In this tutorial I'm going to show you how to make really easy flower bouquet
you're going to need your selected yarn I'm using stylecraft special DK and I
shall leave the links in the description box below you will need a pair of
scissors and a crochet hook I'm using a five and a half millimeter but you can
play around with the different sizes of your hook to make bigger or smaller
flowers so first of all you want to create your slipknot and you can do this
whichever way you prefer insert your hook and you're going to start off by
chaining four you can use a magic circle if you want to but I prefer to just
chain at this point so one two three and four so you're going to take your hook
and insert it into the first chain and this is going to create your circle so
when you're working in your circle you're working into that very centre
section so what we're going to do first of all is yarn over and pull through
for you chain and this is going to act as a double crochet that is in UK terms
in the US this is known as single crochet now we are going to do a double
treble that's a UK term in the US this is known as treble so you want to wrap
the yarn around the hook twice and insert your hook into the center of the
circle grab the yarn and pull it through and you'll have four loops on the hook
grab the yarn and pull through two loops on the hook you'll have three loops grab
the yarn pull through two and you'll have two loops and pull the yarn through
the last two loops we're then going to do that three more times so you're going
to have four double trebles in total so wrap twice around the hook insert grab
the yarn pull through grab the yarn pull through two
grab the yarn pull through two and then yarn over and pull through two
so again wrap twice around the hook insert yarn over pull through yarn over
pull through two yarn over pull through two and yarn over pull through two and
we'll do that once more so yarn over twice insert yarn over pull through yarn
over pull through two yarn over pull through two and yarn over pull through
two we're then going to pull the petal downwards so you want to insert the hook
grab the yarn and pull it through and then grab the yarn and pull it through two
that is a UK double crochet and a US single crochet so at this point we're
going to repeat exactly the same thing we're going to chain one and then do
four of the double treble crochets in that very centre circle followed by a
double crochet and we're going to repeat that five times so we have five petals
in total so I want you to pause the video and repeat the instructions that I
showed you just here as you're working round you want to pull the petals
around so you have enough space for four petals do that and I shall meet you back
at the beginning to show you how to finish off your flower
okay so I've done my five petals I've done my four double trebles and now I'm
going to do my double crochet into the centre just to bring the side of that
petal down and then what I want to do is connect this this petal to this petal so
I'm just going to insert my hook and into the bottom of that very first
stitch and do a slip stitch so it doesn't really matter exactly where it
goes there we're just trying to connect them together then I'm going to chain
one grab my scissors and snip off and then pull out the yarn and then just
pull nice and tight on there now what I did when I was working my
petals I actually crocheted in that that other thread but what you would
want to do now is just grab your darning needle and sew that into your work and
then there you have your cute little and flowers you could actually put them
together maybe make a bigger one or a smaller one by using different size
hooks and then put them together like that or use them to put on a blanket or
a beanie anything you want really so if you liked this video make sure you give
