🌼 Pattern Instructions – Daisy Flower Square

πŸ”Έ Step 1: Center of Flower (Yellow)

With yellow yarn:

  1. Begin with a magic ring (or ch 4 and sl st to form a ring).
  2. Ch 1, make 8 sc into ring.
  3. Pull ring tight and sl st to first sc to join. (8 sc)
  4. Fasten off and cut yarn.

πŸ”Έ Step 2: Petals (Pink)

Join pink yarn to any stitch from the yellow center.

Round 2 – Form 8 Petals:

Repeat the following in each sc from Round 1:

(Ch 2, 3 dc in same stitch, ch 2, sl st in same stitch)
– this makes 1 petal.

Do this in all 8 stitches around the yellow center. (8 petals)
Sl st to base of first petal to finish.

Fasten off pink and weave in ends.

βœ… The petals will form a 3D flower on top of the yellow center.

πŸ”Έ Step 3: Base Circle (Behind Petals)

Now form the round base that will become a square.

Attach white or light pink yarn by inserting the hook behind any pink petal and into the sc of yellow center (between petals).

Round 3:

  1. Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc), dc in same st.
  2. 2 dc in each remaining sc around from yellow center. (16 dc total)
  3. Sl st to top of ch-3 to close round.

βœ… This builds the foundation for turning the motif into a square.

πŸ”Έ Step 4: Form the Square Shape

Round 4 – Shape the Square with Corners:

  1. Ch 3 (counts as dc), dc in next 2 sts.
  2. (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in next st β†’ this forms your first corner.
  3. Dc in next 3 sts.
  4. (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in next st β†’ second corner.
  5. Repeat the above to form 4 sides and 4 corners.
  6. Sl st to top of ch-3 to join.

βœ… You now have a square with daisy in the center.

πŸ”Έ Step 5: Optional Additional Rounds

To make the square larger, work additional rounds as follows:

Round 5:

  • Dc in each stitch across each side.
  • In each corner ch-2 space, work: (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc).
  • Sl st to join.

Repeat more rounds to enlarge the square if desired.

πŸŽ€ Optional: Add Texture or a Border

  • Use back loop only (BLO) for final round to add a subtle raised edge.
  • Finish with crab stitch (reverse sc) for a decorative trim.
  • Use picot edging for a lacy feel.

πŸͺ‘ Finishing Touches

  • Weave in all ends securely using the tapestry needle.
  • Lightly block the motif to straighten edges and smooth petals.
