Loopy Flower Motif

© Karen Wiederhold

I hope you enjoy making these Loopy Flowers as much as the fun I had in creating the design and pattern.  Whether you make one flower to turn into a brooch or produce a whole bouquet of these motifs joined together to reveal scarves, wraps, cushion covers etc, I wish you lots of joy. 

The flower pictured above was made using oddments of Double Knit yarn from my stash and 3.5mm hook. 

Round 1:   Using white, Ch5 and SS into first stitch to join into a ring. 

Round 2:   Ch3, then Tr11 into the ring, SS into first stitch to join.

Round 3:   (Ch6 skip a stitch then SS into next stitch) and repeat until you have five loops. Ch6 then SS into the base at the start of the first loop of the round and tie off.

Round 4:   Join on blue yarn in one of the stitches skipped in previous round.  Working behind the white loops created in earlier round (Ch6 then SS into next skipped stitch from previous round) and repeat until you have five loops.  Ch6 then SS into the base at the start of the first loop of the round and tie off.

Round 5.   Join purple yarn at centre point of blue loop, (Ch8, SS at centre of next blue loop) and repeat to form 5 purple loops, Ch8, SS into the first chain of first loop to join.

Round 6.   In this first petal loop (Ch3, Tr9, SS into same loop then SS into the next loop) and repeat for each petal, ending with SS, tie off yarn.
