Simple Crochet Flower Pattern
Abbreviations:
- ch = chain
- sl st = slip stitch
- sc = single crochet
- dc = double crochet
Step 1: Create the Center
Ch 4, then join with a sl st to form a ring.
Round 1: Ch 1 (counts as a stitch), then 6 sc into the center of the ring. Join with a sl st into the first sc to close the round.
Step 2: Petals
Round 2:
- Ch 2, then work 2 dc into the same stitch.
- In the next stitch, work sl st.
- Repeat this pattern around: (Ch 2, 2 dc in the next stitch, sl st in the next stitch).
- You should end up with 5 or 6 petals, depending on the number of stitches in the ring.
After completing the last petal, sl st to the base of the first petal to finish.
Step 3: Finishing
- Cut the yarn, leaving a tail.
- Use your tapestry needle to weave in the ends.
