Slip Stitch (sl st):
The slip stitch joins rounds and completes your flower. It’s an integral part of creating the final look of your crochet flower.
Adding Petals:
To make a beautiful crochet flower, start with the first petal. Use a combination of double crochet and slip stitches to create a lovely shape. Then, work your way around the center, adding as many petals as you desire. You can vary the number of petals to achieve different looks.
