Detailed Crochet Puff Flowers Pattern
Materials
- 2.5 mm crochet hook
- Two different colors of yarn (you can choose any color you like)
Pattern
Step 1: Create a Magic Circle
- Make a magic circle. If you’re unfamiliar with making a magic circle, refer to previous videos or tutorials.
- Twist the yarn and adjust it as needed to make it easier to create your foundation.
Step 2: Foundation Round
- Work 12 single crochets (sc) into the magic circle.
- Tighten the circle if you want the center hole to be smaller.
Step 3: Change Color
- Slip stitch (sl st) into the first single crochet to join the round.
- Insert your hook into the first stitch and pull through the second color yarn to change colors.
Step 4: Row 1 – Cluster Stitch Petals
- Start each petal with a chain three (ch 3).
- Yarn over and pull up a loop to the height of your chain three.
- Yarn over, pull through two loops (this is an extended double crochet).
- Repeat the extended double crochet two more times in the same stitch.
- You should now have seven loops on your hook.
- Yarn over and pull through all seven loops.
- Chain one (ch 1), then chain three (ch 3).
- Slip stitch (sl st) into the same stitch to form the first petal.
Step 5: Continue Making Petals
- Repeat the following for each subsequent petal:
- Chain three (ch 3).
- Insert extended double crochet three times in the next stitch (total of six extended double crochets, over two stitches).
- You should have seven loops on your hook.
- Yarn over and pull through all seven loops.
- Chain one (ch 1), then chain three (ch 3).
- Slip stitch (sl st) to the same stitch.
- Continue this pattern until you’ve created petals all the way around the flower.
Step 6: Finishing
- Once the last petal is done, make sure you slip stitch twice to secure the yarn.
- Cut your yarn, pull through, and weave in the ends.
Additional Tips
- You can adjust the size of the hole in the center by how tightly you pull the magic circle.
- Use the flower as an applique or an embellishment for various projects.
- Optionally, add pearls or beads to the center for additional decoration.
