Cute flower crochet pattern tutorial for Beginner

Cute Flower Pattern

Hello there and Happy New Year to all!!

I'm back with a simple flower pattern to start the new year.  This flower pattern is so quick and easy.  It looks great for baby hat, headband or even for small purses. You can crochet one up in no time! 

This pattern is suitable for beginners as it only use two  basic crochet stiches, a single crochet and double crochet stiches. 

Here is what you will need:

Yarns - Red for petals

            Yellow for center

            Green for leaves

Steel Hook - Size 3 or any size that suitable with the yarn that you use.

Scissors and yarn needle

Notes:

If you prefer your flower bigger in size you can use a chunky weight yarn with a bigger size hook.

Main pattern stiches and abbreviations: ch- chain; sc - single crochet; dc - double crochet; sl st - slip stitch

CENTER(Yellow yarn)

R1 - Ch 2, 5 sc in 2nd ch from hook. Join with sl st to first sc. Cut off yarn.

PETALS (Red yarn)

R2 - Attach red yarn to any sc, *ch2, 3dc, ch2, sl st in the same sc. sl st to the next sc**  Repeat from * to ** 5 times. You will have 5 petals. Cut off.

LEAVES (Green yarn)

Crochet Pin Cushion

The above crochet pin cushion was completed quite some time. 

Since I'm having problem with my computer I'm not able to post it up much earlier. 

I crochet using the yarn from my stash.

You can see in the picture that I have short of orange color...   

 

and this is how it looks from behind.

Here I share the pattern that I used. 

 It was from a Japanese pattern book.

The pattern is so simple and easy to follow.

Suitable for those who are at beginner level and wish to learn crochet.

Happy Crocheting!

Baby Booties : Free Pattern

I remember sometime ago, I've promised to share this pattern with you... my post  backdated to June 2010...wow that's really long!! Anyway better late than never...right.  Basically I thought I would just like to share the link to the similar pattern which I came across in the Internet...but I just couldn't find  it.  So what I did, I just write the pattern by myself by  referring to the booties that I've made for my niece.

Simple Baby Booties pattern

Materials:
Yarn
Steel Hook no. 5(Tulip)
ch 4, slst to make a circle
Rd 1 : ch 3, 9 dc into the circle (10 dc),
Rd 2 : ch 3, dc into same st, 2 dc into each st around (22 dc)
Rd 3 -6 : ch 3, 1 dc into each st around
Rd 4 : ch 3, dc into next 18 st, leaving 5 unworked. ch 3, turn and work 18 dc back and forth until the sole is as long as the baby’s foot (you have to measure the baby sole).
Seam up at the back together, and then work about 2 rounds of single crochet around the edge and decreasing at each of the corners

That’s it! You’re DONE!! You can make a complete pair in less than an hour. The best part is on how you want to decorate your baby booties. I attached here what I’ve did to my baby booties. For boys I decorate with blue pompom (using pompom basically quite universal, it can be for girls too…you can play with the color) and for my girl version I decorate with a flower.

 


Ok... that’s about it for today. If you have any questions on the pattern please leave them in the comment and I'll try to answer them in that post! :)

If you use any of my patterns, I would appreciate it if you could link to my blog. I also LOVE to see and share yours on my blog ... so let me know;)

Thanks for reading...and ENJOY your weekend…
