'May Day' Crochet Flower Free Pattern....

Today is the 1st of May, so I named my flower design 'May Day'.

I used variegated blue & white cotton thread (I think it's size 10 but am not positive because it was in a bag of scraps that my Gran gave me.) I used a USA size 10 hook (1.25mm metal hook ) and all the abbreviations are USA terms. There are two special abbreviations...

2tr bobble  (2 triple crochet bobble) = leaving last loop of each on hook, work 2tr into ring, yo, pull through all 3 loops on hook.

3tr bobble (3 triple crochet bobble) = leaving last loop of each on hook, work 3tr into ring, yo, pull through all 4 loops on hook. 

'May Day' Pattern...

Starting Ring:

Do 10 chain and join with sl,st.

Round 1: 

4 ch, 2tr bobble in ring. [6 ch, 3tr bobble into ring] x7. 6 chain, sl, st to top of 1st bobble.

Round 2:

[1sc, 1hdc, 2dc, 2tr, 2dc, 1hdc, 1sc into chain space below] x8. sl, st into1st sc of the round. Cast off.

This pattern will be been posted with UK terms on 2nd May over on It's a Creative World .

Hi Mandy, thanks for the comment on my blog :) I see from the previous post that you were responsible for the fab bird project - I need to get some printable acetate! Thanks for allowing us to copy the pics from here - I had saved the 'Vintage Printables' to my faves but you've made it easier.
