Flower Bouquet Pattern Wedding and Graduation

by

The patterns of each flower of this bouquet, it will allow you to replicate this exact bouquet. The colors used can change, as any variation can make an unique bouquet and will still be beautiful.

Material needed

  • crochet hook size 2-2.5mm
  • cotton yarn of your preference (4 ply)
  • thin wire for every petal or leaf that will need it
  • wood stick or a thick wire for the flower stem it (to make moldable stems to be able to wrap it like the first picture around a bucket, use moldable metallic wires as stem.
  • glue (hot glue)
    The color of the yarn used for each part is up to you, in the document i’ll show some options but there are plenty more combinations that will look great.

Thin wire similar to this for leafs and petals. Must be moldable. ( around 0.6 mm for leaves and petals, and a thicker one as 2mm for stem)

Thick wire or wooden stick, as straight as possible, so the
flower won’t fall.

Yarn size specifications

For this pattern I used a 4ply yarn from my local store. Milk yarn, cotton yarn, acrylic yarn, all can be used, will depend on what are you more comfortable with. As per instructions you can select the yarn you prefer, depending on the size of your yarn, adjust the hook used, if the yarn is thicker, the product will turn out bigger, if it is an amigurumi, with a thicker yarn and a bigger crochet hook you can make up a plushie.

For the exact size of my images it will be 4ply

Please note that yarn size will also vary depending on the manufacturer and the fiber content of the yarn. Normally to make the same size of crocheted product as my images a 2mm-2.5mm hook is used, with a 4ply yarn, make sure it is not too thick or too thin.

  • Ch – chain: To make a chain stitch, yarn over (YO) your hook and then pull it through the loop on your hook. This will create a new loop.
  • Repeat this process until you have the desired number of chains.
  • Dc – double crochet: YO, insert hook into stitch, YO, pull up a loop (3loops on hook). YO, pull through 2 loops (2 loops on hook). YO, pull through remaining 2 loops. 1 double crochet completed.
  • Dec – decrease: Yarn over (yo), insert hook into stitch, yo, pull up a loop (3 loops on hook). Yo, pull through 2 loops (2 loops on hook). Yo, insert hook into next st, yo, pull up a loop (4 loops on hook). Yo, pull through 2 loops (3 loops on hook). Yo, pull through remaining 3 loops.
  • Dc2tog completed.
  • FLO – front loop only: When working in the front loop only, insert your hook into only the front loop of the stitch.
  • Hdc – half double crochet: Yarn over (yo), insert hook into stitch, yo, pull up a loop (3 loops on hook). Yo, pull through all loops. Half crochet completed.
  • Inc – increase: Add one or more stitches to the current round or row.
  • To increase with a single crochet, work two single crochet stitches into the same stitch.

  • Rep – repeat: Repeat a pattern or sequence of stitches
  • Sc – single crochet: Insert hook into stitch, yarn over (yo), pull up a loop (2 loops on hook). Yo, pull through both loops on hook. 1 single crochet completed. .
  • Sk – skip stitch: Skip the next stitch in the row or round.
  • Sl st – slip stitch: Insert your hook into the next stitch, YO, and pull through both the stitch and the loop on your hook.
  • St – stitch: A stitch refers to a loop of yarn that is pulled through another loop to create a pattern.
  • Tr – treble crochet: YO twice, then insert your hook into the next
  • stitch. YO again and pull up a loop (4 loops left on hook). YO and pull through the first two loops on your hook (3 loops left). YO and pull through the next two loops on your hook. YO and pull through the last two loops on your hook.
  • w – sc3 in same st: Work three single crochet stitches into the same stitch.
  • YO – yarn over: Wrap the yarn over the hook before inserting it into the next stitch.
  • FO – fasten off: Cut the yarn and pull it through the final loop to secure the stitch.

Tulips

Small petals (x3):

  • R1: Chain 12.
  • R2: (add wire) sk, sc, hdc, 7dc, hdc,w, hdc, 7dc, hdc, sc
  • R3: 23 sc

Big petals (x3):

  • R1: chain 13
  • R2: sk, 11 sc, w, 11 sc
  • R3: (add wire) sc, hdc, 9dc, hdc, w, hdc, 9dc,
  • hdc, sc
  • R4: 27sc
  • Big leaf:
  • R1: chain 31
  • R2: (add wire) sk, 3 sc, 3 hdc, 18 dc, 3 hdc, 2
  • sc, w, 2sc, 3 hdc, 18 dc, 3hdc, 3 sc

Start sticking with glue around the stick the small petals, and then add the bigger ones, in a circular way. Add the leaf in the down part of the stick, and roll yarn around the stick to secure the leaf and make the stem look more natural.

Daisy flower

Center of the flower:

  • R1: 6 sc magic ring
  • R2: 6 inc
  • R3: 12 sc and FO

(Make one yellow and with the same steps make a green one for the back of the flower, to connect with the stem.)

You will have to connect both and stitch it together, before completely closing the stitch add some fiberfill or cotton to fill the inside of the center. And then start with the petals:

Petals

(3 ch, dc, 3 ch, sl st) Rep 12.
There will be 12 petals in total.
Connect the wire or wooden stick to the flower, depending on how you want to put the daisies it will be better to put the stem right in the middle of the center in the back of the flower or as the other flowers in between the two centers. Both ways will look good. Don’t forget to roll yarn over so the stem looks more realistic

Baby daisy flower

  • R1: 5 sc magic ring
  • R2: (2 ch, 3 dc, 2 ch) Rep 5 times

The center of the flower just pass the yarn making some stitches in the center.

You can make a few baby daisies and connect them to a wire o wooden stick rolling green yarn to make the stem.

If you use a light color, there is also the option to add some blush on the edges to make some gradient in the color.
