Making Your Crochet Daisy Flowers Your Own

You can crochet this crochet daisy pattern in the classic combination of yellow and white, or have fun experimenting with pretty floral shades. Soft pinks, bright pinks, and other cheerful colors can give your flowers a completely different look.

There are so many lovely daisy type flowers that you can find in nature, and they can be a great source of color inspiration. Gerbera daisies and marguerite daisies are two of my favorites. And if you love glorious shades of pink, cosmos flowers are a beautiful choice to try!

Best Yarn for the Daisy Crochet Pattern

Cotton yarn is ideal for crochet flowers, thanks to its durability and great stitch definition. It also creates a stiffer fabric that will help the flowers hold their shape. I do recommend you lightly block your daisies to give them a smooth finish.

You can use any yarn you have at hand for the daisy flowers. Make sure you match your hook to the yarn weight.

  • Fingering or sportsweight yarn, use a 3 mm or a 3.5 mm crochet hook
  • Dk weight yarn, use a 4 mm crochet hook
  • Worsted weight yarn, use a 4.5 mm hook

Materials

  • Hobbii –  Rainbow Cotton 8/6 Sport – 100% cotton/115yds/105m/50g
  • Colors – cream (002), yellow (055), old rose (046), rose (044), petunia pink (087) 
  • 3.5 mm crochet hook
  • Yarn needle
