A water lily flower pattern close to the real flower itself.
This lovely water lily is my personal design that I use for making my bookmarks and pendants in my shop.

The water lily flower is worked in the round starting from the center, using the front loops followed by the unworked back loops of the next round.

The pattern can be extended to make squares, cushions, blankets. It can also be used as a pendant for jewelry and as a bookmark by sewing a stem at the base.

The yarn used here is the famous crochet thread in the Philippines, Monaco mercerized cotton which is close to Aunt Lydia’s #10 crochet thread.

You can make this bigger by using a bigger thread/ yarn. Gauge is not really important for making this adorable embellishment, it can be easily adjusted for a wider range of sizes by using different sized yarns and hooks.
