DIY Flower

What happens when a mistake produces something beautiful? What happens when the result blows your mind? Well, guys this was my story yesterday.

I decided to crochet a hairband yesterday. I was super pumped, and it felt like it was super easy, and I could even do it with my eyes closed, but I was wrong.

My hairband turned out looking like everything but the band that I wanted. I discarded it out of disappointment.

While staring at my mistake in the face, I noticed the edges of my work were curling, and I decided to fold all of them together, and guess what, guys? It worked!!! A beautiful flower was born and I’m glad I could salvage the ruins from my project eventually.

To make this beautiful flower I used the following materials and followed the steps below.

Materials
Yarn
Crochet hook
Scissors

Procedure

Step 1:
Make a slip knot, chain 95 (this depends on your type of yarn, hook size, and preference).

Step 2:
Make a half double crochet on the third stitch, repeat the same pattern for all the stitches.

Step 3:
Begin round two by making a chain, turn your work over, and make a half double crochet on the back loop of all your stitches.

Step 4:
Repeat the same pattern for as many rounds as you wish to make. Afterwards, neatly fold all of them together.

Step 5:
Stitch the petals together and make a stem by tying a knot on a stick and wrapping the yarn around the stem neatly from start to finish. Attach your stem to your flower and voila! Your flower is ready!

This was supposed to be a failed project but, things took a different turn and I am so glad.

Do you like my flower? Would you love to make something like this? I’d love to read your thoughts in the comments.
