I love seasonal garlands. With Spring right around the corner I just had to create a new flowery garland. Hope you all enjoy this pattern!
Materials Needed:
Yarn: Worsted Weight, assorted colors

Good to know
- The number of flowers you make will depend on how long you would like your garland to be ... I made 8 flowers.
- After you have made your flowers, weave in ends and block to help shape them. A light press is helpful too.
Pattern:
Flower:
Begin with Magic Circle/Adjustable Ring using Yellow yarn.
Round 1: Chain 2 then crochet DC 11 times in ring, a total of 12 stitches. Pull the ring tight, then slip stitch into the top of chain 2. Tie off.
Round 2: Switch to color for petals.
Anchor the new color with a SC ...
Repeat around until you have 6 loops for petals. Chain 1 and Slip Stitch into the first SC made
DON'T TIE OFF CONTINUE WITH SAME COLOR.
Round 3: You will be making the petals by working out of each Chain 6 loop. Each flower petal will be the same as the first one. So, here we go!
*SC, HDC, HDC, DC, DC, DC, Chain 2, DC, DC, DC, HDC, HDC, SC*
Now repeat in each of the next 5 loops. Slip stitch in first SC, tie off, and weave in ends!
Viola! Pretty!
Using Green, chain 25, *Slip Stitch in the top of one of the Chain 2 of one of the petals, Chain 15* repeat** until you have attached your last flower and then chain 25, tie off and you are done! Hang and LOOOOVE!
