very easy sunflower model explanation online tutorial

Certainly! Here’s an explanation of a simple sunflower crochet motif. While I cannot provide an online tutorial directly, I can explain the steps involved in creating a sunflower motif. You can then search for online tutorials using the provided information to get a visual demonstration.

Materials you’ll need:

Crochet hook (appropriate size for your yarn)

Yarn in yellow (for the petals), brown (for the center), and green (for the leaves and stem)

Scissors

Yarn needle

Instructions:

1. Petals:

Start with yellow yarn and make a slipknot. Chain 4 and join with a slip stitch to form a ring.

Chain 3 (acts as the first double crochet). Work 9 more double crochets into the ring. Slip stitch into the third chain of the beginning chain-3 to join the round. (You should have a total of 10 double crochets)

Chain 3, skip the next stitch, slip stitch in the next stitch. Repeat this pattern (between * symbols) around. You should have 5 chain-3 loops.

Fasten off and cut the yarn, leaving a long tail. Make multiple petals (usually 8-12) following the same steps.

2. Center:

Switch to brown yarn.

Start with a magic ring (or alternative method) and chain 1.

Work 8 single crochets into the ring. Pull the ring tight to close the hole.

Slip stitch into the first single crochet to join the round.

Chain 4, slip stitch in the next single crochet. Repeat this pattern (between * symbols) around. You should have 8 chain-4 loops.

Fasten off and cut the yarn, leaving a long tail.

3. Leaves:

Switch to green yarn.

Chain 12 (or any desired length for the leaves).

Starting from the second chain from the hook, work single crochets in each chain. When you reach the end, work 2 single crochets in the last chain.

Rotate your work to the other side of the foundation chain and continue working single crochets in each chain. When you reach the end, work 2 single crochets in the last chain.

Fasten off and cut the yarn, leaving a long tail.

4. Assembly:

Take one petal and position it on top of the center. Thread the yarn needle with the long tail of the petal and sew it onto the center, making sure to catch both layers of the petal and the center. Repeat this step for all the petals.

To attach the leaves, position them at the base of the flower and sew them onto the flower using the long tail of the leaves.

That’s it! You’ve completed your sunflower motif. Remember to adjust the size and number of petals, as well as the length of the leaves, according to your preference.
