How To Crochet a Simple Flower - Absolute Beginners 

When it became a giant ball I cried

7:19 You are NOT patronizing. You’re one of the only ones who has slowed down and made it clearer. Thank you.

Finally someone actually showing at a pace I can follow. Normally people show the easiest parts slowly and then go "then you just do a double triple extra fudge stitch with three pullovers" and then I throw my hook at the wall

The instructions were super clear thank you! But mine ended up becoming a ball 😭

who else is picking crochet up as a new hobby because of QUARANTINE?

Anyone here in 2024? 👇

This tutorial was the first thing that taught me how to crochet and how to do stitches and get me into amigurumi. Two years later and I have a ton of amigurumi that I've made and all thanks to this tutorial. I know you probably aren't going to see this, but your tutorial let me have this hobby that calms me down and I can be creative this way! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heary

Your video was the only helpful one I have come across especially since I am an "absolute beginner"!! Don't ever apologize for going slowly or sounding condescending. Other videos I have watched go too fast and don't explain each move. Thank you so much!!

Umm... I think I did something wrong because there no way the mines look like a flower it's just a big ball.

Quarantine life: After years of failing to figure out crocheting, I just finished my first flower!!! Omg thank you! This is a perfect video for beginners. Slow and helpful!!! Thank you. I would love to make a blanket. Update Jan 2021... I have made a blanket and scarfs and I’m working on a sweater July 2021: can make shirts and cardigans and have become obsessed with buying yarn 🤣 December 2021: addicted to crocheting hats! March 2022: I’ve accumulated so much yarn! I have myself a yarn buying ban. It literally took over my craft room. Feb 2023: crochets so many sweaters I literally have no room to put them. Falls in love with chunky yarn. Is now a pattern tester! 🎉

Having only found you this afternoon, I've since made 7 of these. They were super easy for a beginner like me and I can't wait to watch and follow some of your other videos!

After many "Beginners" videos (And quitting after she went full speed ahead within a few minutes); finally thanks to your patient and detailed directions, I made my first flower🌺

YAY I FINALLY MADE A CUTE FLOWER!!!! Let the happy dance commence!! :-)

This video is so simple that i cant stop making flowers with my yarn! Its so satisfying to see me remember to make them without referring to this turorial. Please upload more!

I started crying when I couldn't do the treble crochet

After trying to make flowers for a while and getting a cloud like results, I can across your video. I'm happy to say I finally made a flower. Thank you so much!

I feel like I have a personal coach sitting next to me in my living room as I follow your tutorials. Thank you so much for the much needed help with my new hobby!

mine doesn’t look like this but i’m happy with my results 💀

Like even tho I am not an absolute begginer this is the BEST tutorial I have ever watched

EDIT: Okay I'm back and I realized one tip for beginners struggling with their project becoming a "ball" is that you need to move the center looped stitches over so there are no gaps to form the petals. It worked! You do mention it at the end of the video to do this at 18min, but this was why my flower wasn't taking proper shape :). Thank you for your wonderful video! My first time and it became kind of like a ball. I think I didn't use the proper tension so the different sized stiches lost the petal's shape. But your tutorial is very clear and helpful. I'm going to keep practicing and watching your videos until I get the proper feel for it because I feel like it will click after several tries. Definitely the most helpful video I have come across.

I taught myself to crochet with a book, but couldn't be sure if I was doing it right. Thanks for this tutorial, it was a great help!

I started to tach myself how to crochet yesterday, and wanted to make a lil something for my mom and I can't believe I could do this first try!!! The pace was perfect and I loved how you walked through every step so thoroughly :) thank youuuuuu

Well after several attempts I have finally got something that looks like a flower. Thank you very much for your instructions. I will keep practising until the flower is as perfect as yours xx

My parents are wondering why I’m lying on my bed crying with yarn in my hands

Thank you so much everyone for your kind feedback! I am so happy that most of you have managed to learn something new and enjoy crocheting a flower. (^-^)

Well I'm close to 60 yrs. And ur video has just taught me my first crochet piece. Have always knitted and always wanted to crochet, Thanks so much for your inspiring video. Well done indeed just an ol dog learning a new trick lol

This was the first non-square thing I learned to crochet. I adore them, I have made so many in just a few days. I love that you have these extra slow tutorials, but also that you explain terms and stitches in your more advanced videos (at least the ones I have seen!) I am looking forward to learning more things from your channel

I MADE MY FIRST CROCHET PROJECT Y'ALL. THIS TUTORIAL IS AMAZING

Oh my goodness. That has to be the easiest crochet tutorial I have ever seen (sorry Nan) Thank you very much xx

absolutely great. very easy to follow, especially for an ABSOLUTE beginner - at 73 years!! I shall be 'glued' to the sceen with hook and yarn tomorrow; many many thanks.

SUPER helpful video! great explanations and it was a great speed for me

Thank you, thank you!!! 😊 first time doing flowers!!! You explained this so well. It's not too fast and not too slow either! I find it so frustrating to find a video that doesn't go too fast. Love the way you repeat the stitches verbally... ❤❤❤ I m excited to do different flowers with you...

Thank you! I have had a really hard time finding beginner videos/instructions for crocheting. This video was so easy to follow and very helpful!

after the first petal, I LOST!!!🥲😭😭😭

One of the only beginner tutorials I’ve found that truly breaks it down and makes it easy- thanks so much for making this! Managed a flower correctly on the first try

I have had the most difficult time being able to crochet anything! Even granny squares keep going awry and for months and months it’s been such an uphill battle. I finally was able to actually make something-this flower!!! Absolutely wonderful tutorial; as someone with a learning disability, even the “super easy” tutorials have ended with tangled and sobbing, but I successfully made your flower!!!! I am excited to try more of your videos, thank you❤

I'm struggling with keeping my work in place; it moves around and I can't figure out which is the centre ring anymore. Help!

This was so helpful! I was struggling the first time since it became a ball and I was redoing it again and again but at school, I show how managed to memorize the pattern and just crocheted it and it turned out so pretty! I don’t mind one small petal which is smaller than the others though lol it became my first successful project!! I’m a beginner btw:3

This was super easy to follow, and bonus! I’m still bad enough at this craft that I got a ghost instead of a flower lmao

this is the first tutorial i managed to follow successfully THANK YOU i am so happy about this little flower😂😭😭😭😭❣️

This is the perfect speed for a total beginner like me!! I just made my first ever SUCCESSFUL crochet project thanks to you!!

This was such a good tutorial, for someone who's very slow at understanding things, and needs to see it a few times to understand fully. This was it. It only took me two tries before it looked like a flower! Thank you so much!

Thank you so much, the flower was a little sloppy but i still love it, i got attach it on my new wallet. And this is my first ever crochet that i ever made thanks to you...❤❤❤❤

You are the Bob Ross of crochet. Happy little flowers.

Guess what? I just made my first flower!!! This is the second project Ive made ever! My first was a ruffle scarf but that was a no brainer. Thank you soooo much for the tutorial!! Im so excited! lol lol

I agree that this is one of the b est beginners tutorial. I love her accurate clear voice, and filming 👍

I made my very first flower 🎉🎉. Thank you so much ❤

Oh my goodness! THANK YOU for being so clear, slow, etc. I love the flower I made with your instruction. I've been trying to find the "right" video for ME, for HOURS. Unraveled and restarted so many times I lost COUNT. With your video I had SUCCESS!!!! thanks.

If anyone else struggled like me, ill give you a tip! Pull your stitches of each petal together! Stopped it from being s big tangled ball and made a very cute flower!

As an absolute beginner...I appreciate how slow and detailed the instructions were! thank you!

Hi! Although I’m quite late I’m new, I thought that knitting might do me some good and might be quite relaxing and therapeutic, so I bought some stuff, and since covid started I asked my dad if he could buy some yarn along the way and I started to practice the basics and accidentally crossed this video of yours and tried it! After I did a few re-tries I actually did it! I was so proud of myself that I went to show my parents and they told me I did an absolute fantastic job! Thank you so much for this tutorial, without this I might not know what to do next! 💖

Wow this was a brilliant tutorial. So easy to follow and you are so patient. I have tried for many years and always failed - but now I have actually made a flower!! Yay

I MADE A FLOWER AHHHHH well its not as cute as yours but at least i got a flower and this was my first time doung crochet ever im so happy thank you so much your instructions were very clear 🤍🫶🏼

I am an absolute level 0 noob (literally just opened the crochet needle package as I was loading this page) and this flower was the first thing i ever crocheted. it was so simple and easy to understand. I'm so glad this was the first crochet video I ever watched!

This is such an incredible video! I have never attempted to crochet anything before...this is the very first tutorial I ever watched and with your amazingly detailed instructions, I was able to successfully make the whole flower by the end of the video!! Thank you so much I can't wait to learn more!

Nice paced video for beginners. Thank you!

Her : and here is our little flower 🥰 Me looking at the absolute nightmare in yarn form between my fingers : ah yes... a ... flower..

You are such a great teacher, I couldn’t crochet to save my life, but after watching your video I have made one flower, it ugly, but I will keep practicing till I make one that would look like the one you made. Thank you 🙏🏻

Hi there Teacher! I am sooooooooooo glad to find your video! I, for one, do appreciate your teaching videos. I am a 3 time stoke survivor, the last one had me not even able to feel the glass in my right hand! God blessed me 3 times! I am a cross stitcher of my own designs. Now that I can stitch, I am proceeding with crocheting items that are small thanks to you doing this videos for slow pokes like me! Poppy in hot Georgia wishing you a wonderful, healthy day.

I have never been able to understand what people were doing ,this is brilliant.thank you .

I've tried to do this twice... I've found by the time i get done with the second petal, it's already taken up the entire little "circle" we made at the beginning, can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong??? I thought it was just because I was using thick yarn at the beginning, but apparently not...

After two days of attempts, I finished it!! My first project, thank you so much❤️❤️

thanks for this wonderful tutorial. you go slow enough and explain well enough so us beginners can understand. this makes a huge difference

I just found this video at the beginning of my crochet journey, and just based on the fact there is captions for someone like me who has shit hearing tells me this is going to be my new favorite channel

JUST MADE ONE! It’s lumpy and my petals are not even but it’s my first project and I love it! THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO ❤❤❤

Omg thank you so much! I’ve just started crocheting about a month ago and I haven’t found one video that is easy for me to follow and this was absolutely perfect! My flower looks so beautiful thank you so much ❤️❤️

Thank you do much for this! As a beginning crocheter this was much more helpful than other videos and instructions I have seen. I love the way you actually crochet every single stitch in real time with us, unlike other videos who crochet one then fast forward, leaving me lost and frustrated. You are a very good teacher and I will search for you first when looking up new projects! :)

I'm absolute beginner, started last week. I went through so many videos for beginners. They're great but only your video is actually slow and perfectly explained. I finally got it. Thank you soo, so much! Edit: also huge thank you for using thinner yarn. On many videos for beginners thicker one is being used and that's a way different story in beginner's eyes ;)

I love how you slow down when you are teaching. i've seen other videos that start slow then speed up. my flower didn't turn out like yours, it became a very hot mess lol. i won't give up. thank you for your patients in doing this video, greatly appreciate it.

Omg I have made my first flower lol tried 6 times but got there in the end thanks lovely for showing an old dog new tricks x

I watched this video quite a while ago and made this flower, I got inspired and now I have just finished a scarf and blanket. Thanks so much for teaching me how to crochet, you made me the creative crocheter i am today. Thanks

your the only person that goes slow and steady so beginners can understand ( I started yesterday 13/5 and my main goal is to make a granny blanket for now)

My first crochet project that I actually made something!! Thank you!!!

Thank you so much for your clear instructions - I haven’t crocheted in a while and have never done flowers. I used them for clouds on a rainbow I crocheted. 🌼😀

Thank you so much! You're very kind to share this tutorial. It's my first time doing a crochet and I learned it from you! I did my first flower! Yay! Thanks a lot! Other pattern looks easier because your video is so easy to follow.

this treble stitch i literally cannot im going to cry

Your calm gentle voice did it for me! i picked it just like that Previously I visited other sites and after a few minutes I was like forget it! Then I came across yours. My flower came out beautiful. Thank you!!

Thank you for a GREAT tutorial :) I'm left-handed and found your tute extremely easy to follow. Keep up the fantastic tutorials.

I'm only 10 and this video was so helpful and clear

i have never crocheted before and i am just learning so thank you very much and after many tries i finally made something!

I've just picked up crochet to try and make face mask ear savers - I wanted to learn how to make flowers to try spruce them up. Thank you so much for going slow and taking your time to go through the exact step by step! I really can't tell you how amazing this video was to learn from ❤️

this video is amazing!! im so glad you did it for beginners it made it easy to follow along, i made a couple of flowers to put on a hat and it turned out great!

Wow this really is for 'absolute' beginners! I'm a slow learner & have just BARELY learned to basic crochet. I want to knit a baby headband but add a crocheted headband. I really believe I've hit the jackpot in finding you...you are slow & I can see everything well. Thank you thank you for sharing your time & skills! :D

Just attempted this following your video. I'm lefthanded and still found your video easy to follow. I just made my first flower. So pleased with it 😊 thank you 😊

This is the first time as a beginer i didnt mess it up and fail it was because you were super slow and patient and didnt just cut a bunch of parts like some other crochet tutorials i ended up doing it in the first atempt and im so happy

Thanks so much for the lesson. I will go over it again with yarn and hope to accomplish my first flower.

This was the best beginner video I love that u took it slow wich really helped me .and now I can do it all on my own

Before this, I could barely make a square. I made a beautiful one first try. Thank you for going at a slow pace, I hate it when tutorials are in like 2 x speed lol. 10/10 recommended

I tried so many flower tutorials and I could not make any of them, but I found yours and after two tries I was able to make something that looks like a flower! One of the petals is a bit small, I think I pulled a little too much... 😂 but I feel so accomplished! I have never crocheted before and I was able to make it! Thank you so much for this awesome and beginner friendly tutorial! 💛 Well... off to make some more. I bet they'll look better each time I make another!

Oh my word, I only started crocheting three days ago and I just made this flower, thanks to your slow and clear instructions. This was the third video I tried and it's miles ahead of the others in how helpful it is. Thank you :)

At my third attempt, I finally made a flower! I'm so proud. It's a bit misshapen, but, at last, came out recognisable. All previous tries resulted in a pile of knots. It's worth the effort though! I learnt something new! Yay!

Thank you sooo much, I am soo grateful and 7:19 don't think you're patronizing, you actually made it much more better for us beginners by slowing down, and because of YOU, my first ever crochet flower turned out AMAZING, I mean of course not as good as you but because if your teaching it came out amazing, im your newest subscriber 💗🤍

This was so helpful! I'm an absolute beginner and this one was so easy to follow along too, New subscriber!!

Thank you so much for helping me start my crocheting journey!!!

I've been crocheting for about 4 days now (not long at all I know!) this was the first thing I made and I found it really easy to follow ❤️ thank you so much for passing on your skills ❤️

ive watched 3 videos on how to make a magic ring, and all made horrible results. this one is the best tutorial because i learned how to ACTUALLY make a magic ring. thank you

Thank you so much!! Only crocheting for 3 weeks and after failing at MANY videos to make a flower I found you and I DID IT..I was so frustrated and you made it so easy for me. Thank you!!!

Thank you for this lovely, soothing, and almost therapeutic video! You definitely made it easy to understand.

Thank you so much for slowing it down it makes it so much easyer to follow along .I am a beginner and love it when i fine someone who shows you how too. Thanks
