**Mate­ri­als and Tools:**
To get start­ed, gath­er your mate­ri­als. You’ll need:
- Yarn (in dif­fer­ent col­ors)
- Cro­chet hook (appro­pri­ate size for your yarn)
- Yarn nee­dle
- Scis­sors
- Mag­ic ring or mag­ic cir­cle

**Cre­at­ing the Cen­ter:**
Begin with a mag­ic ring, also known as a mag­ic cir­cle. This cre­ates a tight and adjustable cen­ter for your flower. Insert your hook and make your first chain.

**First Round: Flower Cen­ter**
In this round, you’ll work basic stitch­es to form the flower cen­ter. Start with sin­gle cro­chets and slip stitch­es. Fol­low the writ­ten pat­tern or video tuto­r­i­al for guid­ance.

**Adding Flower Petals:**
Once the flower cen­ter is com­plete, it’s time to add the petals. You’ll work on var­i­ous spe­cial stitch­es like clus­ter stitch­es and tre­ble cro­chets to achieve the desired petal shape.

**Expand­ing the Square:**
As you progress, con­tin­ue adding rounds to your flower granny square. Each round will typ­i­cal­ly involve work­ing in chain spaces, back loops, and oth­er spe­cif­ic instruc­tions to cre­ate the desired pat­tern.
