Summer Lilacs
crochet pattern
Daisy Watson







I made a scarf using the same pattern. Scarf measures 66 inches long x 12 inches wide.
Using Caron Simply Soft in Autumn Red
The scarf will make a swirling effect this makes it even more beautiful.

seat belt cover crochet pattern

rose pin crochet pattern


materials : bulky yarn, US J/10 6mm crochet hook

Step 1
Chain 43
Step 2
Double crochet in fifth chain from hook * chain 1, skip next chain, in next chain double crochet, chain 1, double crochet, repeat from * across.
Step 3
Chain 3, 5 double crochets in first chain one space *. Single crochet in next chain one space, 6 double crochets in next chain one space, repeat from * across. Fasten off, leave long tail.
Step 4
Starting at one end, roll first petal tightly to make the center of the rosette, continue rolling tightly layer by layer to form the shape of the flower. Thread needle with the long tail on the back of the flower. Tack each layer of the flower together being careful to get each layer and not pulling the thread too tight as this will distort the shape of the flower. Keeping the same long tail in needle, lay the pin back in approximately the place you want and attach with yarn just weaving it over the pin back until secured.
