Cherry Blossom - an Easy 3D Flower Crochet Pattern
Hi, today, I'd like to share with you my Cherry Blossom crochet pattern.
I've designed it for my Cherry Blossom knit shawl, which I'm currently working on :)
Here's my symbol crochet chart for the flower:
You can use medium/aran weight yarn with a 5.5mm crochet hook for large flowers, which you can incorporate in accessories, such as shawls, scarves, bags, hair pins, barrettes, etc, or crochet thread #10 or even 30 with a corresponding crochet hook (1.75/1.50 mm) for tiny delicate flowers that you can make into earrings, rings, bracelets, or necklaces. Try other yarn-hook combinations too!
You are welcome to also check out my video. It's pretty short - but it clearly shows how to work all of the stitches and the one-chain-picots at the top of the extended double crochet stitches. It also displays written instructions for the pattern. Note: if you have any little ones napping in the room - be sure to turn off the volume, the video has a soundtrack in the background:

Lastly, here's the written crochet pattern for Cherry Blossom 1:
Foundation: sl lp.
Rnd1: ch1, 5 sc in sl lp; sl st in 1st sc to join.
Rnd2: ch3, dc, edc, (ch1, sl st in left-side-front-loop at top of edc, right below top loop of edc - at base of ch1 just made (see video demonstration above) to form a ch-1-picot (ch1p); edc, ch1p, dc, ch3, sl st in same sc as join. 1st petal made.
(Sl st in next sc, ch3, dc, edc, ch1p, edc, ch1p, dc, ch3, sl st in same sc) 4 times. Sl st in 1st sl st to join; or: sl st in back loop of 1st sl st and/or back of dc base to join. Fasten off, weave in ends.
If you're using two different colors - A and B, join color B after you slip stitch at end of round 1 (see symbol chart), i.e. begin Rnd2 by chaining 3 in color B.
Happy Crocheting!
