Day 10 - Irish crochet flower motif


Twelve petal crochet flower motif.

Hello everyone, who has joined me to create some more crochet flowers.
I use online diagrams to make most of the crochet flower patterns. Some people cant read diagrams, so this way, it makes it easier for them to make flower or crochet motif they want. My aim is to make at least one crochet flower pattern per day. I want to see how far I can get, before I ran out of all the flower patterns. However recently I had internet issues, will be back online properly at the beginning of may, and I will posts all the missing flower patterns in one go.

Some crochet flower patterns will be used without any other online patterns, but could be similar or adjusted to the other or same flower or motif patterns.

This pattern has been followed the diagram.
Perfect for those Irish crochet project.

Materials used:
Hook 1.75m
Scissors,
Patons  100% 4 ply cotton yarn

Stitches used:
Ch – chain
Sc – single crochet
Dc – double crochet
Tr – treble crochet
Sl st – slip stitch



Rnd 1: Ch 12, sl st



Rnd 2: Ch 1, 23 sc in the ring, sl st (24 sts)



Rnd 3: Ch 4 , tr in net st and so all around sl st. ( 24 Sts)



Rnd 4: Ch 1, sc in between the chain and tr st, sc in next st which is tr, sc in between the st and so all around, sl st( 48st)








Rnd 5: Ch 1, 8 dc in 2nd st, sc in 2nd st,




8dc in 2nd st and so on until you have 12 petals, sl st, fasten off.




Why not use more colours to make that motif stand out.




Experiment with many different ways.



This is a beautiful motif, perfect for making a lovely dress, if its in cotton, or maybe gorgeous blanket, if using double knit yarn .
Enjoy.
Dace.
