CROCHET FLOWER THAT YOU CAN DO IN 7 MINUTES

Absolutely! Here’s a step-by-step crochet pattern to recreate the flower in your image with realistic shaping and neat finishes. The design features a layered flower with a red center, pink petals, white loop petals, and green leaves.

🌸 Detailed Crochet Flower Pattern

🧶 Materials:

• Yarn: Red, pink, white, green (cotton or acrylic, light/medium weight)
• Hook: 2.5mm–3.5mm (adjust to your yarn size)
• Tapestry needle
• Scissors

🔴 Step 1: Flower Center (Red)

1. Make a magic ring.
2. Chain 1 (does not count as a stitch).
3. Work 6 single crochets (sc) into the magic ring.
4. Pull the ring tight and slip stitch (sl st) to the first sc to close.
5. Fasten off and cut the yarn. Weave the tail or leave it for sewing.

🌸 Step 2: First Layer of Petals (Pink)

1. Join pink yarn in any sc from the center.
2. [Ch 2, work 2 double crochets (dc) into the same stitch, ch 2, sl st in the next sc] – repeat this in each of the 6 center stitches.
3. You should end up with 6 pink petals, each made of:
   ch 2, 2 dc, ch 2, sl st
4. Sl st to the base of the first petal to finish the round.
5. Fasten off pink yarn.

⚪ Step 3: Second Layer of Petals (White Loops)

This layer is worked behind the pink petals.

1. Turn the flower over or insert your hook into the back loops (or under the petal base if no back loops are visible).
2. Join white yarn behind any petal.
3. [Ch 10, sl st into the next space behind the next petal] – repeat for each petal.
4. You’ll have 6 large white loops forming the outer petal layer.
5. Sl st to the base of the first loop to finish and fasten off.

🍃 Step 4: Leaves (Green) – Make 3

Each leaf is worked separately.

1. With green yarn, ch 9.
2. In the 2nd ch from hook:
   • 1 sc
   • 1 hdc
   • 1 dc
   • 1 treble (tr)
   • 1 dc
   • 1 hdc
   • 1 sc
   • sl st in the last chain
3. Turn your work and repeat the same stitches on the other side of the chain.
4. Sl st to the beginning to close the leaf.
5. Fasten off, leave a long tail for sewing.

🟢 Repeat 2 more times to make 3 leaves.

🧵 Step 5: Assembly

1. Arrange the leaves at the back of the flower. Sew them in place using the green yarn tails.
2. If needed, gently block the flower and leaves to shape them.
3. Use the red yarn tail or sewing thread to add a button or bead to the center (optional).

✨ Tips:

• Use a smaller hook to keep your stitches tight and neat.
• Add starch spray if you want the petals and leaves to stay stiff.
• You can attach this flower to hair clips, bags, clothing, or gift wraps.
