Blue Flower Brooch

As a dedicated crafter with different desires on colors, shapes and combinations - I have a lot of yarn remains. Often I am thinking of making something from my stash to organize the yarn better. This Flower Brooch is made from Bulky yarn, is simple and can be a nice embellishment for any cardigan, coat or a capelet.

  • Bulky yarn, 4 colors: Yarn 1 (light grey), Yarn 2 (blue), Yarn 3 (dark blue), Yarn 4 (mocco)
  • Aran yarn, 1 color for the tassels and the chain: Yarn 4 (ivory)
  • 6.00 mm crochet hook

Small Flower


Round 1. Take Yarn 1 and make a loose slip knot. Ch1 (doesn't count as a st) and work 6 sc into the loop, sl st into the first sc [6sc], finish off and cut the yarn


Round 2. Attach Yarn 2 to any front loop of Row 1 and sl st into 6 sts, slip the loop off the hook gently, insert the hook from the wrong side into the 1st sl st of Yarn 2, put the loop back to the hook and bring it to the Wrong side.
  
Round 3 (Worked at the WS, into the 3rd loop of Row 2). These 3rd loops are clearly seen, so, ch2, into the 1st loop work (2dc cluster, ch2), into next, and each following loop work (sl st, ch2, 2dc cluster) 5 times more to receive the flower with 6 petals, in the end of the Round - sl st into base of ch-2 and cut the yarn.

Hide the yarn tails and sew all elements of the brooch together: tassels and leaves put under the larger flower, smaller flower - place on the top. If desired - add some beads on it :)
