Flower Center (Use Yellow Yarn):
Round 1:
- Create a circle by making a slip knot.
- Work 6 single crochet (sc) in the circle.
- If you're a beginner, consider using a stitch marker to mark the first stitch.
- Close the circle by pulling the tail and then the yarn to tighten.
Round 2:
- Join with the first stitch using a slip stitch.
- Chain 1 (ch 1), which doesn't count as a stitch.
- Work an increase pattern: [1 sc, 2 sc in the next stitch] 3 times.
- By the end of this round, you should have 9 stitches.
- Join with a slip stitch and ch 1 for the next round.
After Round 3:
- Work 1 sc in each of the first two stitches.
- Work 2 sc in the third stitch.
- Repeat this pattern ([1 sc in the next two stitches, 2 sc in the following stitch]) 3 times.
- By the end of this round, you should have 12 sc.
- Join with the first stitch using a slip stitch and cut off the yarn.
Flower Torus (Use Green Yarn):
- Repeat the steps above to create a flower heart for the flower torus.
Petals (Use Purple or White Yarn):
Petals Creation:
- Start with a slip knot using purple or white yarn.
- Join the two parts (flower heart and torus) and the petal yarn together.
- Chain 6 (ch 6).
- Starting from the second chain from the hook, work 1 sc, 1 half-double crochet (hdc) in each of the next three spaces, then 1 sc in the last space.
- Slip stitch to the yellow center in the next space to join, hiding the yarn tail.
- Continue until you have completed all petals, using yarn tails as stuffing for the flower.
- Insert the stem and add any additional stuffing as needed.
- After finishing all petals, join with a slip stitch to the first stitch of the first petal and cut off the yarn.
Straightening the Petals:
- Work chain stitches along the back of each petal to straighten them if desired.
- Start with a slip knot and work chains between the stitches of each petal from the back.
- Move to the next petal and repeat the process.
- Hide all tails with a yarn needle when finished.
