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.

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.
