What are the Best Crochet Stitches for Flowers?
You don’t need to know lots of complicated stitches to crochet pretty flowers!Most of the flowers included use only basic crochet stitches – single crochet stitch, half double and double crochet stitch.
By working these simple stitches in different ways, you can make all sorts of lovely flowers, from flat appliques to more textured, layered blooms. This makes these patterns a great choice for beginners, as well as a fun way for more experienced crocheters to make something colourful with just a little yarn.
Best Yarn for Crochet Flowers
The flowers in this collection call for different yarn weights, mainly DK or 4 ply/fingering weight, or even crochet thread. But you can use any yarn weight you wish to create different sizes of flowers – just use a matching hook.
My favourite yarn for making flowers is a cotton yarn as it washes well, keeps its shape and comes in a huge selection of bright colors. You will only need small amounts of yarn to make your flowers, making them a great scrap yarn crochet project.
Each flower crochet pattern will include details for the yarn used for the pattern and the crochet hook size that you require.
