That’s a crochet flower granny square — often called a Sunburst or Daisy Granny Square. 🌸
Here’s how you can make one like in your image (pink center with cream border):
🧶 MATERIALS
- Yarn: 2 colors (pink for flower center, cream/white for outer part)
- Hook: 4.0 mm (or size recommended for your yarn)
- Other: Scissors, yarn needle
🌸 STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL
Round 1 — Flower Center
- Start: Make a magic ring (or chain 4 and join with slip stitch to form a ring).
- Chain 2 (counts as first double crochet).
- Work 15 double crochets (dc) into the ring.
→ You will have 16 dc total (counting the beginning ch-2 as one dc). - Pull the ring tight, then join with a slip stitch to the top of the first dc.
- Fasten off the pink yarn.
💡 Tip: This round forms a tight pink circle — the base for the petals.
Round 2 — Petal Layer
- Attach the pink yarn again (or continue if you didn’t fasten off).
- In the first stitch:
- Work (1 sc, ch 2, 2 tr, ch 2, 1 sc) — this forms one petal.
- Skip 1 stitch.
- Repeat the petal pattern (sc, ch 2, 2 tr, ch 2, sc) in every other stitch around.
→ You will make 8 petals total. - Join with slip stitch to the first sc.
- Fasten off pink yarn.
💡 Each petal sits on 2 dc from Round 1 and skips one between them.
Round 3 — First Cream Layer
- Attach the cream yarn into any ch-2 space between petals.
- (Ch 3, 2 dc, ch 2, 3 dc) in that same space → this is your first corner.
- In the next ch-2 space, make 3 dc (no chain).
- Continue alternating around:
- (3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc) in next space (corner)
- 3 dc in next space (side)
- When you have 4 corners, join with slip stitch to top of starting ch-3.
💡 Your square will begin to take shape now, but edges are still slightly rounded.
Round 4 — Build the Square Shape
- Slip stitch over to the next corner ch-2 space.
- Work (ch 3, 2 dc, ch 2, 3 dc) in that same corner space.
- In each side space between clusters, work 3 dc.
- In each corner space, work (3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc).
- Repeat this pattern all the way around.
- Join with a slip stitch to the top of starting ch-3.
- Fasten off and weave in all yarn ends.
💡 Now the piece should look like the photo — pink flower center with four cream clusters forming corners.
Optional Round 5 — Border (for clean edge)
- Join cream yarn in any stitch.
- Work 1 sc in each stitch around the square.
- In each corner, work (1 sc, ch 2, 1 sc).
- Join and fasten off.
💡 This creates a neat border and helps flatten the square.
Blocking
- Lightly wet or steam the square and pin it into a perfect square shape.
- Let it dry completely.
✅ Finished Size
Using medium-weight yarn and 4 mm hook → about 10–12 cm (4–4.5 in) square.
