Pretty Tulips

Tulips are a truly beautiful flower. The way they sway and bounce and the colour pops that they provide really do make you smile. You pop them in a vase and have no idea how they are going to fall.... they just do their own thing and look amazing in the process.

These crocheted tulips are a simple design that include wiring the petals to give them more structure if you are adding them to a bouquet.

I have used a 3mm hook with a 4ply cotton however if you wanted a larger tulip, simple use a thicker yarn and the same pattern with a wonderful end result.

Enjoy playing!

You will be able to create approximately 4 tulips from one ball of Scheepjes 50g Catona yarn (125 metres).

Your tulip will measure approximately 6cm in height

Create one, create many.... keep for your home or share in a bouquet with others.

I have recommended a cotton 4ply however you can choose a thicker yarn to achieve a larger end result. Also, work with the hook size that suits your tension.
