🌺 Crochet Loop Petal Flower – Full Detailed Tutorial

🧵 Materials

• Yarn: Medium-weight cotton or acrylic (pink in photo)
• Hook: 2.5 mm – 3.5 mm (depending on yarn thickness)
• Bead or pearl for the center
• Scissors and yarn needle

🔹 Step 1: Make the Flower Center

1. Magic Ring:
   • Wrap the yarn around two fingers to create a loop.
   • Insert hook into the loop, yarn over, pull up a loop.
   • Chain 1 to secure the loop.
2. Round 1:
   • Crochet 6 single crochets (sc) into the magic ring.
   • Pull the tail to tighten the ring.
   • Join with a slip stitch (sl st) to the first sc.
     → You now have a small round base (6 stitches total).

🔹 Step 2: Create the First Petal Layer (Short Loops)

1. Start Loops:
   • Chain 10 (this creates the first loop).
   • Slip stitch (sl st) into the next stitch of the round to anchor it.
   • Repeat this in every stitch around:
     → [ch 10, sl st into next stitch] around the circle.
   • You’ll get 6 loop petals around the center.
2. End Round:
   • After the last loop, slip stitch into the base of the first loop to close the round.
   • Don’t cut yarn — we’ll build the next layer on top.

🔹 Step 3: Second Petal Layer (Longer Loops)

Now you’ll work behind the first layer.

1. Turn your flower slightly and insert your hook into the back loop or behind each stitch base (where you made the first petals).
2. Chain 12 (slightly longer for the second layer).
3. Slip stitch into the next back loop stitch.
4. Repeat: [ch 12, sl st into next back loop] around.
   → This gives you 6 new, larger loop petals behind the first layer.

🔹 Step 4: Optional – Third Petal Layer (Extra Fullness)

If you want your flower to be fuller (like a chrysanthemum):

1. Work one more layer behind the second layer.
2. Chain 14 or 16 for each loop petal.
3. Slip stitch into the next base stitch behind.
   → You’ll get 6–8 large outer petals.

🔹 Step 5: Add the Pearl Bead Center

1. Thread your yarn needle with a small piece of yarn or sewing thread.
2. Place a pearl bead in the center.
3. Secure it by sewing through the center hole and knotting behind the flower.

🔹 Step 6: Finish the Flower

1. Cut the yarn leaving a small tail.
2. Pull through the last loop and tighten.
3. Use your yarn needle to weave in all loose ends at the back.
4. Gently spread and arrange each loop petal evenly with your fingers.

🌸 Optional – Make a Flower Chain (as seen in background)

1. Crochet the first flower completely.
2. Start the next flower by chaining 8–10 stitches from the previous one.
3. Repeat the entire flower pattern, attaching it by slip stitch to the last chain.
4. Continue to make a connected flower trim or garland.

✅ Tips

• Keep your chain loops uniform in length for neat petals.
• For a smaller flower, use fewer chains (like 8 or 9 for petals).
• For a larger flower, add an extra petal layer and increase chain length.
• Use a stiffer yarn or apply light fabric stiffener to keep petals perky.
