 STEP-BY-STEP PATTERN (MATCHES DIAGRAM)

 Round 1 — Center Ring 

Make a magic ring

Work:

20 dc into the ring 

(Join with sl st.)

✔ This creates the full, round center seen in the image.

 Round 2 — Base for Petals (Spokes) 

Ch 3 (counts as dc)

 Work:

 1 dc in each stitch around 

(20 dc total)

 Join with sl st.

✔ This stabilizes the base before creating long petal stitches.

 Round 3 — Long Petal Spokes 

Ch 4 (counts as tr)

 In each stitch: Work 1 tr into the same stitch, ch 1

Repeat around. Join with sl st.

✔ You now have:

  • Long vertical stitches (like diagram lines)

  • Small chain spaces between them

 Round 4 — Petal Formation (Shell Shape) 

In each ch-1 space, work:

 (2 dc, 2 tr, 2 dc)

Repeat around. 

Join with sl st.

✔ This creates:

  • Rounded petal bodies

  • Slight layering like the real image

 Round 5 — Pointed Petal Edges (Important Round) 

In each petal:

 Work:

  • sc in first stitch

  • hdc in next

  • dc in next

  • tr + ch 2 + sl st (picot point) in center

  • dc in next

  • hdc in next

  • sc in last

Repeat for all petals. Join with sl st.

✔ This creates the sharp decorative tips seen in the diagram.
