Step 1: Crochet the Tulip Bloom
- Make a magic ring (or chain 5 and join to form a ring).
- Round 1: Ch 2 (counts as first dc), make 11 more dc into the ring. (Total 12 dc). Sl st to the top of the starting chain.
- Round 2: Ch 2, dc into the same stitch. 2 dc in each stitch around. (Total 24 dc). Sl st to the top of the starting chain.
- Round 3 (Petals): Ch 3, 2 dc in the next stitch, 3 tr in the next stitch, 2 dc in the next stitch, sl st into the next stitch. Repeat this pattern around to form 6 petals. Sl st to finish the round.
Step 2: Crochet the Stem
- Chain 25 (or longer if you prefer a longer stem).
- Sc in the second chain from the hook and in each chain across.
- Fasten off and weave in the ends.
Step 3: Crochet the Leaves
- Ch 10.
- Starting in the second chain from the hook, sc in the next stitch, hdc in the next stitch, dc in the next 4 stitches, hdc in the next stitch, sc in the last stitch.
- Turn the leaf: Work along the other side of the chain. Repeat the same stitches (sc, hdc, dc, hdc, sc) to create a mirrored leaf shape.
- Sl st to the first stitch and fasten off.
Step 4: Assemble the Tulip
- Attach the stem to the base of the tulip bloom using a yarn needle and secure tightly.
- Sew or glue the leaves to the stem.
Optional:
- Stuffing: Add a little bit of stuffing inside the bloom if you want the flower to be more rounded and full.
- Bouquet: Repeat this process to create multiple tulips in different colors and bundle them together to make a crochet flower bouquet.
Enjoy your handmade crochet tulip!
