Earth is covered in flowers. They crop up everywhere, from the cracks in the sidewalk to the abandoned lot down the street. They bring joy wherever they appear. Here are a few ways to crochet flowers, just enough to get you started. Once you’re familiar with these principles, make up your own! Start with a circle and create petals using the techniques shown here. Play with color, with the number of petals, with their size. Make a daisy chain or a bunting, or sew the flowers onto a cloche or a head scarf. Scatter flowers around your home and give bouquets to friends.
