Cute Crochet Flowers

I just love flowers and I’m thinking of making something out of these crochet flowers that I just designed. I just couldn’t figure out what to do with these for now. I’ve got a few ideas  in mind  and just can’t decide what to do with this. However this can be used as appliques. I think they would look lovely as embellishments on your bag, blouses, dresses, etc. I would really love to see how yours turned out. You can try experimenting on the color. If you want to change colors just like the orange one you can change yarn at round 2. 

Feel free to leave a message below if you made these flowers. I would be very glad if you do so:) Thanks a lot…

Here’s the Pattern:

Supplies Needed:

Size 10 Mercerized Cotton Crochet Thread
1.3 mm crochet hook
yarn cutter

Finished Item Dimensions: 

1.30 x 1.30 inches
 
 
 
Stitches Used:
 
SC – single crochet
DC – double crochet
TR – treble crochet
DTR – double treble crochet
 
 
 
Flower Pattern:
 
 

Round 1: Magic Ring, Chain 1, make 12 SC in Chain, slip stitch to 1st SC

 
Round 2: (SC, Chain 5, SC in next SC)* repeat 5 times around, slip stitch 
 
Round 3: Continue to work on the Chain 5 rings made, in each rings make (SC, DC, TR, DTR, TR, DC, SC)* repeat 5 times around, slip stitch

 

As simple as that, you’ve got a pretty and cute flower applique ready. Feel free to share this pattern with your friends. You can sell the finished item from my patterns but not the pattern itself. Credit me as the Designer and provide a link back to my site.

Pretty Crocodile Stitch Purse

 

Hi, I’m back for another free crochet pattern as promised. I would like to share this adorable crocodile stitch purse bag with you. I made a black one for our convention but when I took pictures for the tutorial the stitches were barely visible. I decided to make another one in pink and white. I was really happy with the outcome. It turned out great. It’s so adorable and much prettier than my first one.  I made a photo tutorial for this pattern and I hope you find it easier to follow.
