✅ Optional (for fuller petals)

If you want a 3D layered effect like in some of the flowers in the photo:

Add this extra step after Round 3:

🌸 Extra Round – Back Post Petals

Instead of working in the chain loop, work into the back of the puff stitch round.

1. Insert hook behind puff stitch.
2. Make: 2 treble stitches + 1 double stitch.
3. Repeat behind each puff.

This gives extra layers and deeper texture.

✅ Tips for Best Results

• Use soft acrylic yarn so petals expand nicely.
• Keep tension even to maintain circle shape.
• Change colors every round for a more vibrant flower.
• Use a 4mm or 5mm hook for nice, fluffy petals.
