The Retro Flower Wall Hanging Crochet Pattern

Hi Friends!

I think it is safe to say that spring is springing! The flowers are blooming, the birds are singing and my allergies are debilitating. Other than the horrific allergies, spring is such a beautiful season. It literally feels that the earth is waking back up from a long winters nap and it ready to start living again.

I don’t know about you but when I hear the word spring the first thing that comes to mind is flowers. Blooming flowers are pretty much the universal sign that spring is on its way So it only felt right that the first pattern release of spring would include flowers. But not just any flowers. Lets make the retro!

Introducing The Retro Flowers Wall Hanging! This pattern is beginner friendly and works up fairly quickly. Which if you’ve been here for a while would know that this pleases my lazy girl heart oh so much, lol. Alright, I will stop chatting so you guys can get to enjoying the pattern.

Happy Crocheting!

Materials

*4.50mm Crochet Hook

Weight 4 Worsted Weight Yarn (yarn I used is listed below)

*Yarn Needle

*Scissors

Wooden Branch or Dowel Rod

*Hand Steamer (optional)

Yarn Choice

For most of my wall hanging patterns I prefer to use a thicker and tighter spun worsted weight yarn. I feel like it gives a lot more definition to the piece and details tend to stand out more. I really don’t focus too much on the texture of the yarn because I steam every single one of my wall hangings, which softens the piece and makes it more flexible and flowy. This is especially helpful for tighter crocheters. The brands I tend to gravitate the most towards are Red Heart Super Saver, Loops & Threads Impeccable and We Crochet Brava Worsted.

For this wall hanging I used the following yarn:

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Skylight-approx. 120 yards

-Loops & Threads Impeccable in Aran-approx. 120 yards

Stitch Key (US Terms)

Ch = Chain

St/sts = Stitch(es)

Sc = Single Crochet

Color Abbreviations

S = Skylight

A = Aran

Special Notes

-The wall hanging is worked in rows.

-The wall hanging is worked from the bottom up.

-The 1st st of each row should be placed into the same stitch as the turning chain.

-The turning chain does not count as the 1st stitch of the row.

-The pattern is written as: # of single crochet stitches (color abbreviation), example: 8 (A) means 8 sc in Aran.

-The odd rows are the right side rows. Even rows will be the wrong side.

Dimensions: 12.5 inches wide x 11.5 inches long (not including fringe)

Gauge: 16 sts x 19 rows = 4 inch square worked in single crochet.

Attaching the Fringe

To create the fringe cut 12 inch pieces of yarn in Aran/Skylight. You will need 3 strands to complete 1 fringe. (Attach Skylight under the Aran square and Aran under the Skylight Square, if you would like to replicate the fringe from the photo)

To attach the fringe, grab 3 strands of yarn in Aran/Skylight. With a crochet hook, push the hook through the far left foundation chain. Fold the 3 strands of yarn in half, looping the middle of the strands onto the crochet hook.

Fold the strands through the loop.

Tighten to create the fringe.

Repeat for every other foundation chain.

Hanging the Project

To attach the project to a dowel rod or tree branch; using a yarn needle, weave the tail over the dowel/branch and back under into the 1st stitch on the top of the wall hanging.

Repeat for each stitch on top of the wall hanging.

Knot off and weave in your ends.

To hang the project, drill 2 small holes on either side of the branch/dowel. Thread through both holes with cotton yarn and knot off both ends. Trim the excess yarn. (Feel free to use your preferred method of hanging the project)

ENJOY!
