Do you know how to crochet a flower? It might surprise you to learn that most crochet flower patterns only call for the basic crochet stitches. The nice thing about these patterns is that they are all very small and manageable. So you don’t need very much yarn and you don’t need very much free time either!
Whether you are looking for simple crochet flower patterns that are free or 3D crochet flower patterns you are sure to strike crochet gold in this curated collection of free crochet patterns. There are so many different patterns out there for crochet flowers and they are all beautiful and unique in their own way but only 25 of them were good enough to make the cut.
In addition to more common crochet flower patterns like roses and daffodils, we also have patterns for a few exotic botanicals like calla lilies, hyacinths, and orchids. You can use these designs to make a bouquet that will last forever or use them as embellishments to add a unique flair to other crochet projects.
