Very easy crochet daisy motif making

 

Creating a very easy crochet daisy motif is a delightful project. Follow these step-by-step instructions to make your own:

Materials you'll need:

• Crochet hook (appropriate size for your yarn)
• Worsted weight yarn in your desired color(s) for the petals (usually white or yellow) and the center (usually yellow)
• Scissors
• Yarn needle

Instructions:

1. Start with the center of the daisy:
• Make a magic ring or chain 4 and join with a slip stitch to form a ring.
2. Round
   
• Chain 2 (counts as the first double crochet).


• Work 12 double crochets into the magic ring. This creates a total of 13 stitches, including the beginning chain-2.
• Slip stitch into the top of the beginning chain-2 to join the round.


3. Round
• Chain 1 (does not count as a stitch).
• Work 1 single crochet in the same stitch as the chain-1.
• Chain 3, skip the next stitch, work 1 single crochet in the next stitch.
• Repeat the * pattern around, creating a total of 6 chain-3 loops.
• Slip stitch into the first single crochet to join the round.


4. Petals of the daisy:
• Switch to the petal color yarn.
• In each chain-3 loop from the previous round, work the following stitches:
• Petal
  1: Chain 3, work 4 double crochets into the same chain-3 loop, chain 3, slip stitch.


• Petal
  2: In the next chain-3 loop, work the same pattern as Petal 1.


• Repeat
  Petal 1 and Petal 2 in each chain-3 loop around, creating 6 petals in total.
5. Fasten off and cut the yarn, leaving a long tail.


6. Optional:
   Add a center to the daisy:
• Switch back to the center color yarn (usually yellow).
• Make a magic ring or chain 4 and join with a slip stitch to form a ring.
• Work 6 single crochets into the magic ring. This creates a small circle for the center of the daisy.
• Fasten off and cut the yarn, leaving a long tail.
7. Assembly:
• Place the center of the daisy (if made) onto the center of the petals.
• Use a yarn needle and the long tails to sew the center in place, securing it to the petals.
8. Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle.

Repeat these steps to create multiple crochet daisy motifs. You can use these motifs to embellish various projects such as blankets, pillows, clothing, or even make a string of daisies for decorative purposes.

Feel free to experiment with different yarn weights, colors, and sizes to create a variety of beautiful crochet daisy motifs. Enjoy the process and have fun creating your own easy crochet daisies!
