This crochet flower pattern in your photo looks like a pinwheel-style 3D crochet flower made from two-tone petals (green and white). Here’s a step-by-step guide to make it:
🧶 Materials Needed
- Yarn: Two colors (example: green + white, or any contrast you like)
→ use medium weight (No. 3 or 4 cotton or acrylic yarn). - Hook: 2.5 mm – 3.0 mm crochet hook
- Scissors
- Yarn needle for sewing
- Pearl/button for the flower center (optional)
🌼 Step-by-Step Crochet Instructions
🔹 Step 1: Crochet One Petal (White)
Each petal is shaped like a small curved triangle.
- Start: Make a slip knot, then chain 11 (ch 11).
- Row 1:
- Start in 2nd chain from hook.
- Make 1 single crochet (sc) in each chain → you’ll have 10 sc.
- Chain 1, turn your work.
- Row 2:
- Sc in the next 9 stitches, leave the last one unworked (decrease).
- Chain 1, turn.
- Row 3:
- Sc in next 8 stitches, leave one unworked.
- Chain 1, turn.
- Continue the same way — each row, decrease 1 stitch at the end —
until you have only 1 stitch left. - Fasten off, cut the yarn, leaving a little tail for sewing.
✅ You now have a curved triangle — one petal.
🔹 Step 2: Make the Green Petal
Repeat exactly the same steps using the green yarn.
Make 6 white petals and 6 green petals (12 total).
🔹 Step 3: Join Petals in Pairs
Now we’ll make two-tone petals (green + white).
- Place one white petal and one green petal together side by side.
- Use your yarn needle and sew them along the straight edge.
- You can overlap the tips slightly to make them curved.
- Continue sewing all pairs until you have 6 double-colored petals.
🔹 Step 4: Assemble the Flower
- Arrange the 6 petals in a circle shape — alternate the colors to form a pinwheel pattern.
- Each petal should overlap the previous one slightly.
- Make sure the direction of the swirl is consistent (e.g., all clockwise).
- Sew all petals together in the center securely.
🔹 Step 5: Add the Center
- Sew or glue a pearl bead, button, or small crochet circle in the middle for decoration.
🔹 Step 6: Finishing Touches
- Use your yarn needle to weave in all the loose ends.
- You can lightly steam block or shape the petals to make them neat and even.
🌟 Optional Ideas
- Attach a pin on the back to make a brooch.
- Sew it onto a hat, bag, or blanket.
- Try other colors: pink & white, yellow & orange, etc.
