Crochet Flower Patterns

Super simple beginner friendly crocheted flower patterns.  I used craft wire inside all my flower to make them more realistic and able to stand up. A free video tutorial for each of these flowers is coming soon on my Youtube channel. Will update when video is available.

First is the daisy flower. I used 3 colors of Red Heart yarn for my daisies; yellow for the middle of the flower, white for the petals, and spring green for the stem and leaves. Find my daisy flower pattern here: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/daisy-flower-11

Next is the pansy flower. I used 4 colors of Red Heart yarn for my daisies; yellow for the middle of the flower, dark purple for the base of the petals, hot pink for the tops of the petals, magenta for the back petals, and spring green for the stem and leaves. You can use pretty much any color as long as you use a shade of yellow for the middle, a dark color, like black or violet for the base of the petals, and a shade of green for the leaves and stem. Find my pansy flower pattern here: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/pansy-flower-5

And finally an amigurumi fire flower inspired by the Mario games. I used 5 colors of Red Heart yarn for my fire flower; white for the face at the middle of the flower, yellow for the base of the petals, red for the tops of the petals, black for the eyes, and spring green for the stem and leaves.

I used my flowers to construct a potted plant of each. Tutorial for potted plant is also coming soon, will update as soon as the video is available.

Yoshi Amigurumi Doll Pattern and Free Video Tutorial

Amigurumi Yoshi doll inspired by the Mario games. I tried to make this doll as accurate to the way the character looks in the games as possible, and I think I did a pretty good job. You can find the pattern on Ravelry here: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/yoshi-amigurumi-7

Part 1 of the free video tutorial is at the bottom of this page. Next parts of the video coming soon!

I used Spring Green and White from Red Heart Super Saver for the classic Yoshi color, but of course you can be really creative with this pattern and make yours any color you like. I also made one in Bubblegum pink, and I’m working on one in Royal Blue. I used a size E hook and aran weight yarn, you might be able to use a smaller hook and a thinner yarn, like a light worsted weight and a size B hook, to make an even smaller, cuter doll.

I also used craft wire to make my doll pose-able. You can see from the pictures that this doll holds it’s poses very well. If you’re planning on making this doll for a baby or small child, don’t use any wire in your doll.

Crochet Unicorn Horn Pattern/Video Tutorial

How to crochet a unicorn horn! I made a costume version for myself, and a small doll-sized version for my unicorn amigurumi doll. Find the pony doll I used for my unicorn here: https://youtu.be/1g9OAY6187M

This is the pattern for the costume version. The doll version is just the tip of the costume version. For that one, start with a chain of 8 instead of 24, and then only do the steps highlighted in blue. Video tutorial is available on  my youtube channel, and will be at the bottom of this page.

Costume Unicorn Horn Written Pattern

1. Ch 24 to create foundation ch. (24 sts total)
2. Ch 3 for 1^st st, into 3^rd ch from hk, tc 1. Then, around foundation ch, tc 30 more. Pull just made sts to bottom of ch as far as possible, bunching sts. Continue making progressively shorter sts toward top of horn: htc 32, then pull sts to bottom of foundation ch, bunching sts; dc 32, then pull sts to bottom of ch; hdc 32, then pull sts to bottom of ch; sc 32, bunching sts at bottom of ch, until entire ch is covered by sts and a spiral is formed (160 sts total)
3. Add a tip to the horn: ch 4, sl st in 2^nd ch from hk and rem 2 chs. Sl st around post of last sc on foundation ch to end work, cut off long tail of yarn.
4. Once spiral is made, use craft wire to keep the horn standing up: twist crocheted spiral around wire, so that wire is threaded through middle of coil. Start at top of horn, to make sure end of wire matches up with tip of horn. To keep spiral in place on wire, pin tip of horn to loop at end of wire. Then begin to twist yarn around wire. Once the wire is threaded through spiral, tighten coil around wire by twisting coil more tightly. At the bottom of the spiral, twist wire into a circle that matches circumference of bottom of horn. Use tail end of yarn to fasten wire in place, and to stitch over any remaining visible wire.

You can also find the free video tutorial at the bottom of the page.

This is a bit of an intermediate to advanced level design. It's fully customizable, and you can find a bunch of hair tutorials for dolls on my channel, to customize your centaur doll even more.

For the doll above, I used “Buff” (Red Heart Super Saver) for the doll upper body, “Aran” (Red Heart Super Saver) for the horse body, “Charcoal” (Red Heart Super Saver) to make the hooves, and a combination of “Charcoal” and “Black” (Red Heart Super Saver) to make the tail and hair.

For the doll below, I used “Heather”(Loops & Threads) for the body, “Rust” (Vanna’s Choice) and “White” (Red Heart Super Saver) for the horse body, “Black” (Red Heart Super Saver) for the hooves and a combination of “Rust”, and “Toast” (Red Heart Soft) for the tail and hair. You can use any color to customize your doll.

You can find the free video tutorial, and other tutorials, on my youtube channel at https://youtube.com/c/faerierings

To make the doll upper body of the centaur, I used the technique in my realistic amigurumi doll tutorial, which you can see here:

This is a bit of an intermediate to advanced level design, I'd say. It's easy to customize the size,  shape or color of the horse to your preferences.

 Amigurumi generally uses very little yarn, and I used much less than a full skein. I used “Aran” from Red Heart Super Saver for the body, “Charcoal” to make the hooves, and a combination of “Charcoal” and “Black” to make the mane and tail.

Crochet Long Stem Rose Bouquet Video Tutorial and Pattern

The new tutorial is finally here! In which I show you how to crochet a rose with a long stem, just in time for Valentine's Day! In Part 1, I show you how to complete the petals. And in Part 2 I show you how to make the leaves and stem. If you want to purchase the written pattern, you can find it in my Ravelry store here. Buy it now! Find the free video tutorial at the bottom of the page.

You can use pretty much any yarn for this project, but bear in mind that the rose will be bigger using a thicker yarn, and smaller using a thinner yarn. I used “Cherry Red” and “Hunter Green from Red Heart Super Saver for the flower I made in the video tutorial, but you can use any color yarn you choose.

 I also used a size E hook but again, using a larger hook will result in a larger, lacier flower, while a smaller hook will create a smaller flower.

I made my roses about 24 inches long (4 inch long petals, 20 inch long stem), but if you prefer a shorter bouquet you can make the stems shorter.
