This crochet pattern in the image is a spiral flower with looped petals, often called a Crochet Spiral Petal Flower. Here’s a detailed step-by-step tutorial on how to make it:
🌼 Crochet Spiral Loop Flower Tutorial (Detailed)
🧶 Materials
- Yarn colors:
- Green (for spiral base)
- Yellow (for petals)
- Hook: 3.0–4.0 mm
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
🪡 Step 1: Crochet the Green Spiral Base
- Start with a slip knot on your hook.
- Chain 36 (you can adjust this later — more chains = bigger flower).
- In the 4th chain from the hook, make 1 double crochet (dc).
- Continue making 1 dc in each chain until the end of the row.
👉 You’ll have a straight row of double crochets. - Chain 3 (counts as first dc), turn your work.
- Make 2 dc in each stitch across the row.
This increase will make your piece naturally curl into a spiral shape.
Continue until you reach the end. - Fasten off the green yarn and leave a small tail for weaving.
🌀 Now you’ll see a spiral-like green strip — that’s the flower base.
🌻 Step 2: Crochet the Yellow Loop Petals
- Attach yellow yarn at the inner side of the green spiral (beginning of row).
- Insert hook into the first green stitch.
- Pull yellow yarn through and chain 1 to secure.
- Work along the green stitches as follows:
- Chain 15 (for a long petal) or chain 10 (for a shorter petal).
- Slip stitch into the next green stitch.
- Repeat this all the way along the green spiral.
🪷 Example pattern:
(ch 15, sl st in next stitch) repeat to end of row
👉 Each chain makes one petal loop, and slip stitches anchor them to the green base.
- Continue until you reach the end of the green spiral.
You’ll now have a spiral with big yellow loops forming a flower-like edge. - Fasten off the yellow yarn and weave in ends neatly.
🌼 Step 3: Forming the Flower Shape
- Lay the spiral flat on a surface.
- Start coiling it from the inner end toward the outside.
- As you coil, the yellow loops will open outward like petals.
- Use a yarn needle and green yarn tail to sew the base (underside) of the spiral together.
This keeps your flower from unrolling.
💡 Tip: You can stitch just through the green base (not through the yellow loops) to keep the petals fluffy.
🌸 Step 4: Finishing Touches
- Shape the yellow loops with your fingers so they’re even.
- You can add a center (optional):
- Crochet a small circle (magic ring, 6 sc → inc round → sew to center)
- Or use a button, bead, or felt piece.
🌻 Step 5: Use Ideas
You can use your spiral flower for:
- Hair clips or headbands
- Brooch pins
- Bag or hat decorations
- Sew several together to make a floral garland or pillow
