Crochet Flower Pattern

Materials List

• Yarn Type: Baby acrylic yarn (or preferred yarn; adjust hook size accordingly)
  • Three different colors (center, petals, and border).
• Hook Size: 3.0 mm crochet hook
• Tools: Scissors, tapestry needle
• Optional: Stitch markers (recommended for beginners)

Skill Level

Intermediate to Advanced

Key Abbreviations (US Crochet Terminology)

• ch: Chain
• sc: Single crochet
• hdc: Half double crochet
• dc: Double crochet
• tr: Treble crochet
• sl st: Slip stitch
• magic ring: Magic circle to create a foundation
• inc: Increase (work two stitches into the same stitch)

Special Notes

• Adjust yarn thickness and hook size to achieve desired petal and flower size. Thicker yarn and larger hooks create larger flowers, while thinner yarn and smaller hooks make smaller flowers.
• Work loosely when needing petal volume for the finished result.
• This flower design consists of a pronounced center, layered petals, and a border.

Pattern Instructions

Step 1: Flower Center

1. Start with color for the center (ex. yellow or lighter tone):
   • Make a magic ring.
   • Ch 3 (counts as the first dc).
   • Work 15 dc into the magic ring.
2. Tighten the ring but leave a small hole in the center.
   Save
3. Cut the thread and secure with a knot:
   • Use the tapestry needle to finish by working through the first stitch, pulling through to secure a flat finish.
   • Hide loose ends inside the stitches.

Step 2: First Petal Round

Color for Petals (Example: Pink)

1. Attach your new yarn color to any dc stitch from the previous round.
2. Create a slip knot, and pull through.
3. Build the base for the petals:
   • Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc).
   • In the same stitch, work 1 dc (an increase).
   • Repeat 2 dc into each dc around the entire round (total 30 dc).
     Save
4. End the round with a sl st into the third chain from the starting ch.

Step 3: Building Petals Shape

This round establishes the 3D structure and height for the petals.

1. Ch 1: Start the petal details by working in the following sequence.
2. Across each petal, repeat the sequence:
   • Into the first stitch: sc
   • Into the second stitch: hdc
   • Into the third stitch: dc (increase)
   • Into the fourth stitch: Work 3 tr (triple crochet, increase)
   • Into the fifth stitch: dc (increase)
   • Into the sixth stitch: hdc
   • Into the seventh stitch: sc
     Save
3. Continue repeating the petal stitch sequence across the round to make 5 petals.
4. Finish the round with a sl st to close the round.

Step 4: Final Petal Enhancements

1. Resume the petal structure by creating a second layer of increases within the existing petals.
2. Repeat petal sequences for sc, hdc, dc, five dc increases, and corresponding treble/double stitches.
3. End this layer by completing the petal tips one by one and shaping nicely using the same sl st to finish.

Step 5: Border Round

Color for Border (Example: Natural/Raw Color)

1. Attach the third yarn color to any sc around a petal edge.
   Save
2. For the border:
   • Ch 1
   • Work sc in each stitch of the petal edges.
   • At the junction point between petals, insert the hook into the space, work a long sc (pulled stitch), and resume working around the next petal edge.
3. Once reaching the starting point, fasten off and cut the yarn.
4. Save
   Secure thread using a tapestry needle, tying discreet knots and hiding all tail ends.

Conclusion

Your crochet flower project is complete! The flower should have beautiful volume with a layered appearance. The center offers a neat, circular shape, and petals exhibit depth and texture. The final border adds a clean, polished finish.

Pattern Corrections and Tips

1. Petal Count: Ensure the petal sequence is repeated consistently across all stitches. Miscounts on petal shaping may create uneven results.
2. Tidy Finish: Use a tapestry needle carefully to avoid pulling yarn too tight when hiding ends.
3. Customizations:
   • If you want larger petals, add more rounds of increases following principles (dc, tr) with proportional stitch counts.
   • Add contrast with metallic or gradient yarn for a unique effect.
