Crocheting a flower is a fun way to let your creativity flow and produce something beautiful in just a few simple steps. Whether you’re a seasoned crochet enthusiast or a novice eager to learn a new skill, creating your own crocheted flower is always a fun project!
I love crocheting flowers because I can basically grab any scrap yarn I have in my stash, and it’s always enough to crochet a flower! There are so many uses for crocheted flowers – hanging them on my daughter’s backpack for extra cuteness, making hair clips, and more! Some of them are flat enough to make some cute flower coasters for spring and summer, too!
In this post, I’ve included a crochet flower pattern of my own, plus 15 more free & easy crochet flower patterns from other crocheters! This is such a fun list!
