Crochet Pattern: 5-Petal Flower

5 Petals Flower main


I created the crochet pattern for the blue 5-petal flower that I attached on “The Dazzles” after some requests from readers. And that was weeks ago, I have a tough time writing the crochet pattern as it involved 2 layers on the petals, front and rear, and they then join-up by single crochet the outer row along the petal. I want to make sure that my instruction is clear for you all to understand. So…. in order to make it easier to understand, I photographed and showed some of the easy-to-get-confuse instructions in pictures :)

The yarn I am using is woven type acrylic fiber which has a little elasticity and will not fray, you can try other yarn to create a different style on it.

crochet1Get ready to crochet the petal.

crochet2Make 16 chains follow the pattern to crochet row 2 until you reach “flo” instruction.

crochet3flo – Front loop only.This is the single crochet of the front-loop-only of the center ring. I used the front loop for layer 1, and reserved the back-loop for the layer 2 of the petal.

crochet5This is 1 layer of 5 petals and I am ready to make the second layer by using another loop of the stitch.

crochet6This is the rear side of the 1st layer. See the loop that I reserved (yellow pointer), now I am going to use this loop to crochet the layer 2 of the petal.

crochet7Completed first petal that has 2 layers :) Continue to crochet the rest until you have all 5 petals for layer 2.

crochet8Time to join-up both layer with single crochet the outer row along the petal.

crochet9Stuff some small amount of poly-fill to make the flower a little filling to add dimension to it. Continue to crochet until you reach the end of the petal, move on to the next petal. Skip the stitch that crocheted on the center ring.

Now you have completed the bare 5-petal flower, you can decorate it with beads and rhinestones to glamorize it (like the blue one I have made).

Attach an elastic hairband and a brooch pin at the rear side of the flower by hot glue, and the flower is ready to charm your apparel.

Have fun making one today!!!!

  1. Great post with step-by-step instruction and photos! I am so impressed with your detailed free pattern but totally confused as a novice. Your 5-petal flowers are so beautiful!

    • You are absolutely right about the abbreviation of the crochet pattern, you must have at least the basic knowledge on how to crochet before you can do this pattern. Hope you can pick up this hobby soon :)

  2. Wow! This is so tedious! Even with the steps I am so confused! But, it is beautiful and the colours are so bright and brilliant! A great condiment for a handbag! :)

  14. Hi liked your flowers, only the description is not very clear how to knit! could I ask you to place the scheme, thanks!

  15. Wow, how beautiful! Just found your site as I’m surfing around. Love your work. I was wondering if you could share exactly which thread you used. I’d love to make these and want them to look just like yours. I’m biting at the bit to git it a try. :)

    You do beautiful work and thanks for sharing!

    Sincerely,
    Laina

    • Hi Laina, this is not the usual thread meant for crochet. I am not sure what is the name or brand of this thread either. I found it in the craft shop I used to go and bought a bunch of it in loose packing. Traditionally, some used it for embroidery/cross stitch on the bamboo mesh.

  16. OK, thanks. I’ll see what I can find. Does it need the elasticity?

    Thanks,
    Laina

  17. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful work. I tried out your beautiful 5-petal flower and I am so happy with it. I have posted it on my blog and linked to your website. Thanks again.

  18. Thks, actually it is red but I think it is the light effect as I took the pics at night.

  19. Please may you tell me the Brand or where I can buy that type of Yarn you used in this Tutorial… I have been looking for years here in the USA and have not seen it… I highly appreciate you help… Thank you in advance

    • Hi JenniferG, I think it is not common in USA and it doesn’t come with any branding on the packaging. I am afraid I really can’t give you any information more than the picture shown in the tutorial.

  20. Thank you for your intention to try to Help I appreciate it

  21. I found the picture of these crocheted flowers awhile back and loved it. I used the picture as my profile picture. I am just now coming across the FREE pattern for these, I cant wait to get started… thank you sooo much for sharing this with everyone!! :)

  22. I’d love to take a stab at this pattern, I have made stars before. What are the directions before getting started on the petals?
