Flower Pin - Cvetni broš

 

Specialty Stitch:
bp sl st = Back Post sl st. 

Gauge is not important to this project, different size hooks and yarn weights yield different size flowers.The pink flower is 5 1/2 inches(14 cm) and the white flower is 5 inches (12.7 cm) from the edge of one petal to the edge of the opposite petal. Both were made with an I hook and worsted weight yarn.

Insert hook into designated hole from BACK to front, insert hook into next hole from FRONT to back.  Your hook is now laying over a post, yo and pull thru both holes, and the loop on hook. bp sl st made.

ROW 1: ch 2, 7 sc in first ch. Do not join.
ROW 2: *1 sc, 1 hdc, 1 dc, 1 hdc, 1 sc, all in the next st*. Repeat from * to * in each st around. Do not join. (7 petals)

Note: Look at the center of the flower. You'll see a center hole that was made by the stitches of row 1, and 7 holes made by the stitches of row 2. The sides of the holes is called the "post".
The stitches of row 3 will be worked around these posts.

ROW 3: working in the hole made from the last petals, insert hook from BACK to front, around the post and into the next hole from front to back. yo and pull thru both holes, and the loop on hook.
