People often ask me is it easy to crochet flowers! I always answer yes! I love the simplicity of crocheting flowers, yet the effect is stunning and can add a little pizzazz to a headband, a crochet hat or in fact any of your crochet projects.
So I am going to show you step by step this easy layered crochet flower.
This is a nice flat sitting 3 layer crochet flower, I used double knit yarn and 4.00mm hook,
this was so I could get good clear photos for the crochet flower tutorial.
