The Daisy Flower Granny Square is a charm­ing addi­tion to any cro­chet enthu­si­ast’s reper­toire, com­bin­ing the clas­sic granny square with the del­i­cate beau­ty of a daisy. Uti­liz­ing basic cro­chet stitch­es such as sin­gle cro­chet stitch­es, dou­ble cro­chet stitch­es, and tre­ble cro­chet stitch­es, this square pat­tern is ide­al for var­i­ous cro­chet projects, includ­ing baby blan­kets, square blan­kets, and even indi­vid­ual items for craft fairs. This arti­cle will guide you through cre­at­ing this delight­ful daisy square using worsted-weight yarn and a cro­chet hook. Whether you are an expe­ri­enced cro­cheter or a begin­ner, this step-by-step tuto­r­i­al will help you mas­ter the Daisy Flower Granny Square.

To begin your Daisy Flower Granny Square, you will need to start with a mag­ic ring, which forms the base for the flower cen­ter. Using yel­low yarn, cre­ate a mag­ic cir­cle and work the first round into it, start­ing with a chain and fol­lowed by sin­gle cro­chet stitch­es. After com­plet­ing the ini­tial round, switch to white yarn for the daisy flower petals. These petals are cre­at­ed using 3‑tr clus­ters, which give them a puffy appear­ance.

To cro­chet 4 tre­ble cro­chet (tr) stitch­es togeth­er, start by yarn­ing over twice and insert­ing your hook into the des­ig­nat­ed stitch. Yarn over again and pull through the stitch, leav­ing you with 4 loops on your hook. Yarn over and pull through the first two loops, then yarn over and pull through the next two loops, leav­ing you with 2 loops on your hook. Repeat this process three more times: yarn over twice, insert the hook into the same or next stitch as per your pat­tern, yarn over and pull through the stitch, yarn over and pull through the first two loops, and then yarn over and pull through the next two loops. Each rep­e­ti­tion will add loop to your hook. After com­plet­ing this process four times, you will have 5 loops on your hook. Final­ly, yarn over and pull through all 5 loops to com­plete the 4 tre­ble cro­chet togeth­er (4 tr tog) stitch, effec­tive­ly decreas­ing the stitch­es and cre­at­ing a uni­fied pat­tern effect.

Once the flower cen­ter and petals are com­plete, you can move on to the tra­di­tion­al granny square back­ground. Choose a back­ground col­or that com­ple­ments your flower cen­ter, and begin work­ing the first round around the flower, using dou­ble cro­chet stitch­es and chain spaces to form the cor­ners. Pay atten­tion to each stitch mark­er to ensure your square stays even. The last cor­ner should con­nect seam­less­ly with the first cor­ner, cre­at­ing a neat square shape.
