DIRECTIONS FOR FLOWERS (also see pictures on post named, Flowers-Flowers, Part 1)
I used thin yarn and a 5.00 mm hook.
Foundation row= 3 in. (small or inner piece for a 3 part flower petal)
This will be the "width" of the flower.  Three part flower petal as shown in blog; you'll need to make a small one, med. size (5 in. wide), and larger one (7-8 in. wide)  I tie ,or sew them together.

After Foundation row, hook onto the first loop (stitch) next to the knot, on the opposite side of row.
Single croc. 4 times and take that end and hook onto the next available stitch on the row. Connect onto existing stitch on hook, Croc. 4 and continue pattern around forming a circle shape.  Make 1 or 2 more rows like this.  You'll see the shape & puffiness of the petal.(I use a "marker"  where I started, so I know where to stop).

Please see all posts (11) on example and what to use them for.
GOOD IDEA FOR DONATIONS FOR OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD BOXES OR OTHER PLACES YOU DONATE.
