How To Crochet A Blossom

Learn how to assemble your own crochet blossom with this crochet tutorial by Heidi Gustad. Blossoms make great embellishments to any piece ranging from afghans to sweaters, you name it, and this big and beautiful blossom can be used all by itself as a broach. Additionally, since this pattern when laid out looks like four stacked crochet circles, the tail can be pulled through the center of the blossom, depending on how much you pull the string, you can change the shape of the blossom to be more round and prominent or more flat and demure. The design is totally up to you!
