Crochet Over Your Ends
Working over yarn tails while crocheting saves hours of weaving in ends later.

Construction Guide
The New Age Daisy Crochet Modern Flower Square is worked entirely in the round, beginning with a simple magic ring and gradually building layers of textured petals before transitioning into a perfectly shaped crochet square.
The centre of the flower uses front post stitches and puff stitches to create a raised, three-dimensional floral effect. Once the flower is complete, additional rounds transform the circular motif into a square using carefully placed corner increases. Each round is completed before fastening off and joining a new colour, making this an excellent project for experimenting with colour combinations.
The finished squares can be joined using your preferred joining method to create blankets, cushions, tote bags, garments, wall hangings, and many other crochet projects.

Frequently Asked Questions
.
Is this pattern suitable for beginners?
The pattern is rated **Intermediate**, but adventurous beginners who are comfortable working in the round and changing colours should be able to complete it using the detailed photo tutorial.
What crochet terms are used?

Can I use different yarn weights?
Yes. You can use most yarn weights, but changing the yarn or hook size will change the finished size of your square and the amount of yarn required.
Can I make a larger blanket?
Absolutely. Simply crochet additional flower squares and join them together to create any blanket size you prefer, from baby blankets to king-size afghans.
Do I have to change colours every round?
