Crochet flower patterns

"Easy crochet instructions"



Crochet flower patterns can be created with granny squares. This square I call the “Sunflower”. You can make up 120 of these squares for a scarf.

Elaborate versions of granny squares can also leave you with designs looking more like luxury bouquets rather than a simple sunflower, so don't be afraid to mix it up.

Beginner crochet flowers

Put the squares together 6 across and 20 rows long. You should have a nice scarf about 18 inches by 60 inches. The size does not have to be exact for a scarf so this is a great beginners project. This would also be pretty if you boardered each square with white or black and made enough squares for an afghan.

I like making granny squares but I get bored and dislike the job of stitching them together. So I admit I quit making afghans out of them awhile back.

Easy crochet instructions

Here are the instructions for the sunflower granny square.
