I often share quite a few crafts I’ve made from other people’s patterns, but there hasn’t been much that has come directly from my own brain. Sooo, I am going to rectify that now and share a crochet pattern for little flowers that I’ve come up with myself.
It’s a pattern for some delicate little flowers. I’m sure there are lots of similar ones out there, but this one is nice because I created it for my friend’s daughter. She wanted some hair clips with crochet flowers, and this is what I came up with. There are two sizes because the first size I made was just a bit too big to stick on a hair clip. So, I downsized the flower motif. I don’t remember if I took photographs of the original flowers I made; this idea happened about two years ago!
Little Flower Crochet Pattern
Please excuse me if the pattern doesn’t work; I’ve never done this properly before. My notebook has words and pictures that I deciphered, translating that has been…interesting… Gosh, if that doesn’t fill you with confidence!
For both of these quick crochet patterns, I used a 3mm hook and Stylecraft Special DK. I’ve written the pattern in UK terms.
Small Crochet Flower Pattern
Chain (ch) 6 and join with a slip stitch (ss).
Round 1: Ch3, 1tr into the ring (counts as 1 pair of spokes), (ch5, 2tr into ring) x5, ch5 and join with a ss to the top of the ch3 – [6 petals].
Fasten off (Fo).
Round 2: Join new colour with a ss between a pair of spokes (pictured above), 6dc in each 5ch sp (space), ss in between each pair of spokes, join with a ss to the first ss. Fo and sew in ends. (Round 2 is pictured, below).
Extra Small Flower Pattern.
Ch5 and join with a ss.
Round 1: Ch2, 1htr into ring (counts as 1 pair of spokes), (ch3, 2htr) x4, ch3 and join with ss to the top of the ch2. – [5petals]. Fo.
Round 2: Join new colour with a ss in between a pair of spokes. 4dc in each 3ch sp, ss in between each pair of spokes. Join with a ss to the first stitch. Fo and sew in ends.
With the help of a glue gun, just wodge these on a hair clip. I can see lots of them together on a headband, too, or do whatever you like with them! I am pretty sure these little crochet flowers are very versatile!
My First Ever Written Crochet Pattern!
There, my first ever published crochet pattern. I do have more designs that I’m going to blog about, including one that I am completely in love with, which is very cute indeed. I want to see if I’ve got this one right before I get overexcited though. I’d love to hear what people think, but please don’t hate it!!
That is a cute little flower! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks!
Beautiful, thank you for sharing, must make a few.
Let me know if it works!!
Yeah, will do, I’m sure it’s perfect!
I’m trying out your pattern, very easy to read and pictures really help. On round 2 of big flower do you mean 6 SC into each space. your pattern reads 6 DC, I did the dc but looking at your picture it looks like a 6 SC. Hope this makes sense. I would say it looks good with either. I did 6 dc and it looks pretty. hope I’m not confusing things!
They’re UK terms where a dc is the same as an sc. I’ll check to make sure though. Thank you for making it!
What a sweet little flower! I’ve book marked it to try later, but the instructions look very clear and easy to follow. Thank you.
Lovely. Let me know how it goes!
I’ve just made one of each using embroidery thread instead of wool, they are so darling!
Awesome! I bet they look really pretty 😀
These flowers are adorable. I can think of a ton of projects I could use these cuties.
Very quick, very easy to follow & absolutely adorable. I think I’m going to use them on crocheted chokers for my bridesmaids. Thanx for a sweet little pattern.
Oh that’s lovely, thank you very much. I bet they’ll look beautiful
