Five-Petal Knitted Flower

This charming knitted flower is made from five individually knit petals, shaped with simple increases and decreases and gathered at the base for a dimensional finish. The petals are sewn together to form a classic floral motif, with the option to add a stitched or button center.

Perfect as an appliqué, embellishment, or decorative accent, this pattern is highly adaptable. Change yarn weight or needle size to create flowers ranging from delicate to bold. Use them on hats, bags, garments, accessories, or home décor projects.

Each petal is worked flat and finished individually before assembly. The pattern is suitable for confident beginners and experienced knitters alike.

Skills used: knit and purl, kfb/pfb increases, k2tog/p2tog decreases, basic finishing and seaming.

A small, satisfying project that’s quick to knit and easy to customize.
