Pattern
*Ch5. 4tr in the first ch. Ch4 and slip stitch into the same ch. This creates the first petal. Repeat from * four more times to create 5 petals. Be sure to stitch into each ch and not into the center of flower as it is being created. (This pattern can also be transformed into a bow- two petals with yarn wrapped around center. Or a 3-4 leafed clover- just make 3-4 petals and add a stem.)
It will get a little tricky holding it all together for the first couple times you make this flower but I promise you it will all come together nicely.
From front to back insert hook into loop of first petal and slip stitch, continue to slip stitch all the way around through each petal and finish by slip stitching into first slip stitch in center.
Pull up on loop and pull out hook leaving loop. Insert hook from back to front through hole in center, pull loop through and secure between set of petals with a slip stitch.
Chain 6 and slip stitch between next set of petals, repeat all the way around back of flower. (5 chain loops)
Into the first loop- *slip stitch, chain 4, 5 treble crochet, chain 4, slip stitch- Repeat from * 4 more times to create 5 petals. Slip stitch into the base of 1st petal to complete round.
Secure loop between set of petals with slip stitch and create a chain 6 loop behind each petal.
Into the first loop- *slip stitch, chain 4, 6 treble crochet, chain 4, slip stitch- Repeat from * 4 more times to create 5 petals. Slip stitch into the base of 1st petal to complete round.
Fasten off and weave in ends.
