step-by-step tutorial to make the daisy flower granny square shown in your image. It uses yellow + white + green yarn.

🌼 DAISY GRANNY SQUARE — FULL DETAILED TUTORIAL

⭐ Yarn & Hook

3 colors: yellow, white, green
Medium weight yarn (No. 3 or 4)
Hook size: 3.5 mm – 4 mm

🌼 ROUND 1 — YELLOW CENTER

1. Make Magic Ring

Wrap yarn around two fingers → pull working yarn through → make a loop.

2. Chain 2

This helps height but doesn’t count as a stitch.

3. Crochet 12 Double Crochets into the ring

Insert hook into the ring → yarn over → pull up a loop → complete double crochet (dc).

Repeat 12 times.

4. Close the ring

Pull the tail to tighten the middle.

5. Slip Stitch

Slip stitch into the first dc to close the circle.

✔ Now you have a neat yellow circle.

🌼 ROUND 2 — WHITE PETALS

Each petal is a 3-dc cluster, worked into EACH yellow stitch.

How to make a 3-dc cluster:

Yarn over, insert into stitch, pull up loop (3 loops on hook)
Yarn over, pull through 2 loops (2 loops remain)
Repeat steps again two more times
When you have 4 loops on hook, yarn over → pull through all loops

✔ This makes the “puffy petal” look.

Step-by-step:

Attach white yarn in any yellow stitch.
Chain 2 (not a stitch — just height).
Make 1 cluster in that stitch.
Chain 2.
Make 1 cluster + ch 2 in every yellow stitch around.

✔ You should end with 12 white petals.

Slip stitch into top of first cluster.

Your piece now looks like a daisy.

🌼 ROUND 3 — GREEN “PETAL BASE” ROUND

This round fills the spaces between petals and creates the foundation for the square.

Where to insert the hook:

👉 Between two white petals, in the chain-2 space from the previous round.

Steps:

Join green yarn in any ch-2 space.
Chain 3 (counts as 1 dc).
In the same space: 2 more dc. (Total 3 dc)
Into the next ch-2 space: 3 dc.
Repeat 3 dc in every petal space until you complete the circle.

You will have 12 groups of 3 dc.

Slip stitch to finish.

✔ Still a circle — the square shape comes next.

🌼 ROUND 4 — FORM THE SQUARE (Green)

This is the shaping round.

We create 4 corners.

Corner formula:

👉 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc in the SAME space

Step-by-step (Slow + Detailed):

Insert hook into any space between 3-dc groups.
Chain 3 (counts as dc).
Work 2 dc in same space.
Next space: 3 dc.
Next space: 3 dc.

Now you reach where the corner should be:

In the next space: 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc → Corner 1
Keep going: 3 dc in next 2–3 spaces.
Next space: 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc → Corner 2
Repeat until you make all 4 corners.
