Photo tutorial of how to create the daisy

To beg - chain (ch) 5 and join to form a circle

Round 1: ch 2, 11 double crochet (dc) into ring



Round 2: change to new color with a slip st in any space between dc; ch2, * 3 treble (tc) in same space; remove crochet hook and insert it into the top of the first tc; hook and pull last tc through first loop - petal made - ch2 * and repeat * to *. make 11 more petals in this fashion

Slip st into first petal and finish off.






Sorry I didn't include the steps and photos side-by-side, but I thought by including some photos, you could at least have a gauge for how it should look! Good luck!

You can see photos of my finished blanket here.

  1. Such a cute pattern! Would you be willing to share how you make the rest of the block? I made the daisy but I can't make the block look right.

    1. Hi Kim, Thanks for your nice note. I'm working on a new daisy blanket for a customer over on Etsy, so when I work one up next time, I'll try to take some photos as I go. In the meantime: all that I'm doing is joining a new color in any of the ch spaces and working a simple granny square pattern:

      ch2 (or ch3 for some - I just like to do 2) - this counts as the first dc; then 2dc, ch1, 3dc - this is your first corner, * 3dc in the next two spaces, 3dc, ch1, 3dc* repeat from * two more times, 3dc in next two spaces. Join with a slip st. Fasten off.

      I hope that makes sense. As I mentioned, I'll try to take some new photos of this as soon as I can. Have a great weekend!

  12. Hi, first of all, I so appreciate that you posted the pattern for this as I've had it pinned on Pinterest for a while and have been excited to make this for my sister-in-law who loves daisies and the color lilac. I am starting today...I just have a question; when you start the new color for round 2 with a slip stitch and then do a tc, for me it doesn't seem to work, not sure if I've missed something or am doing it wrong, but it pulls the slip stitch up funny. Could I join with a slip stitch, ch 4, do 2tc, and then take the hook out to join them at the top? I hope this question makes sense, I don't mean to waste your time. Thank you so much!

    1. Hi Amanda, Thanks for stopping by! To answer your question, of course you could use a ch4 to begin the petal. For some reason, I try to avoid beg chains - I'm not sure why exactly! I just don't like the look - and I found it harder to pull through. It's all subjective, and I am always open to the traditional way or another! Good luck with your afghan!

    3. I tried this today and I'm having the same problem. Saw a video on YouTube under crochet daisy granny square by create crochet she said after the slip stitch chain 4 then do the treble crochet you will end up with the same height as the treble cr. The chain two is equivalent to a dc.

  20. hi there. i love the look of your daisy . have you written the instuctions in 'americian terms' a here in UK we refer to dc as a double-crochet whereas in USA is a treble.

    wouldn't it be easy if everyone had same terms for the stitches!!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hi Val - thanks for your note. Yes, I have written in American terms, so the trebles are doubles. I agree - it would be so much easier if we all just followed the same terms! (I also prefer metric, so much easier than inches and ounces over here - I wish we'd convert to that too!) Have a lovely rest of your week!

    1. Hi nenemoosha, I'm sorry for taking so long to get back to you! It's 3tc for each petal. I only start with a ch2 for the first petal as a "build up" - for some reason I don't like how a ch3, 2tc looks at the beginning, so I ch2 and 3tc for the first petal. I hope that makes sense. Happy crochet!

  22. I am new to crocheting and I want to thank you for sharing such an easy pattern, but I am having problems with my petals. My petals are flat and don't stick up like yours. Could you tell me what I might be doing wrong? I am using an I hook. Thanks so much!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hi Amy, I'm not sure why your petals aren't puffing up a bit. Mine don't stick up too much, but they don't lay flat either. You might be using a lighter weight yarn, or maybe your tension is looser. I do tend to crochet on the tighter side. (Note: When you remove the hook from the last tc made, insert your hook through the first tc and pull the last loop through the first tc - that's where you get that "pucker" or "lift".)

My mother's name is Daizy and she has a scottie trailer all done up in daisies, so for her b'day, I want to give her a blanket to match, using your tutorial! I'm using the same yellow and white for flowers, but the squares will be 2 shades of green because bright green is my mom's favorite color. haven't decided yet wether to border in more white, or darker green, so any ideas would be helpful.

    Thanks again for sharing! Lots of love from the South!

I worked on a light blue baby blanket that I was going to join/edge in bright blue, but the squares took a backseat to other projects...I will have to get those out and finally finish it up! Happy hooking!

    1. The chain two at the start of the round count as the first double,you then slip stitch into the second of those chains when you have done the 11 dc this gives you 12 dc and 12 spaces for petals.

Hi Judith, You may have already started on your blanket, but for a throw sized afghan I used 1/2 of a one pound skein of worsted weight, about a pound of the petal color, and 1-2 pounds of the outer border color. Of course, it depends on the hook and your tension too. Good luck and thanks for stopping by!

  41. This is the first successful-looking granny square I've been able to accomplish! I'm a newbie crocheter and very proud of myself -- however, my flower is sort of flat looking. It's not puffy/3d-ish looking like yours. Your tc's look almost on top of each other! Mine are more side by side, although the tighter I did:

    remove crochet hook and insert it into the top of the first tc; hook and pull last tc through first loop - petal made

    then, they got a little puffier. But, not much.

    Any idea? The Shasta daisy blanket is so pretty! I just the love the bright femininity of it!!

    1. Hi Elizabeth, I'm going to copy and paste what I mentioned to another reader. I have done so many sizes - and I usually have the yarn on hand, so I don't even pay attention anymore:

      For the throw size, (I'm guessing a little) it took one partial skein of the yellow and probably 2 skeins each of the white and pink (maybe a little more of the pink). Note: I used Caron One Pound yarn (Ball Size: 454g /16 oz, 742 meters /812 yards), so it's several pounds of yarn. This is a worsted weight yarn

      I'm not sure how the Paris Drops yarn works up, (or your tension). I would also do few squares and keep track of your yarn. Good luck!

  60. I always start with a Magic Circle....when you pull up your yarn and secure it, there is NO whole in the center. Just make sure you secure it well - or your work could unravel from the center out. I do knot it (with tapestry needle) and the knot can easily be pulled into stitches and will disappear.

  66. I've picked up crocheting again after a 30+ year hiatus. I'm loving it and able to do so many more stitches now. I've stayed away from granny squares due to all the tie-ins. I never knew that you could attach the squares as you go along. However, I ask, are you sc each stitch on the borders at the end to get the raised effect on each square? I love the raised look. This daisy blanket is just stunning. Thank you!! Side question....I assume if you join as you work on the blanket you can't have the raised borders, correct?

  77. I am currently making the Blue Daisy blanket for my daughter and I would like to find out what method you used to joint the granny squares?

    1. Hi Cristina, I used the join-as-you-go method. I have a tutorial for that as well under "Tutorials" at the top. Hope that helps.

  78. Beautiful! I realize this is an older post, but I see a lot of fellow crocheters are still commenting... could you be so kind as to tell what brand of yarn you used for this project? I usually use Hobby Lobby's I Love this Yarn, but I recently used Red Heart's LOVE. And I am currently doing a baby blanket with cotton Peaches and Cream, but I really am not liking very much. I'm thinking about trying Bernat Super Saver. Thank you!

    1. I am a Caron One Pound kinda girl :) But I like Hobby Lobby (their pink and aqua), and I've used Bernat Super Saver quite a bit (although it's more of a light worsted) but I'm still happy with the final product. I have no problem mixing and matching all yarn families, but try to stay with the same weights and fibers. The colors I used in this tutorial (I think) were Hobby Lobby Hot rose and Soft Pink. I hope that helps!

    3. Hi Darlene, If you would like to sell blankets made with this pattern, that is fine, however, I do ask that you note where you found the pattern, and I prefer that they not be identical as I do sell my blankets online as well. I would kindly ask that you not copy the daisy square pattern verbatim to sell as it is here for free. Thank you.

  82. Hi, just returning to crochet, after a long break from it, and just discovering that there is a British and an American way of doing stitches. Please can you clarify for me which one this pattern is. I'd love to make this (or a version of it) for my daughter.. it is so beautiful
    Many thanks

  86. Hello, I have just made my first baby blanket as a gift for a friend's daughter who has just had her first baby. I don't think I can put a picture here, but it's turned out pretty nice and I've so enjoyed making it. So thank you very much for this pattern!

  88. I am sad it won't let me put a pic. I am still new to reading the crochet lingo but my first one came out okay! I did 11 but I think it needs 12 to make it have 3 to make a square.

  89. All my petals are together. Looks great. Can you recommend a pretty border (how to) to go around the entire blanket. It is for a newborn baby girl. Thanks

  90. This is absolutely the cutest baby blanket. I saw it in grey, turquoise and pink and they are so pretty. I am a knitter but will attempt my hand at this one!

  91. Hi! I love that this daisy pattern doesn’t have a hole in the middle, like the last one I tried. I just wonder if this is UK or US crocheting terms?

    ReplyDelete
  92. I'm a bit confused... are you using UK or US terms?

  94. Your instructions were wonderful to follow. I never crocheted a granny square before and could not follow directions from so many other bloggers. For some reason, it was *your* method that absolutely worked... everything just clicked. Thank you so much! Your work is beautiful and inspiring, and I wanted you to know how much I appreciate it.

  95. Do you have instructions for all 6 rows of the upper left afghan? Thanks.

  99. Hello, what a beautiful blanket! I'm new to crocheting so not sure how this will turn out... how do you do the almost scalloped style edge to finish off the blanket?
