I love crochet flowers!


These crochet flowers are super simple to make!  I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice yarn and a crochet hook H.

I hope you can understand the instructions. I would love your feedback or any suggestions on wording for the pattern.

    Wow this is a great pattern – thank you, I just used it as a finishing touch to a baby girls afghan/blanket – sewn on very well of course. It looks great – thanks again, Michele

  6. Pam says

    In round 4, I understand that you go around the post of the dc from the back, but am I supposed to do sc, ch 4, sc and then sc before chaining 4 again?

    Thanks. I think I made it right, but I decided to re-do it with a smaller hook, as it was too big with the J hook I used. I’m gonna try it again later today.

  8. Kim says

    I had a bit of a hard time understanding the pattern at first but once I got, wooooowwwwww. I LOVE this flower pattern!!! its so pretty and fluffy! and is now is to make since doing it twice. Thank you for sharing your pattern with us!!

  12. mama spins says

    I used a G hook and my flower measured 4 inches across the front. The flower appears much smaller to me at least in your picture.

  14. Sandra says

    If anyone makes a video that would be great. I made it to the 6th round, round 4 was explained but unsure if I did it right. I’m going to try round six. Hopefully it looks good when I’m done.

  22. Deirdre says

    Just finished my flower. Thanks so much for putting up this pattern! I found it on Pinterest and I’m delighted with the finished product.

  26. Kathryn says

    Do you plan on making a video on how to make this flower? I was able to follow the pattern to the point of finishing round 3 but couldn’t figure out from there(new to reading patterns). I learn quicker and easier from watching someone demonstrate this is the only reason I ask. Thank you.

  28. cynthia says

    I love these flowers! I just made a blanket for my daughter, and these flowers are the perfect touch, she loves them because they are pretty, I Love them because they are eash and quick to make.

  30. Gracie says

    Perfect! Exactly what I was looking for to embellish chemo hats I’ve been making. I made them with a pin backing so they can be mixed and matched. A great stash buster too!

  32. Debbie says

    Just made this flower to put on a hat. Really pleased with it. Thank you for sharing the pattern x

  40. Lindsey W says

    What she means is you take your hook and enter from the back go around the dc towars the back again then sc… (almost like a back post double crochet excet you are just single crochet) then you chain 4 then go from behind to the front and around dc towards the back again and sc again… you are outlining the petals if the visual makes sense. google back post double crochet approach the stitch the same way but single crochet instead and you ll get it!…

    s X . X s
    if X is the double . is the treble and s is the single you will insert needle from behind the work in between the s and first X go in front of the X and back out the other side then single crochet. Chain four then insert hook from back to front in between the . and second X going aroung the X with the hook ending behind the work and single crochet again… repeat around and you ll get what looks in the picture hope that helps…

  42. TERI MYERS says

    I’m having trouble understanding “Working behind sc ch 4 around each dc in 2nd round,”. Not sure how to do that. are there instructions on how to do that?

  44. Linda Pallares says

    I need to crochet a baby blanket and I misplaced my pattern. It’s a double crochet shell baby blanket. Need a pattern could you help me

  48. Angela Armstrong says

    Hi,
    5th round – sc, dc, 2trc, dc, in each chain 4 space around. (8 petals) slip stitch in first sc

    Is that meant to have a sc after the second dc… so sc, dc, 2trc, dc, SC?

    Loving this flower. Doing it in alternate colours for the petals. I’ll post a ravelry link to the finished pic when I’m done.
    xoxo

    This really is amazing, You are a pretty qualified doodlekit. I have got signed up with the give as well as crunch with regard to searching for further within your fantastic posting. Additionally, I’ve got contributed your internet-site inside my social networking sites

  54. Alison says

    This pattern is wonderful!!! I am making one as we speak – but I am a little stuck on the 4th round. I don’t quite understand what I should be doing :-/

  56. crochetlove says

    This is so easy! and the flower is so fluffy! my favorite flower pattern so far!

  58. SusieQ says

    OH how I love these flowers! I wish you could do a You Tube video on crocheting them – I’m a bit confused on the rounds and how they go. 🙁 Visual would be just perfect!!

  60. Janet says

    I have just recently learnt to make these flowers. Your pattern with eight petals rather then the five or six that seems usual is fantastic. It makes up into a beautiful flower. Thank you for sharing your pattern.

  64. dolors says

    me gustaria hacer unas sandalitas de las que hay en la foto ,pero no encuentro la explicacion. gracias.

  66. Janet Aquadro says

    Too cool, extra cute flowers. I’m going to incorporate into the granny square afghan I’m working on.

  70. Angela says

    I made it to row 3 and now I am totally lost on row4. Can you explain this or is there a video? I really want to learn how to make these flowers. Thanks

  72. Christine Vanlue says

    I get lost after row three. Is there a video or more pictures to follow. I really appreciate your posting this pattern and would love to make these.

  74. Amy says

    It does look like round 4 means to work behind the petals you created. sc around the posts of each petal. You created these dc posts in round d 2 and now you’ll be creating them again in round 4. So sc then ch 4 around each post.

  76. Amy says

    I’m also confused with round 4 and “working behind”. Do you mean work behind the 2nd row ch 4 posts? I’m going to try it out and see. I’ll post if I figure it out.

  80. Lucy Bird says

    Hello, I got up to step 4 and then was confused by what “working behind” meant. If you could give me an example that would be great! 🙂 I’m trying my hand at different flowers to put on the earmuff headbands I’ve been working on.

  82. Geri Ayers says

    Love making flowers, made over 300 during November to share with Stitches from the Heart members. Saves them a lot of time when making hats for charity

  84. Jean says

    What a pretty collection of flowers. The picture gives a very good of colours to be used. I like the fact that they give the effect of looking into the flower rather than the usual flat type of pattern.

    Thank you.

  86. Mary says

    I love these, but I’m confused when I get to 4th round. Is there a video tutorial that I can watch. I want to learn these. they are so cute. I’m just learning to crochet and I’m struggling a little bit. thanks!

  92. Ann Marie says

    Love these flowers for ear warmer wraps – prettiest flower I have found and my teenage daughters approve!
    Please do not move this pattern or I will be sunk.

  94. Angelina says

    Thank you so much for posting the video, I also had a difficult time following the pictures and diagrams. I finally completed the flower and I love it! Thank you for posting the pattern.

  98. Kathy says

    Thank you for the pattern! I just taught myself to crochet recently, and making these flowers was the main reason I wanted to learn, so I was pleased that I was able to do your pattern. I think there might be an error in the pattern on row 5, though. Your pattern calls for sc, dc, 2trc, dc, in each chain 4 space around; but the other petals are made by sc, dc, trc, dc, and finishing with a sc. Should row 5 be sc, dc, 2trc, dc, sc in each chain 4 space around?

    Crochet Flowers catch my attentions when i see your article. Very..very charming and hope to have one to pair with my dress.

  106. Manon says

    They are very beautiful….but since I’m a french person I don’t understand the instructions…. a video would be nice…I really would love to make them for my scrapbooking exposition in november… Thank you so much for sharing with us…

  108. DigiDeb says

    WooHoo!!!! Thank you so much for your generosity. Every time I go into the craft store I just cringe at the cost of the crochet flowers especially because I crochet and knew I could do them. Ran across your blogsite and instructions and pulled out my yarn and just love these flowers. Can’t wait to add them to my various projects – I just love this multi-layered flower – it is my favorite. Again, TFS!

  110. Mamaladybug says

    I couldn’t believe how quickly these stitched up! These are so stylish and will look cute on anything. This one I just finished will adore my niece’s baby hat. Thank you so much for your instructions!

  112. Dianne says

    Thanks so much for making these patterns available. Have crotched my granddaughters some hats and these flowers will be the finishing touches. They are beautiful and your instructions are great. Thanks again for sharing.

  130. Jenny says

    I really want to make a ton of these and sew them together for a blanket for my 4-year-old. How adorable!!!!!!!!

  134. Erin says

    These are some of the cutest crochet flowers I’ve seen! I haven’t been brave enough to try making any yet, but when I am, I think I’ll use your pattern. Thanks so much for sharing it!

  146. Daysi says
