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.

Crochet Occasion flower motif dress for girls...

Hi everyone, not long ago I have finished crocheting this gorgeous dress:

crochet occasion dress for girls


 It made of about 50 small flower motifs in 2 colours.
 
crochet flower motifs




The skirt part of the dress I used very simple netting pattern,

back of the dress, netting





and at the bottom finished of with 2 layers of frilly crochet pattern

So what do you think? Isn't it beautiful?

back of the dress



It took me about 10 evenings to make this dress, and I enjoyed every minute of it...

It is my first dress for a little girl, apart from 3 dresses, that i made  for myself   last year :)

I used 100% cotton 200g in white and 100g in purple.
One white button and less then 2m of purple ribbon. I used crochet hook size 1.75 mm and I thought it would be nice to add little flower detail on the ribbon,just finishing it of at the moment and will add picture later. :)
So that's my dress for a special order, for a beautiful girl :)
