I love Large Colorful Crochet Flowers! And the centre of my Ragwort Square makes a beautiful crochet floral embellishment. You can use any scraps of yarn you have in your stash – the more colorful the better! The added texture of the popcorn stitches makes this Large Crochet Flower Pattern extra special. Read on for the easy to follow instructions.
These pretty Crochet Flowers work up fast, and are perfect for adding as embellishments to your projects. You can add a pin to the back of the flower to make a brooch for a special gift. One would be beautiful attached to a Summer Hat for a child! String a few flowers together for cheerful floral bunting…..these appliques are perfect for many projects including yarnbombing.

November 10, 2021 at 8:13 amI love this pattern! I just made one in a solid color just to see how the pattern plays out. I also struggled with row 5 until I took the time to read the whole step and try again. I had missed putting the sc in the ch sp at top of pedal.
I have an idea of what I want to do with this pattern. I amgoing to make several of these in the solid color I have and create a shaw for my mother-in-law!
