Beautiful crochet flower

That’s a crochet spiral flower — a beautiful layered design that starts as a flat spiral and curls into a 3D rose-like shape. 🌹
Here’s how you can make it step-by-step:

🌸 Crochet Spiral Flower (Detailed Step-by-Step Tutorial)

🧶 Materials

• Yarn: Medium-weight (category 3 or 4) — green for the base, red for petals
• Hook: 2.5–3.5 mm (depending on your yarn)
• Scissors
• Yarn needle

🌿 Step 1: Crochet the Green Spiral Base (stem part)

This will form the base that helps the flower curl naturally.

1. Start with green yarn
   Make a slip knot and chain 45.
2. Row 1:
   • Starting in the 2nd chain from hook, work 1 single crochet (sc) in each chain across.
   • You’ll have 44 sc total.
   • Don’t pull tight — keep your stitches even.
3. Row 2 (increase row for curling):
   • Chain 1, turn.
   • Work 2 single crochet (sc) in each stitch across.
   • This doubling makes the base start to curl naturally (important for the spiral shape).
4. Row 3 (final base texture):
   • Chain 1, turn.
   • Work 1 half double crochet (hdc) in the first stitch, 2 hdc in the next, repeat this pattern across.
   • Cut the yarn, leaving a short tail.

✅ You’ll now have a curved, slightly spiraled green strip.
This will be the base where you attach your red petals.

🌺 Step 2: Crochet the Red Petal Layer

Now we’ll crochet red petals along one edge of the green spiral.

1. Attach red yarn to one end of the green strip (the narrower side).
2. Foundation loops for petals:
   • Chain 3, skip 1 stitch, single crochet in the next.
   • Repeat this pattern (ch 3, skip 1, sc in next) across the entire row.
   • This creates little chain-3 loops — the bases for your petals.
3. Petal row:
   In each chain-3 loop, do the following: (sc, hdc, 3 dc, hdc, sc) This gives each petal a nice rounded shape.
4. Continue across every chain loop to form a long wavy strip full of petals.
   By the end, it should look like the photo on the left (a spiral strip with red petals and a green center).

🌹 Step 3: Assemble the Flower

This part turns your flat spiral into a 3D layered bloom.

1. Curl the strip inward starting from the smaller end.
   • Keep the green part as the center (stem/inner spiral).
   • As you roll, the petals will naturally stack up, forming layers.
2. Sew the base as you go using a yarn needle and the green or red tail.
   • Make a few stitches through the bottom layer each time you roll around.
   • This secures the flower shape and prevents unraveling.
3. Adjust petals
   • Fluff the petals outward for volume.
   • Tuck the inner ones tight and spread the outer ones.
4. Finish:
   • Fasten off and weave in ends neatly.
   • You can also glue a felt circle to the bottom to make it neat and stable.

🌼 Optional Add-ons

• Add a pearl or bead in the center.
• Attach a pin, hair clip, or keychain ring to the back.
• For a larger flower, start with a longer chain (60–70 stitches).
