That’s a beautiful crochet flower with leaves! 🌸✨ I’ll guide you step by step on how to make it.
🌿 Crochet Flower with Leaves Pattern
🧶 Materials
- Purple cotton yarn (flower)
- Green cotton yarn (leaves)
- Crochet hook (2.5–3 mm for thread, or 3.5–4 mm for yarn)
- Scissors, yarn needle
🌸 Flower (Purple)
Round 1 (center):
- Start with a magic ring.
- Chain (ch) 1.
- Work 12 single crochet (sc) inside the ring.
- Pull ring tight, join with a slip stitch (sl st) into the first sc. (12 stitches total)
Round 2 (petal foundation):
- Ch 3, skip 1 stitch, sl st in the next stitch.
- Repeat this around → you will have 6 chain-3 loops.
Round 3 (petals):
In each ch-3 loop:
- Work (1 sc, 1 half double crochet [hdc], 3 double crochet [dc], 1 hdc, 1 sc).
- Repeat in all loops → makes 6 petals.
- Join with sl st.
(Optional for fullness – 2nd round of petals):
- Behind the flower, work ch 4, sl st in next skipped stitch around.
- Crochet petals the same way in these loops → gives a double-layer flower.
🍃 Leaves (Green)
Leaf 1:
- Chain 10.
- Row 1 (first side):
- sc in 2nd chain from hook,
- hdc in next,
- dc in next 3,
- hdc in next,
- sc in next,
- sl st in last.
- Row 2 (other side of chain):
- sc in next,
- hdc in next,
- dc in next 3,
- hdc in next,
- sc in last.
→ This makes one pointed oval leaf.
Make 5–6 leaves (as in the photo).
🌿 Joining Leaves and Flower
- After finishing leaves, use green yarn to connect them around the flower’s backside with slip stitches or by sewing with a needle.
- The leaf in the picture being worked on is directly joined to the stem chain with double crochets—you can do this instead of making separate leaves.
✨ Tips
- For a neater finish, always block (steam lightly) the flower and leaves.
- Use mercerized cotton thread for better stitch definition.
- You can make different colors for petals and arrange them into a bouquet.
