Steps:
Flower Base
Start with Peach Yarn
- Make a magic ring.
- Chain 1.
- Place 10 half double crochets (hdc) into the magic ring.
- Pull on the tail to close the ring.
- Slip stitch into the first stitch to complete the circle.
Round 2:
- Chain 1.
- Place two hdc in each stitch around (20 stitches total).
- Slip stitch into the first stitch of this round.
Rounds 3 to 6:
- Repeat the pattern: Chain 1, one hdc in each stitch around (keep total stitches at 20).
- Slip stitch to close each round.
Flower Petals:
Next Steps for Petals:
- Chain 1. Do NOT work into the slip stitch spot but the next stitch.
- For pointy petals:
- Place 3 hdc, chain 2, slip stitch into the second chain from the hook, and then 3 more hdc into the same stitch.
- Skip a stitch, then slip stitch into the next stitch.
- Repeat around to create each petal, ensuring to slip stitch between each petal set.
Finishing the Flower:
- Complete the round by skipping a stitch after the last petal and slip stitching into the last stitch.
- Optionally, add an additional slip stitch where the first petal starts.
- Tie off and weave in ends.
Garland Assembly:
Starting the Garland:
- With a new piece of yarn, create a sliding loop and chain 20 to begin.
- Attach the first flower to the chain by single crocheting into one of the stitches of the flower, then single crochet directly opposite to secure it.
Creating Leaves and Adding Flowers:
- Chain 10, then create a partial double crochet leaf:
- Chain 3, partial double crochet into the third chain (yarn over, pull through two loops, yarn over, pull through all three loops).
- Chain two, then slip stitch into the second chain from the hook.
- Slip stitch into the chain side stitches to form the leaf base.
- Chain 10, and attach the next flower the same way as the first. Repeat as desired.
Finishing Touches:
- After the last flower, chain 20.
- Pull the yarn through, cut the yarn, and create a loop for hanging.
- Secure by tying off and trimming excess yarn.
