Here is a clear, easy tutorial for making the puffy petal flower shown in your image.
(This flower uses loop/puff petals around a tightly stitched center.)
πΌ SUPER DETAILED CROCHET PUFFY PETAL FLOWER TUTORIAL
π§Ά Materials
- Green yarn (center)
- White yarn (petals)
- Crochet hook (size that matches your yarn)
- Scissors

πΏ ROUND 1 β Make the Small Green Disc
1. Make a magic ring
Wrap yarn around your fingers β insert hook β pull up a loop.
2. Chain 1
This does NOT count as a stitch.
3. Work 12 single crochets (sc) into the ring
Insert hook β yarn over β pull through β yarn over β pull through 2 loops.
4. Pull tight
Tighten the ring gently so the stitches close tightly.
5. Slip stitch to the first sc
This closes round 1.
β You now have a tight little green circle.

πΏ ROUND 2 β Make the Green Ring Larger
1. Chain 1
(Not a stitch)
2. In EACH stitch, work 2 sc
This increases the round:
- Stitch 1 β 2 sc
- Stitch 2 β 2 sc
- Stitch 3 β 2 sc
- β¦ continue β¦
At the end you have 24 stitches.
3. Slip stitch to close
β Now you have a flat green ring (just like the pictures).

π€ ROUND 3 β Big Puffy Petals (the white loops)
This is the important part.
Follow this carefully:
πΌ HOW TO MAKE ONE PUFFY PETAL LOOP
You will make one loop per stitch (24 total).
STEP 1: Attach white yarn
Pull a loop through any stitch on the green ring.
STEP 2: Insert hook into the next stitch
STEP 3: Wrap the yarn around your finger
This creates the long, puffy loop.
- Place yarn over your index finger
- Keep finger stretched to control loop size
- Loop length should be 2β3 cm (same height as the petals in the photo)
STEP 4: Hold the long loop with your finger
Your finger will keep the loop consistent in size.
STEP 5: Grab the yarn BEHIND your finger
This is important:
- The hook must catch the yarn behind the loop
- Pull that yarn through the stitch
Now you have:
- 1 long loop sitting on your finger
- 1 working loop on your hook
STEP 6: Complete a single crochet (sc)
Yarn over β pull through both loops on the hook.
This LOCKS the long loop in place.
β You made one white puffy petal!

πΌ Repeat the loop 23 more times
For each stitch around:
- Insert hook into stitch
- Wrap yarn on finger
- Catch yarn behind finger
- Pull through
- Make 1 sc to secure
Continue this until you have gone all the way around the circle.
π€ FINISHING
- Slip stitch to the first white sc
- Cut yarn
- Weave in all tails carefully
- Shape the petals evenly with your fingers
β Your flower will look exactly like the one in the photo.
