What is Crochet?

Crochet is a technique of creating fabric using yarn or thread, a hook, and a combination of basic stitches. It’s similar to knitting but uses one hook instead of two needles. Crocheting allows for more versatility in design as it can create both flat and three-dimensional shapes.

There are different types of crochet stitches that can be used to create various textures, patterns and designs. Some of the basic stitches include single crochet, double crochet, treble crochet and slip stitch.

How Do You Crochet Easy Daisy?

Crocheting an easy daisy flower is a great way to add a bit of beauty and texture to any project! To crochet an easy daisy, you will need the following items: yarn, a crochet hook, scissors, and a measuring tape.

Use a Measuring Tape

To begin, ch 6 loops onto your crochet hook. Then, close the loops together with a slip stitch, creating a circle. Next, chain four and make a double crochet into the center of the circle. Follow this up with another chain of four, and then make three treble crochets in the center of the circle. 

This will form the daisy’s petals. Continue repeating these steps until you have created eight petals for your daisy flower. To finish off, join all of your petals together by making one slip stitch at the end of each petal.

Congratulations! You have now successfully crocheted an easy daisy flower! This simple pattern is perfect for beginners and can easily be used to embellish hats, scarves, blankets, or any other project you have in mind.

Overall, the pros outweigh the cons and learning how to crochet a daisy flower is a worthwhile skill to have in your crafting repertoire.

Materials Needed:

Yarn:

You can use any type of yarn for your daisy flower, but thinner yarn will create a more delicate and detailed look. You can also experiment with different colors to create unique and vibrant daisies.

Any Type of Yarn

Crochet Hook:

The size of your crochet hook will depend on the thickness of your yarn. For a standard medium-weight yarn, a size H/8 (5mm) or I/9 (5.5mm) hook should work well.

Scissors:

A good pair of scissors is essential for any crochet project. Make sure they are sharp and able to easily cut through yarn.

Measuring Tape:

A measuring tape can come in handy when making a daisy flower, as it allows you to keep track of the size and proportions of your petals.

10 Methods on How to Crochet Daisy Flower

1.  Choose the Right Yarn

The first step in learning how to crochet a daisy flower is to choose the right yarn. A worsted-weight yarn will work well for this project. You will also need a size G or H crochet hook. 

If you are planning to crochet a larger flower, choose a thicker yarn and hook.

While cotton yarn is recommended for this project, you can choose to use any type of yarn that will provide the desired look and feel. Although any color of yarn can be used, white or yellow yarn will create the most realistic-looking daisy flower.

2.  Make a Slip Knot

To start, you will need to make a slip knot on your crochet hook. To do this, take the tail end of your yarn and make a loop. Then, insert your hook into the loop and pull the yarn through. This will create a new loop on your hook, which is now considered the “active” loop.

If you need more help making a slip knot, there are plenty of videos available online to help guide you. Although this step may seem small and insignificant, a slip knot is necessary for any crochet project. However, don’t worry if it takes a few tries to get the slip knot right! In crochet, practice makes perfect.

3.  Chain Stitch

Next, you will need to do a chain stitch. To do this, simply wrap the yarn around your hook and then pull it through the active loop. This will create a new loop on your hook, which is now considered the “active” loop. Repeat this step until you have created a chain that is about 12 inches long. To finish, cut the yarn and pull it through your last loop.

If you have done this correctly, your chain should be tight and secure. Though it may take some practice to get the tension just right, with enough patience, you will be able to create a perfect chain. Make sure to leave a tail of at least 6 inches after you’ve finished your chain. This will make it easier to attach the daisy flower later.

4.  Single Crochet Stitch

Once you have created your chain, it’s time to start working on the actual daisy flower. To do this, you will need to do a single crochet stitch into the second chain from your hook. To do this, insert your hook into the second chain from your hook and then wrap the yarn around your hook. Next, pull the yarn through the chain and then through the active loop on your hook. This will create one single crochet stitch.

Using a Single Crochet Stitch

It’s important to note that you are working into the back loop of each stitch. This will create a neat and defined edge for your daisy petals. You will also need to do this for each stitch as you create the flower petals.

5.  Double Crochet Stitch

For the next row of stitches, you will need to do a double crochet stitch into each stitch across. To do this, insert your hook into the next stitch and then wrap the yarn around your hook twice. Next, pull the yarn through the stitch and then through both loops on your hook. This will create one double crochet stitch. Repeat this step until you have reached the end of the row.

Although this may seem like a lot of steps, once you get the hang of it, it will become second nature. Remember to keep working into the back loop of each stitch for a defined edge.

6.  Triple Crochet Stitch

For the next row of stitches, you will need to do a triple crochet stitch into each stitch across. To do this, insert your hook into the next stitch and then wrap the yarn around your hook three times. Next, pull the yarn through the stitch and then through both loops on your hook. 

This will create one triple-crochet stitch. If you’re having trouble, refer to the video tutorial for a visual demonstration. To complete the Daisy Flower, continue to repeat steps 5 and 6 until your desired size is achieved. Congratulations! You have now made a beautiful crochet daisy flower.

7.  Slip Stitch

To finish off the daisy flower, you will need to slip the stitch across each of the stitches. To do this, insert your hook into the next stitch and then wrap the yarn around your hook once. Next, pull the yarn through both loops on your hook. This will create a slip stitch. Repeat this step until you have reached the end of the row.

Wrap the Yarn Around Your Hook

Once you have finished the slip stitch, cut off your yarn and weave in any loose ends. Additionally, you can add a chain stitch into the center of the daisy flower to secure it further. To do this, simply insert your hook into the center of the daisy and pull a loop of yarn through it. Then, just make a regular chain stitch and cut off the yarn when you are done.

8.  Finish Off

Once you have finished your daisy flower, it’s time to finish off your work. To do this, chain two and then make one single crochet using the same stitch as the last slip stitch. This will secure your work and give it a neat finish.

Fasten Off by Cutting the Yarn

Fasten off by cutting the yarn and pulling it through the last loop on your hook. Your daisy flower is now ready to be used for decoration or given as a gift. Enjoy your creation! To learn more about crocheting, consider taking classes or watching tutorials online. With practice and patience, you’ll become a crochet expert in no time!

9.  Connect the Petals

Now it’s time to connect all of the petals together. To do this, simply make one slip stitch into each of the stitches across the bottom of the daisy flower. This will create an invisible seam that connects all of the petals together. To finish off, cut your yarn and pull the end through the last loop that you made to secure it.

Cut of Your Yarn

Although this may seem intimidating, once you’ve done it a few times, it will become much easier. You can now move on to the next steps and create a beautiful daisy flower masterpiece. To make your flower even more special, consider adding a stem and leaves or using different colored yarns to make it unique. Have fun and happy crocheting!

10.  Weave in Your Ends

The last step is to weave in your ends. To do that, thread a yarn needle with the end of your yarn and sew it into the back of the flower. Make sure to secure the yarn in multiple places so that it doesn’t come undone or unravel over time. Otherwise, your hard work and beautiful daisy flower may fall apart. Once all ends are woven in and secured, give your flower a final look over and make any necessary adjustments for a perfect finish.

It’s important to take the time to weave in your ends and secure them properly for a polished final product. This will also ensure that your daisy flower will last for years to come.
