I thought I might have a go at writing an easy pattern before I tackle writing the crochet pattern for this bunting. I’ve never been able to follow coded pattens very well (I prefer pictorial ones) so when I totally messed up one I was following for a flower, I just made up an easier version myself.<\/span>\"\"<\/a>
\nI hope it’s easy enough to follow. Please leave a comment if you’ve made it with a little pattern review. If there is a problem let me know so I can fix it.<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m assuming you know how to do these basic crochet stitches (there are heaps of good how-to videos on Youtube). I used 8ply wool (yellow and lilac) 5ply (blue) – i had these lying around, you can use any ply as long as the hook sort of matches<\/span>.
\nSize 4.00 hook<\/span>
\nstitches (UK\/AUS):<\/span>
\nchain ch<\/span>
\nslip stitch ss
\ndouble crochet dc<\/span>
\ntreble tr<\/span><\/p>\n

I have pictured step by step to make it easier for you (and me) to understand.<\/span>
\n1. ch 8, join with ss to form a ring<\/span>
\n2. ch 1, dc 15 into ring<\/span>
\n3. change colour join with ss to first dc<\/span>\"\"<\/a>4. ch 1, dc into same as last ss, *(ch 3 skip next 2 , dc 1) repeat from * (4 times), ch 3 ss to first dc<\/span>
\n5. ch 1 ( the next stitches are worked into the ch 3 space) *(dc 1, tr 3, dc 1, ch), repeat from * endng round with ss into first dc<\/span>
\n6. fasten off all yarns<\/span>
\n\"\"<\/a>7. If you want to add another ring of petals dc into the initial (yellow) dc ring one stitch over from the first row in step 4. continue like step 4.<\/span>
\n8. you can see the reverse in this image the blue dc are next to the lilac dc all the way around.<\/span>
\n9. continue as for step 5 & 6.<\/span><\/p>\n

I hope that makes sense…I will be posting more craft tutorials whenever I get some time, I’m happy to take suggestions for thing you may like to see.<\/span>
\nHave fun,<\/span>
