Step 1: Crochet the Flower Center

1. Start with Yellow Yarn: Begin with a magic circle or foundation chain of four stitches.
2. Round 1: Work six single crochets (sc) into the magic circle or ring and join with a slip stitch to close the round.
3. Fasten Off: Cut the yarn, leaving a small tail.

Center Tip: You can make the center more realistic by using small popcorn stitches for added texture.

Step 2: Crochet the Red Petals

1. Attach Red Yarn: Join red yarn to any stitch in the flower center.
2. Petal Formation:
   • Round 1: Chain five stitches, then work one double crochet (dc) into the second chain from the hook, one half-double crochet (hdc) into the next stitch, and finish with a single crochet (sc).
   • Slip Stitch: Slip stitch back into the flower center to anchor the petal.
3. Repeat: Repeat this petal pattern around the center to create six petals.
4. Fasten Off: Cut the yarn and weave in ends.

Petal Tip: Use two shades of red for a more lifelike look, with a darker red as the base and a lighter red on top.

Step 3: Add Green Leaves

1. Attach Green Yarn: Join green yarn to the back of the flower center.
2. Leaf Formation:
   • Round 1: Chain six stitches, work one dc into the second chain from the hook, one half-double crochet (hdc) into the next, followed by two single crochets (sc).
   • Slip Stitch: Slip stitch into the flower center to complete the leaf.
3. Repeat: Make six leaves around the back of the flower.
4. Optional: Add a second layer of leaves by making another round with larger leaves to add fullness.

Leaf Tip: Block or lightly starch the leaves to help them hold their shape and add structure to the flower.
