How To Crochet a Simple Flower - Absolute Beginners
There are two main terminologies used in crochet - UK and US. I teach in US terminology because I find it simpler for beginners to understand but in the lessons I will also tell you what the stitches and techniques are called in UK terminology so that you will be able to understand crochet patterns provided in either terminology.
In lesson 6, I show you how to work the treble crochet stitch as it is known in US terminology. In UK terminology this is known as the double treble crochet, so check your pattern before starting. This is quite a big stitch, but gives you an idea of how even bigger stitches work, just keep pulling through 2! It's as simple as that.

I have experimented with different types of yarn. I had this beautiful 100% Cotton yarn 4ply / fingering (pictured above), and because I love those colours, I really wanted to crochet some flowers out of this yarn.
After you finish your last petal: Ch 1 to secure the last stitch, cut the yarn and fasten off. If you are using this crochet flower to stitch on a garment then you can leave a longer tail of yarn you can use for sewing.
You can leave a longer tail and stitch those little crochet flowers onto beanies, scarves, hats, blankets, throws. You can make a brooch or stitch a little flower on a headband, hair tie/hair accessory. Or make a crochet wall art. There are many different ways to incorporate them into your crochet or any type of projects! 041b061a72
