Mini Flower Jewelry

On hooks and thread/yarn In making the flowers and leaves for this tutorial I mainly used crochet thread and embroidery floss (DMC) with a 1.7 mm hook (UK-/ USA:5), even for the crochet thread which according to the label required smaller hook. Please bear in mind that smaller hooks work magic with crochet thread and the look of the flowers will be more delicate, sturdier and will appear “tighter” whereas with cotton, the look is softer and not as sturdy. For comparison reasons I also worked with sport yarn and a 3mm hook (UK11) (US 10/3). Stitches: chain (ch), chain space (ch-space), slip stitch (sl st), single crochet (sc), double crochet (dc), double crochet and treble two together dc2tog/tr2tog, (half double crochet (hdc), treble. American terminology used.
