THE SIMPLEST CROCHET POPPY (just 2 rounds)
This pattern only uses two rounds. It is quick to make and one of the simplest patterns I’ve found. I use US terms. For those who are used to UK terms here is the conversion. A stitch guide is at the end, but you can also use youtube videos.
With Black (US Terms) Make a slip knot and ch 2 Into the first ch: make 7 sc Join with sl st into your first sc. This completes the circle (making 8 sc stitches in your 1st round) Cut the yarn and pull through, leaving the tail With Red Secure the red yarn by making a sl st into the next stitch along from where you ended the black. Ch 3, 3 trc into the same stitch (where you secured the red yarn) In the next stitch along: 3 trc, ch3, sl st This completes your first petal (ch3, 3trc, 3trc, ch3) *Now sl st into next stitch and you are ready to begin the second petal Ch3, 3 trc into the same stitch 3 trc, ch3 and sl st into the next stitch and your second petal is done.+ Repeat * to + two more times to complete 4 petals Cut the yarn and pull through. Your tail will be sitting on the front of the petal. Using your hook pull the red tail through to the back and tie off with the black tail, which will tighten up the black circle as well. Leave all four tails hanging from the back. They will be used to secure the petal to a stem.
