IMPORTANT TIPS:

It is recommended to crochet tightly by using a smaller crochet hook. Try to work every part using the same stitch tension. Count your stitches. Use a stitch marker or a piece of yarn to mark beginning/ending of the round. Each round is worked in a continuous spiral. Do not join rounds with slip stitch or turn unless stated otherwise. Crochet through both loops unless stated otherwise. It is highly recommended that you read through the entire pattern before starting to crochet.

SPECIAL STITCHES Invisible Finish

After completing the last st, cut the yarn and pull on the loop to draw the tail. Using the tapestry needle, skip the next st, and insert the needle from front to back, under both loops. Go back to the last st, and insert the needle through the back loop of this st. Pull on the tail.

PETALS

Make 3 in peach and 3 in pink

Please work a little bit loosely while crocheting the petals/skirt. Crochet around the foundation chain. Work in rows. R1: Make foundation ch: 13ch, start from the second loop from the hook: 4hdc, 5dc, 2hdc, inc3 at the last chain. Then continue to work using the other side of the chains: 2hdc, 5dc, 4hdc (25), 1ch R2: turn, 4hdc, hdc inc, 6hdc, 3inc, 6hdc, hdc inc, 4hdc (30), 1ch R3: turn, 8hdc, hdc inc, 3hdc, [sc, inc]x3, 3hdc, hdc inc, 8hdc (35), 1ch R4: turn, 14sc, [inc, 2sc]x3, 12sc (38), 1ch R5: turn, 17sc, hdc inc3, 2sl st, hdc inc3, 17sc (42) Fasten off, leaving about 10 cm long tail.



Now we will work the skirt. Please remember to work a little bit loosely and use normal decrease instead of invisible decrease (only when working the petal skirt). Attach a new piece of pink/peach yarn onto the flat side of the pink petal.

Make 1ch, then work in rounds: R1: 12sc x 3 petals (36) For each color, join the petals with the yarn tail using the whip stitch technique in 4 stitches. Do this until all the petals in the same colors are joined as a circle. 1 2 3 4

Continue working the skirt by working through both pink and peach petals. R4 : [2sc, dec]x6 (18) Fasten off, leaving a yarn tail. Do an invisible finish. Count 3 st before the last st (4 st before the st made by the invisible finish), and mark it with a stitch marker. Hide and secure the tail by weaving in ends. The skirt will be joined together with the body later.

For peach petal, do not fasten off, we will continue to join both petals.

Mark the second FL after the first st of the R18 with a stitch marker.



BODY & STEM

The body is worked at the FL left of R19 (you worked R20 BLO). Attach the skin color yarn at marked st.

R20: Make 1ch, FLO [sc, inc]x6 (18) Change to green. R21-24 (4 rounds): 18sc (18) R25a: FLO [5ch, sl st to the next st]x18 (18) Fasten off and cut the yarn. The first back loop of R24 (you worked R25a FLO) will be used for joining the petal skirt with the body. first back loop of R24

Hold the skirt with the pink petal facing outside. Insert the body so the last round the of body and the skirt meet together. With a new piece of green yarn, insert the hook through the marked st of the skirt and then also the first back loop of R24 of the body, and make a loop.

Using the yarn needle, weave the yarn tail through the front loop of each remaining stitch and pull it tight to close. Hide the tail. Take another piece of green yarn. Hold the flower upside down. Attach the green yarn at the FL left of R25b (you worked R26 BLO).

Optional: you can use wire so the stem can be articulated. Cut a thin wire (diameter 0.5 mm) about 8 cm long, bend one of the tips, and wrap it with a little fiberfill and tape. Then insert the wire into the stem carefully until all the wire goes inside the stem.
