Making the Turnip Leaves:

Start with a Slip Knot and Chain 11 Stitches:

Move to another chain and slip stitch, then slip stitch in the next chain.
In the next chain, execute two half double crochets, and then two double crochets in the following chain.

Work Back Down the Other Side of the Chain:

Starting from the end, mirror the pattern you created going up the chain but in reverse, ending with the slip stitches.

Sew the ending thread through the leaf to secure, creating one complete leaf.
Repeat the steps to create a second identical leaf.
