What You Need for Your Crochet Flower Patterns
With crochet flowers, the materials you will be using can greatly depend on the pattern you follow. Here’s a quick list of crochet essentials!
- Crochet hooks – You’ll need crochet hooks in order to finish your crochet flower pattern. Crochet hooks come in different sizes, so make sure to check your pattern’s list of materials! Recommended hook sizes can also be found on your yarn’s label.
- Yarn – Crochet flower patterns often have their own yarn suggestions, so make sure to check those out too in the “recommended yarn” section! Pay attention to the yarn weight and suggested fiber type if you’re going to choose a different yarn than what the pattern recommends.
- Scissors – A pair of scissors is another important tool that you will use for all of your knitting projects. You’ll need them to cut yarn tails and hide loose ends.
- Stitch markers – You might need stitch markers to keep track of where you are in a pattern. For crochet, make sure you’re using stitch markers that can open and close, also called “locking stitch markers.” If you don’t have stitch markers, use a strand of scrap yarn or a thin paper clip—preferably in a bright color so it’s easy to see.
- Yarn/darning needle – You will need a yarn needle or darning needle to sew in the loose yarn ends.
- Floral wires – Some flower crochet patterns here may require stems. So make sure to have a few floral wires or even pipe cleaners on hand. These come in different thicknesses, so check your pattern’s recommended measurements!
