Here's a free pattern to crochet your own bouquet of sunflowers
If you’re tired of being inside your house and need a bit of a pick-me-up, try crocheting!
But before you let out a heavy sigh and an eye roll, crocheting doesn’t have to be impossible. True, it can be difficult at times but it is surely doable. Besides, once you get the hang of it, there are countless designs that you’ll be able to do all on your own!
Who wouldn’t want those bragging rights?
For those who have seen crochet but aren’t exactly sure of what it is, technically it’s the “process of creating textiles by using a crochet hook to interlock loops of yarn, thread, or strands of other materials.”
Below are some crochet examples.
Crochet allows us to design things that might not be feasible to have all year long. For example, flowers are wonderful decorations to have around the house. Unfortunately, they don’t last forever. However, crochet does!
Thus, if you find yourself looking around your home and wishing you had flowers to fill the space, look no further!
Crochet blogger, Krawka, from Poland, shared a crochet pattern for a beautiful sunflower bouquet on her website. One of the best parts about the design is that it doesn’t require a lot of material.
However, if you’re still feeling a bit intimidated by the thought of crocheting, keep in mind that it’s still simpler than knitting. In fact, one website took the time to point out the differences between the two.
While the website is dedicated to crocheting, it still might be worth checking out. There are a few good pointers throughout the article that are especially helpful for those who are debating between knitting and crocheting.
Krawka even has an Etsy page for those who are interested in purchasing her designs in order to crochet them on their own at home. We must admit, for the price, it might not be a bad idea to buy an item or two.
After all, she’s received rave reviews.
“Great, clear, and easy to follow pattern! All the pictures included were super helpful, especially when it came to assembly! Very happy with this pattern. Finished product is absolutely adorable!”
“The pattern was very easy to follow and it turned out so precious. Thank you to the creator for such a wonderful and creative pattern. I’m sure I will purchase more.”
With over 26,000 items sold and a perfect five-star rating, what’s not to love?
Currently, she has 75 items for sale on her page. The only problem you’ll face is deciding which items to purchase.
For those who do crochet their own beautiful flowers, try placing them in a pot! This website shows how they placed their crochet flowers into the perfect flower pot.
Whatever you decide to do, make sure to have fun! We could all use a little (or a lot) of that nowadays. Maybe if you enjoy the experience, you can crochet more and leave one out for your neighbors. Who wouldn’t want a nice and thoughtful surprise on their doorstep? You’ll surely brighten their day!
