Spring flower crochet pattern – instructions
This flower is made in two simple layers: a base and a petal round. You can leave it as a flat flower or create additional layers for more dimension.
🌼 Round 1: the foundation circle
Start with a magic ring or ch 4 and sl st to form a ring.
-
Ch 1, then work 6 sc into the ring.
-
Join with a sl st to the first sc.
-
(6 sts)
This forms the center of your flower.
🌼 Round 2: base for petals
-
Ch 1.
-
In the same stitch: (sc, ch 3)
-
Repeat (sc, ch 3) in each stitch around.
-
You’ll now have 6 loops (petal bases).
-
Sl st to first sc to close round.
These ch-3 loops will serve as the spaces to crochet your petals into.
🌼 Round 3: petal round
-
In the first ch-3 loop, work: (sc, hdc, dc, hdc, sc).
-
Repeat this petal sequence in each ch-3 loop around.
-
You should now have 6 petals.
-
Sl st to the first sc to finish.
Fasten off and weave in your ends.
Voilà! You now have a dainty spring crochet flower — cheerful, soft, and ready for any creative use.
Optional: add a second layer for fullness
Want a fuller flower with two layers of petals?
After Round 2, instead of working your petals into the front loops, you can:
-
Work into the back loops of Round 1.
-
Create new petal loops (ch-4 or ch-5) behind the first layer.
-
Repeat the petal sequence in the new loops, maybe using dc-tr-dc combinations for a larger second row.
This gives the flower a 3D effect, perfect for brooches, hats, or hair accessories.
