Easy Crochet Flower Pattern
By Lauren on April 2, 2014
While I’m not exactly sure what type of flower this crochet flower pattern looks like, I know this… I love it. I love the fluffiness and the simplicity of this flower. It would look fantastic on bags, hats, and scarves, wouldn’t it? As I tend to do when I replica rolex gmt master mens 116718 ln 78208 rolex calibre 2836 2813 automatic black dial china need help (yes, even potty training advice), I went to my Facebook page to get suggestions. The most common response was carnation, but I also got dahlia, peony, and several others. Since most people said carnation, I decided to go with that.
This crocheted flower measures 2 3/4 inches in diameter, but you could easily modify it to make it larger if you wanted to. In fact, I have plans to make several different sizes to cluster together and attach to a crocheted bag for my little girl. If only I could find time to make that bag.

Lauren, this is just darling! I learned how to crochet last year and am totally addicted, especially if it's a small, fun project like this. Can't wait to try it out!<br /><br /><a href="http://clubnarwhal.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Amy | Club Narwhal</a> <br />
