Shamrock and Rose Crochet Patterns

I just mentioned the other day on on G+/FineCraftGuild to not throw your crochet shamrock brooch away after St. Patrick’s Day. You see, your crochet shamrock pin will continue to look great throughout Spring. All you need to do is add a little flower or rose bud on top of it. See what I mean? Doesn’t it look good?

Little Flower Crochet Pattern

And here is the crochet pattern for my little flower pattern.

With chunky yarn, for which you usually need crochet hook size 8.5:
Create a magic loop
Chain 2, dc 6 and sl st back into the magic loop.
Cast off. Pull the yarn so that an uneven shape appears.
Weave in ends.
With embroidery floss, make 3 lopsided french knots in the center of the flower.
Weave in ends.
Attach the flower in a-symmetrical manner onto the shamrock with a few stitches and simple sewing thread.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
