These easy and free sunflower crochet patterns are perfect projects to start for the summer! There is so much you can do with these sunflowers: add them to a hat, turn them into a bookmark, make a bunch of them into granny squares for a cozy blanket, and so much more!
Crochet flowers are also great projects for beginners. First of all, they’re fairly simple: a dark center with yellow petals, all worked in the round. This means that they require just 2 colors and a handful of stitches. Once you’ve gotten the hang of working in the round, you’ll be making sunflowers by the dozen! Second, they’re super versatile! You can make a flower and add magnets, a hair clip, or a pin. Or, you can continue crocheting to create a granny square, pillow, or crossbody bag! Your options are endless.
