Flowers make me happy. Whether they’re real ones, fake ones, or my favorites – crochet ones, I love the sight of them. This pinwheel crochet flower free pattern came from my desire to branch out and create a flower with more depth and dimension. Sure enough, this pinwheel flower has it!
You can use any type of yarn you’d like, but I chose cotton yarn, because I love the feel of it. Sometimes acrylic yarn just isn’t fun to work with, you know?
You can make the flower in any color you’d like, so it’s perfect for any season. Want to add it to a fall bouquet? Use a rust or deep purple color.
Need an addition to your Spring centerpiece? Go for light colors like pale pinks and soft yellows. The possibilities are endless!
This free pattern is definitely easier than you guys think.
I’ve been using these as larger coat appliques and I strung a dozen of them together with a pretty ribbon to use as decoration in the house. You can also put them on a small dowel and use them in a centerpiece if you wanted to. There are a ton of possibilities!

Hi Michael, I am using around 1/4 of 50g.
Do you end the first loop and start the second loop in the same stitch?
