These little flowers are a nice addition to any crochet project.
I don't assume everyone knows how to crochet or the terminology. For the life of me I can never remember what the Garter St is in knitting, so I always have to look it up before I begin a project. I hope this step by step tutorial with pictures will help you with making these cute little flowers.
Making the slip knot
Row 1 - ch 3, sl st in 3rd chain from hook to form a circle
 |
Row 2 - do not sl st to connect to row 1. Do 10 sc inside the circle again, at the same time squeeze your bud together as you do your sc. The tighter the bud the higher it will stand up from the petals
 |
The black bub was pulled extremely tight, look how high it stands above the petals compared to the 2 other flowers that were pulled at different tightness
Row 3 - change to smaller size crochet hook, join contrasting yarn
ch 3, dc in the same st as ch 3, ch 3, sl st in the same st as ch 3
 |
Row 4 - repeat row 3, 9 more times around your bud. Completed flower should have 10 petals
