DIY Rocket Raccoon-Inspired Gift Bag

March 28, 2020 by Shellie Wilson

My family is into comic books and all things superhero and nerdy. We fully embrace what we love. I created a DIY Rocket Raccoon-inspired gift bag for our next family movie night, inspired by our love of Guardians of the Galaxy. While it was fun to surprise my family with a superhero movie night, my ultimate hope was that my son would use the gift bag as an organizing bin for all of his (many) action figures. Any time I can give something two purposes, I’m in!

25+ Easy Crochet Flower Patterns For Beginners

Crochet flowers are one of those wonderfully satisfying little projects that make you feel productive almost instantly. They are quick, pretty, stash-friendly, and just useful enough that you can justify making a whole pile of them while watching telly with a cup of tea beside you.

I love a small crochet project that doesn’t require dragging out half the craft room, and crochet flowers are exactly that. They are perfect for using up those odd little yarn scraps we all swear we are going to organise one day. You can make one in ten minutes, or you can make twenty and suddenly you have the beginnings of a garland, a brooch, a blanket embellishment, a wreath, or a handmade gift topper.

This roundup is all about easy crochet flower patterns for beginners and relaxed weekend makers. You’ll find simple crochet daisies, poppies, marigolds, pansies, flower appliques, floral jewellery, bookmarks, wreaths, and pretty project ideas from CraftGossip, CraftBits, and other lovely crochet designers.

Tips For Using Crochet Flowers

Crochet flowers are wonderfully versatile. You can sew them onto hats, scarves, cardigans, tote bags, baby blankets, cushions, and granny squares. You can also turn them into brooches, hair clips, bookmarks, jewellery, wreaths, garlands, and gift toppers.

Cotton yarn is a great choice if you want crisp, neat petals, while acrylic yarn is perfect for affordable stash-busting flowers. If you want tiny delicate flowers, try crochet thread and a small hook. If you want bold, plush flowers, try thicker yarn and a larger hook.

If your flower curls more than you’d like, try blocking it. A little steam or gentle wet blocking can help the petals sit nicely and make even the simplest crochet flower look more polished.

Final Thoughts

Easy crochet flower patterns are the perfect little project when you want something quick, pretty, and satisfying. Start with a simple daisy or five-petal flower, then move on to poppies, pansies, marigolds, orchids, cherry blossoms, flower squares, and floral accessories.

Before long, you’ll have a whole crochet garden ready to add to gifts, garments, blankets, wreaths, and home decor.
