Blackberry Flower - Free Crochet Pattern

These cute crochet blackberry flowers are a great way to decorate your projects. You can also use other colors and create the flowers of your choice, for example working with pinks  and purples you will transform it into a plum flower.

Blackberry Flower - Free Crochet Pattern


Materials needed:
- sport weight yarn in white and green (or other yarn weight and appropriated hook size) 
- 4,5 mm crochet hook
- tapestry needle to sew in the ends.

Stitches and abbreviations used:

( US Terms)
ch: chain

sc: single crochet

sl st: slip stitch

tr: triple crochet

yo: yarn over

Special stitch used:

tr cluster or tr4tog or triple 4 together
: [yo twice, insert hook in the stitch indicated in the pattern, draw loop through, (yo, draw through 2 loops, leaving the next loops on hook)*2 times]*4 times. You have 5 loops on the hook; yo, draw through all 5 loops on the hook.

( In other words, you will make 4 unfinished treble crochet, leaving each time the last loop on hook, so at the end you'll have 5 loops on hook; yo, draw through all 5 loops on the hook.)

I didn't found a video for the tr4tog, but to see how to make a tr cluster, here is a video made by Teresa Richardson demonstrating how to join 3 triple crochet together.
