Step-by-Step Tutorial

Making the Hanger Strap

  • Create a strap that will hold the lilies and wrap around the mirror.
  • Begin with a slipknot, chain the desired length, and cut the yarn, leaving extra to finish off the strap neatly.

Crocheting the Leaves

  • Start by chaining a base to create the leaf.
  • Work on the first half by using various crochet techniques (e.g., single crochet, double crochet).
  • Create a symmetrical second half of the leaf by repeating the pattern on the opposite side of the chain.
  • Finish by slip-stitching to secure the ends and cutting the yarn neatly.

Attaching the Leaves to the Strap

  • Use the tapestry needle to weave together the strap and leaves.
  • Attach securely to ensure the leaves are aligned and hold well.
  • This forms the base layer for the decorative piece.

Making the Lily Flower Petals

Step 1: Base of the Flower

  • Use a magic circle to form a small base for the lily petals.
  • Expand the base by adding rows of single crochet and increasing the number of stitches gradually.
  • Start shaping the base of the lily to prepare for the petals.

Step 2: Creating Petal Layers

  • Begin crocheting the individual petals by working into the loops from the base.
  • Use a combination of single and double crochet techniques to form the petals.

  • Repeat the pattern as needed to create five evenly spaced petals.
  • Finish off by tying off the yarn neatly and shaping the petals.

Adding the Puffball Center

  • Create a puffball for the center of the lily using yellow yarn.
  • Wrap the yarn multiple times to form loops and tie the loops together to create the puff.
  • Cut the loops to give texture to the puffball and attach it to the center of the lily.

Assembling the Lily

  • Attach the puffball to the crocheted petals using the tapestry needle and yarn.
  • Secure everything with knots and trim excess yarn for a clean finish.
  • Position the lily appropriately for decorative purposes.

Crocheting Mini Puff Decorations

  • Create mini puff decorations for extra detail by combining loops and chains.
  • Attach these small decorative pieces to enhance the overall look.
