Crochet Flower Pattern

Five & 6 Petal Flower (Free Pattern)

So it was time for me to write up this pattern, after some confirmation that it would actually be worth it! I've been hella busy the last few days, got my first few paid orders, so that is definitely exciting, and spend far too much (jokes) on yarn and supplies!

So, without further ado, my flower pattern.


______________________________________________________________________________

Five & 6 Petal Flower


Any yarn or hook size will work for these, just depends on what you want! I used a 6mm and 100% acrylic yarn for the above pictured, and they are palm sized.

Create a magic circle.
3 DC into circle, chain 2. Repeat 4 times for a 5 petal flower, repeat 5 times for a 6 petal flower.
Make sure you chain 2 before slip stitching to start! You should have 5 or 6 ch2sp.

slip stitch in next DC to reach your first ch2. 6DC in ch2sp. Slip stitch in next 2 DC, 6 DC in ch2sp. Repeat around. When you finish your last petal, slip stitch into first DC, finish and weave in ends.

See, very easy! If there is anything you don't understand, feel free to comment and I'll do my best to help.

Quirky Heart

 So, I was fiddling around, trying to create a teddy bear applique (that has not yet come to fruition). Instead, I ended up with what can only be called a 'Quirky Heart'. You could use these as embellishments for scarves & hats, or hang them like a garland. Throw them on a card, or just have them on a table as something cute.

Since it is such a simple and easy pattern (and my first pattern ever) I thought I'd give it to you for free! How cool is that?

I do ask that you don't sell the pattern, but feel free to sell whatever you make. Be sure to sure with your friends, and Pin It to Pinterest!

Stay crafty!
