Crochet Three Sizes Flower Pattern

In this tutorial, you will learn how to crochet three sizes of flowers: a small, a medium, and a large flower. Each flower is made starting from a magic ring and uses chain stitches, single crochet, and high stitches to form petals. The flowers are shaped by working into the magic ring and pulling threads tight for neatness. The pattern uses a 6 mm crochet hook and malleable wire to create the structure and durability necessary for the flowers to hold their form.

Pattern Highlights

• Three flower sizes: Small, medium, and large variations
• Foundation: Magic ring base for each flower
• Stitch Techniques: Chain stitches, single crochet (low stitch), and double crochet (high stitch) to form petals
• Wire integration: Use of malleable wire inside the stitches for firmness and shaping
• Petal count: 5 petals per flower across all sizes
• Adjustable size: By modifying the height of stitches and number of stitches per petal
• Finishing: Pulling threads tightly to close the ring and hide wires
• Optional embellishments: Beads or pearls can be applied during finishing
• Versatility: Flowers can be used as accessories, appliqués, or decorations

Notes

• The wire used should be malleable enough to bend easily but stable enough to hold the flower shape.
• All flowers begin with a magic ring technique to ensure a tight base with no gaps.
• Chain stitches form the loops for petals and rising turns, while single crochet stitches provide the base foundation for each petal.
• The larger flower employs double crochet stitches for taller, more pronounced petals, whereas the small and medium flowers use shorter stitches.
• Maintain consistent tension across all stitches for an even and aesthetic finish.
• Threads should be pulled tight when closing the magic ring for smooth edges and avoid gaps.
• Wire ends should be securely tucked or knotted to prevent unraveling or poking through fabric.
• The flowers can be finished with additional accessories or used standalone for varied projects.

Skill Level

• Suitable for intermediate crocheters familiar with the magic ring, chain stitches, single crochet, and double crochet.
• Experience in handling wire within crochet is helpful but not mandatory.
• Maintaining consistent tension and neat finishing is important.

Materials

• Malleable wire suitable for craft work (gauge not specified but flexible)
• Yarn or thread of preferred type (fabric knit with elastane or similar recommended)
• 6 mm crochet hook
• Scissors
• Optional beads, pearls, or embellishments for finishing touches

Measurements / Sizing

• Small flower: Compact with shorter loop sizes; approximate diameter 3-4 cm (depending on tension and yarn)
• Medium flower: Slightly larger petals and loops, approximately 5-6 cm diameter
• Large flower: Tall petals using double crochet stitches, approximately 7-8 cm diameter
• Measurements may vary depending on yarn, wire, and crochet tension

Gauge and Stitch Pattern

• Gauge is flexible; consistent tension is more important for even shapes
• Stitches used include chain stitches (ch), single crochet (sc – referred to as “low stitch”), and double crochet (dc – referred to as “high stitch”)
• Working into the magic ring allows for a closed, tight center
• Petals are formed by combination of chains followed by a stitch (single or double crochet) in the magic ring

The Crochet Pattern

Small Flower

Step 1: Create the Foundation

• Using 6 mm needle and malleable wire, form a magic ring.
• Make a small turning loop and create an “X” by pulling the yarn tail through the ring as a marker for the joining point.
• Chain 3 stitches to start the first petal loop.
  Save

Step 2: Form Petals

• Insert wire back into the ring for structure.
• Make a single crochet (low stitch) into the magic ring to secure and stabilize the foundation.
• Chain 3 stitches for petal shaping, followed by one single crochet into the ring.
• Repeat chaining 3 stitches, followed by a single crochet into the ring several times to form a total of 5 petals around the ring.
• Make sure to gently adjust and avoid tugging the wire too tightly at this stage.
  Save

Step 3: Close and Finish

• Leave a yarn tail for pulling the ring tight and for finishing.
• Pull the tail to close the magic ring carefully, centering the petals and forming a rounded flower shape.
• Hide wire ends by tucking or tying a small knot behind the petals or inside the flower base.
• Your small flower is ready for use or as a base for further finishing such as adding a keychain loop.
  Save

Medium Flower

Step 1: Create Magic Ring and Start

• Using the same 6 mm hook and wire, create a magic ring.
• Chain 3 stitches to begin, then secure the ring with a slip or single crochet stitch if desired (not explicitly shown but implied).

Step 2: Petal Formation

• Make a high point (double crochet) into the magic ring for petal height.
• Chain one or two stitches as an increment step between petals.
• Create a loop by chaining 3 stitches followed by a single crochet into the ring to complete the first petal.
• Repeat this process three to five times, depending on space and patter preference, creating petals of consistent height and width using chains and high stitches.
• The petals will form by chaining three, making a loop, then placing a single crochet or double crochet stitch inside the ring.

Step 3: Closing and Tightening

• Finish the round by chaining three stitches and slipping into the magic ring with a low stitch.
• Pull gently to close the ring, shaping the petals evenly.
• Hide the wire ends and any yarn tails inside the flower base.

Large Flower

Step 1: Foundation and Starting

• Create a magic ring with wire and yarn.
• Chain 3 stitches as the turning chains.
• Instead of one high point per petal, place two double crochets (high stitches) into the magic ring for taller and fuller petals.

Step 2: Petal Formation

• Chain three stitches to begin each petal’s arch.
• Insert two double crochets into the magic ring for each petal.
• Finish each petal with the same sequence: two double crochets, then a chain 3 loop, secured by a slip or single crochet stitch into the magic ring.
• Continue until creating five petals in total.

Step 3: Finalize Round

• End the round by chaining two stitches instead of three for a cleaner finish.
• Slip stitch into the magic ring to complete.
• Gently pull the magic ring yarn tail to close the base securely and form a full flower shape.
