Here is the Pattern for the Crochet flowers shown in my layout below.
This is a pattern that come from my Granmar, so its an oldie, but a goody I'm sure!
I am not a knitter at all and I cannot really crochet either so that gives you an idea of just how simple these are to make!
1st round : 1ch, work 15dc into that 1ch. Ss to first ch.
2nd round: 3 ch . *miss 1dc, 1tr into next dc, 1ch, rep from * 6 more times join with a Ss into 2nd of 3ch.
3rd round: 1ch into ch space work 1tr, 1dtr, 1tr, 1dc to form a petal, *into next chain space work 1dc, 1tr, 1dtr,1tr, 1dc,repeat from* until 8 petals have been worked.
(I do not manage to get 8 petals using embroidery or crochet cotton, usually I get around 6 petals) Join to the first petal with a Ss.
Abbreviations:
ch = chain
dc = Double chain
Ss = Slip stitch
tr = treble
dtr = double treble
