How to Crochet Beautiful Lacy Flower for Spring Decor
Learn how to crochet a beautiful lacy flower for adding to your granny stitch blankets with this step-by-step tutorial in any two different colored yarns. The process involves creating a base with pink yarn, forming the first layer of petals, and then introducing white yarn to create additional petal layers. The tutorial also covers how to attach a bead to the center of the finished flower. Follow through with us for the complete tutorial!
I. Getting Started
-
Materials: The project uses two different colored yarns (pink and white are demonstrated) and a crochet hook.
-
Initial Setup: The process begins with pink yarn, making chains and joining them to form a circle, which serves as the base.
II. First Layer of Petals (Pink Yarn)
-
Petal Formation: Chains are made, followed by double crochet stitches within the initial circle.
-
Pattern Repetition: The video demonstrates creating multiple “patterns” by alternating chains and a specific double crochet technique that reduces multiple loops to one. This forms the base of the flower’s center.
III. Second Layer of Petals (White Yarn)
-
Color Introduction: White yarn is introduced and attached to the gaps created by the chains in the previous pink layer.
-
Petal Construction: Each petal is created by making chains, followed by several double crochet stitches in the same spot, and then finishing with more chains and a single crochet to complete one petal. This process is repeated for all petals in this layer.
IV. Preparing for the Third Layer
-
Back Loops: To prepare for the next layer, chains are made and attached to the back of the previous single crochet stitches, forming loops behind the petals. These loops will serve as the foundation for the final petal layer.
V. Third Layer of Petals
-
Final Petal Construction: This layer involves making a single crochet, followed by several double crochet stitches within each of the previously created five-chain loops, and then chains and a single crochet to complete each petal, creating a fuller look.
VI. Finishing Touches
-
-
Adding a Bead: A bead is attached to the center of the flower using the initial long thread left at the beginning, ensuring it is secured firmly. This adds a decorative element to the finished flower.
-
Completion: The video concludes by showcasing the completed flower, highlighting the final result of the crocheting process.
