3+ Easy Crochet Flower Tutorials for Beginners

Fast and Easy Crochet Flower

1. Chain 4 to start.

   • 

2. Slip stitch into the first stitch of the chain. This creates a small loop (shown in image 3 below).

   • 
   • 
   • 

3. For the first round, do 2 single crochets in the next chain.
    

   • 

4. Chain 1.
   Do a single crochet in the next stitch.
   
   Tip: As you go, crochet over the tail so that you won't have to weave it in at the end.

   • 

5. For the second round, slip stitch into the same stitch you just did.

   • 

6. Chain 1.
   Do 2 double crochet into the next stitch.

   • 

7. Chain 1.
   Slip stitch in the same stitch. This creates the first petal.

   • 

8. Repeat the above process to make each of the five remaining petals.

   • 

9. To finish, cut the yarn to create a tail. Pull your yarn through, and then move to the back of the flower to weave in ends.
   
   Tip: If you leave your last tail long enough, you will have a piece of yarn to use for attaching the flower onto other items, such as garland, clothing, or other crochet projects.

How to Crochet a Flower with Two Colors

1. Chain 4.
   Do a slip stitch to join to the first stitch.

   • 

2. Make a ring. In that ring, you will start working double crochets.
   Chain 3 for your first double crochet.

   • 

3. Make 13 double crochets in the ring, which will form a larger crocheted ring.

   • 

4. To finish the round, do a slip stitch in the turning chain you worked at the beginning.

   • 
   • 

5. Cut your yarn and pull the tail through. Then weave in your ends.

   • 

6. Find any double crochet on your ring.
   Slip stitch with the second color.
   
   Tip: Leave yourself a tail of the second color for the end.

   • 

7. Chain 4.

   • 

8. Skip a double crochet.
   Single crochet into the top of the next double crochet.
   
   Repeat this all the way around your original ring. You will see how quickly you form loops around.

   • 
   • 
   • 

9. End with a chain 4 and then a single crochet to finish your row (loops).

   • 
   • 

10. Chain 2 in the first space.

    • 

11. Then in the first space, make a half double crochet. (Half double crochet = yarn over, pull up a loop, and yarn over and pull all three.)

    • 

12. Do a double crochet.
    Do a triple crochet.
    
    Therefore, your pattern is a half double crochet, double crochet, then triple crochet.

    • 

13. Go the other way. Do a double crochet.
    Do a half double crochet. This creates a petal.

    • 

14. Do a slip stitch at the top of the single crochet that is at the end of the loop.

    • 

15. Repeat what you did on the last petal on the next: Half double crochet, double crochet, triple crochet. Then down the other side of the petal with double crochet and then half double crochet.
    
    Join into the single crochet with a slip stitch.

    • 

16. Repeat for the remaining petals. (Only five stitches per petal.)

    • 

17. To finish, join a slip stitch to join in between the two petals.

    • 
    • 

18. Cut your yarn and pull through the tail.

    • 

19. Weave in your ends and the crochet flower is complete!
