securely sew the overlapping petals together.
- Insert the needle through the edges and stitch in place at least twice to avoid gaps.
- Pull the thread tightly, cut off any excess yarn, and weave in loose ends for a clean finish.
Step 6: Adding the White Center (Optional)
- To make the small white center of the daisy, follow these steps:
- Using white yarn, create a magic ring.
- Crochet one chain stitch to secure the ring.
- Work 6 single crochet (SC) stitches into the ring.
- Pull the tail tightly to close the circle.
- Slip stitch into the first SC stitch to join the round.
- Add a second crochet round:
- Chain 1, and work 1 single crochet stitch into each stitch from the previous round (no increases).
- Complete the round and cut the yarn, leaving a tail.
- Secure the white center by sewing or gluing it to the middle of the flower petals.
Special Techniques Used
Magic Ring
The magic ring method creates a neat and seamless circular base for crochet projects. It's ideal for making small centers like the white part of the daisy flower.
Slip Stitch
Slip stitches are used for the chain row and give a delicate and smooth finish to the entire flower structure.
Tips for Success
- Loose Tension:
- Avoid pulling your stitches too tight, as it may make the assembly process difficult.
- Customization:
- Use different colors of yarn for unique petal combinations. You can create multi colored flowers for fun variety.
- Glue or Sew:
- If sewing feels challenging, use silicone glue to attach the petals securely.
- Double Sided Usage:
- The flower looks great on both the front and back side, so you can assemble it based on your preference.
