Dainty and Delicate Flower Pattern

A customer of mine wanted several delicate flowers with eight petals crocheted out of cotton thread. And this is what I came up with! I decided to share the pattern with my fellow crocheters.


Use these flowers to embellish hats, bags... anything! Or use them on their own to make brooches, necklaces, headbands, etc.

Dainty and Delicate Flowers

 

Materials:

Crochet Cotton Thread, size 3

Crochet hook appropriate to your thread

Create a magic loop or ch. 3 and join to form a ring

Rnd 1: Ch. 1, 8 sc in loop/ring, join with a sl st to 1^st sc (8 stitches total)

Rnd 2: Ch. 2 (counts as a dc), 1 dc in 1^st sc. 2 dc in each sc around, join to top of ch.2 with a sl st (16 dc total)

Rnd 3: *Ch 2, skip 1 dc, sc in next dc* around, end with a sl st in the base of the first ch. 2

Rnd 4: (no chain here!) In first ch. 2 loop work *(1 sc, 1 hdc, 2 dc, 1 hdc, 1 sc), sl st in next sc* around

Tie off and block!

To make a smaller flower create Rnd 2 as follows:

Rnd 2: Ch. 2 (counts as a hdc), 1 hdc in 1^st sc. 2 hdc in each sc around, join to top of ch.2 with a sl st (16 hdc total)

Or for an even smaller flower

Rnd 2: Ch. 1 (counts as a sc), 1 sc in 1^st sc. 2 sc in each sc around, join to top of ch.1 with a sl st (16 sc total)
