Crochet Framed Flower

If they aren’t already, crochet flowers and granny squares should definitely be on your “to craft” list — they’re simple, and fun to work. So why not combine the two and make flower granny squares? I have named this pattern as Framed Flower

You can use a flower granny square individually or as part of a set for everything from decorative bunting to gorgeous afghans, garments and more.

This pretty flower is worked in two color. It is crocheted in the round starting in the center and working outward from there. This is an easy crochet project that works up quickly.

Supply List:

• Yarn or Crochet Thread: You can use just about any size fiber to make this project. We have used Anchor Size 10…. Yellow (A), Multi shade Blue (B) and Green (C)
• Crochet Hook Size: To crochet the flower, we used a size I.25mm crochet hook.
• Tapestry needle for weaving in ends
