🌼 How to Make a Newest Crochet Flower Motif Using Green, White, and Yellow (2025 Style)
Crochet flower motifs are timeless, but in 2025, new design trends bring more dimension, texture, and natural colors to these classic patterns. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process of creating a layered 3D flower with a puff-stitch center, white soft petals, and leafy green borders.
🧶 Materials Needed:
- Yarn:
- Yellow (for flower center) – cotton or acrylic, DK or sport weight
- White (for petals) – soft, bright white
- Green (for leaves or outer petals) – olive, sage, or leaf green
- Crochet Hook: 3.5 mm or appropriate for yarn
- Scissors
- Tapestry needle
- Stitch marker (optional for keeping track of rounds)
📖 Stitches and Abbreviations (US Terms):
| Abbreviation | Stitch |
|---|---|
| ch | chain |
| sl st | slip stitch |
| sc | single crochet |
| hdc | half double crochet |
| dc | double crochet |
| tr | treble crochet |
| puff st | puff stitch (see below) |
| sk | skip |
| st | stitch |
Puff Stitch (puff st):
Yarn over, insert hook into stitch, pull up loop (3 loops on hook). Repeat 3 more times (total 9 loops). Yarn over, pull through all loops. Ch 1 to close.
🌼 Step-by-Step Instructions
🔸 Round 1: Yellow Center (Puff Texture)
- With yellow yarn, start with a magic ring.
- Ch 1 (does not count as a stitch).
- Make 6 puff stitches into the ring, separated by ch 1 spaces.
- (Puff st, ch 1) x6
- Pull the ring tight and sl st to the first puff st to join.
- Total: 6 puff stitches, 6 chain spaces.
👉 Tip: This gives the center a round, puffy appearance — a popular 2025 trend!
🔸 Round 2: White Petals (First Layer)
- Switch to white yarn. Join in any ch-1 space.
- (Ch 2, 3 dc, ch 2, sl st) all into one ch-1 space to form one petal.
- Repeat the same in each ch-1 space around.
- Total: 6 white petals.
Each petal: ch 2, 3 dc, ch 2, sl st — worked in one ch-1 space.
👉 Trend Alert: Shorter, rounded petals with soft yarn create a natural flower look.
🔸 Round 3: Petal Base for Second Layer
Now we’ll create a base for larger green petals behind the first layer.
- Flip your work slightly to access the back loops behind white petals.
- Sl st into a dc from Round 1 (base of puff st).
- (Ch 4, sl st into next space behind petal) repeat around.
This creates 6 ch-4 loops for large outer petals.
🔸 Round 4: Green Petals (Second Layer – Leaves or Outer Petals)
- Join green yarn in any ch-4 loop.
- (Sc, hdc, 4 dc, hdc, sc) in each ch-4 loop to make a larger petal.
- Repeat for all 6 loops.
You now have a second layer of larger, leafy petals framing the flower.
👉 Color Tip: Choose a muted or earthy green for a realistic botanical effect.
🔸 Optional Round 5: Leaf Extensions (For Motif or Joining)
If you want to use the flower motif in a blanket or granny square project:
- Ch 6 from behind a green petal, sl st between petals.
- In each ch-6 loop: (Sc, hdc, dc, dc, hdc, sc) — to create a pointed leaf.
Repeat to make the motif look like it’s blooming from leaves.
🌸 Final Touches
- Weave in ends with a tapestry needle.
- Block the motif lightly if the petals curl — pin to foam and mist with water, let dry flat.
- Add a button, bead, or embroidery to the center for extra detail.
🧩 Uses for This Motif:
- Blankets – Join several motifs using green leaves as connectors.
- Appliqués – Sew onto bags, hats, scarves, or jackets.
- Hair accessories – Attach to hair ties, headbands, or clips.
- Brooches or pins – Sew a safety pin or brooch backing.
- Wall art – Mount on canvas or frame with lace.
🪡 Tips for Personalizing
- Color Variations: Swap yellow for gold or orange for a marigold look.
- Petal Count: Add 2 more puff stitches in Round 1 for an 8-petal flower.
- Yarn Choice: Try gradient yarn for soft ombré petals.
🧼 Care Instructions
- Hand wash gently with cold water.
- Lay flat to dry to keep the flower shape.
- Use fabric stiffener if needed to keep petals crisp for décor use.
