Displaying DSCF1002.JPG

this isn't my design, but I've made slight changes here n there. This is for my grandson who is going to be 15 months, for him, as he can hear his parents say monkey & crocodile story with the hand puppets !

crochet big flowers



Big flower- I've used 2/3 colours, as then each row of petal can be seen clearly.

R1 - in magic circle, make 3 ch, then 11 dc, total 12 dc
R 2- join to top of the 3rd ch, sl st to next sc, ch 4, * skip 1 dc, dc in next dc, ch 1 *, rep till the end, joining to the top of the 3rd ch, at this point while joining, you may change to different colour, but don't cut the thread, as you can use it for the last row to highlight the flower.
R 3- *in each ch 1 sp., make 2 ch, 3 dc, 2 ch, sl st., then sl st to the next ch space* & rep *- * till the end, joining with sl st to the 1st st.
R 4- make ch 5, join from the back of the petal to the sl st of the next petal, continue in this way, join with sl st in the 1st space.
R 5- in each ch 5, make 1 sc, 2 hdc, 3 dc, 2 hdc, 1 sc, join to 1st sc, change to 1st colour or new colour, then either make sl st. in each st., or make sc in each. As in 1 flower I made sl st in last row, in another made sc, which I felt looked better.

for leaves & stem see my previous post.

Small corchet flowers, leaves, stem



To crochet small flowers

in a magic circle, make 10/ 12 single crochet (10- if you want 5 petals, 12- for 6 petals)
R 1- I've used different colour, while joining to last sc, change to the new colour, make sc in the same place, sl st in next st., make 4 chain, * skip 1 sc, make a dc in the next sc, make a ch *, rep from * till last, join to the 3rd st. of the 1st 4 ch.
 R 2- * sl st to ch space, make 2 ch, 3 dc, 2 ch & sl st in the same space, rep. till the end, so you'll get 5/ 6 petals,  join with sl st at end.

ps- those interested in having little more colour, instead of cutting the 1st colour thread, can use it to change colour while joining with sl st., then make either sl st, in each ch. or make a sc in each, join & fasten off.

Leaf- make either 7/ 11 ch depending on the length of the leaf
R 1- in 2nd ch from the hook, make sc, in next ch, make  1 hdc ( for short leaf), 2 hdc for longer leaf, 2 dc for shorter leaf, 3 dc for longer leaf, then 1/ 2 hdc, then sc, sl st, fasten off.

For stem-

for longer stem, I made 21 ch, then sc in 2nd ch from hook till the end, then 3 sc in last ch, then on the other side of the ch., sc till the end, last sl st , fasten off.

for smaller stem, I made with 16 ch., in the same way as above.
