1. Introduction: Hi, everyone, and welcome to this class. I'm so glad you are here. In this class, we will be making a beautiful crochet flower kitchen, a small fun project that is perfect for beginners, but also enjoyable if you already know a bit of crochet. Here's what you can expect from this class. In the first lesson, I will walk you through all the materials you will need for this project. In the second lesson, we will make the center of the flower step by step using basic stitches and working in the round. In the third lesson, we will create the petals of the flour and also add some stuffing inside to give the flower a nice puffy do. In the fourth lesson, we will crochet a leaf to add an extra touch of detail. Finally, in the fifth lesson, we will assemble everything together and attach the metal parts to turn it into a kitchen. By the end, you will have your own handmade crochet flower kitchen that you can use yourself give to a friend or even sell if you would like to start a little crochet business. This class is designed with Wigners in mind, so I will explain each step slowly and clearly. All you need is some yarn, a crochet hook, and a few simple tools. So grab your yarn and hook, and let's get started with lesson one, where we will go over to materials you will need. 2. Materials Needed for Keychain: This lesson, I will walk you through all the materials you will need to make this crochet flower kitchen. We will need three colors of medium weight yarn, brown for the center of the flour, yellow for the petals, and green for the leaf. I do not have medium weight yarn in green color, so I will be using two strands of this lightweight yarn to get a similar thickness. I will be using a 1.9 MM crochet hook for this project. The reason for choosing such a small hook is that it helps make the stitches cleaner, tighter and more compact. Since this flower will be used as a kitchen, we don't want large gaps between stitches. Otherwise, the stuffing might show through, and the flour won't hold its shape well. Apart from this, we will need a casar, some cotton stuffing, just a little to fill the flower center, a kitchen ring, a jumper ring, and applier to attach everything. Now that we have everything ready, let's start by making the cinqor of our flour. 3. Making Centre of Flower: This lesson, we are going to make the center of the flour. We will start with the brown yarn. So begin by making a magic ring. In one to secure the ring. Into the ring, make six single crochet. So that's one, two, three, four, five and six. Now pull the yantil to close the ring tightly. Now we are going to join it with a slip stitch into the first single crochet. So insert the hook into this first single crochet. Yarn over and pull through the stitch and the loop on the hook. Now to begin the second round, chain one, we are going to make two single crochet into each of these stitches. So make a single crochet into the following stitch. Now make another single crochet into the same stitch. Continue to make two single crochet in each stitch around that will give us 12 stitches. So here I have reached to the end, and I'm going to join it with a slip stitch into this first single crochet. So insert the hook, yarn over and pull through the stitch and the loop on the hook. Our second round has been completed. Now, to begin the third round, in one, make a single crochet into this first stitch. Then make two single crochet into the following stitch. That's the first single crochet and make another one into the same stitch. Then make a single crochet into the next stitch. Again, make two single crochet into the next stitch. Repeat this pattern around. At the end, we will have 18 stitches. Now, join with a slip stitch into this first single crochet. Inside the hook, yarn over and pull through the stitch and loop on the hook for the fourth round chain one. For this round, we will follow this pattern. So make one single crochet in each of the next two stitches. Then two single crochet into the following stitch. That's one. And two, make a single crochet in each of the next two stitches. Repeat the same pattern around. At the end, we will have 24 stitches. H Now join with a slip stitch into this first stitch. So inside the hook, yarn over and pull through the stitch and the loop on the hook. Our center of the floor is ready. Now we are going to cut this yarn. So take the casar and cut it by leaving a few centimeter tail. Pull this loop all the way through. Now repeat the exact same steps with green ion to make a second circle. So in the end, we will have one brown circle and one green circle. In the next lesson, we will begin making the petals of our flour. 4. Making Petals of Flower: This lesson, we are going to begin the petals of the flour. So let's do this. Place the brown and green circles together with their backs facing each other. Insert your hook through any stitch of both circles. Make sure to insert the hook under both loops of each stitch. Now take the yellow yarn, place it on the hook and pull it through these stitches. Gene two. That's one pin two. Make a double crochet into the same stitch, yarn over, insert the hook into the same stitch. Yarn over and pull through. Yarn over and pull through two loops. Yarn over and pull through two loops. Then make a triple crochet into that same stitch. Can you and make a slip stitch into these two loops inside the hook under these loops, yarn over and pull through all the loops on the hook. Move to the next stage of both circles and make a treble crochet. So yarn over twice, insert the hook into the very next stage of both circles. Yarn over and pull through. Yarn over and pull through two loops. Yarn over and pull through two loops, yarn over once more and pull through the remaining two loops. Then make a double crochet into this same stitch. And finally, make a slip stitch into the very next statch of both circles. Insert the hook, yarn over and pull through the stitches and the loop on the hook. This completes our first petal. Now let's begin the second petal. Chain two, that's one and two, make a double crochet into the same stitch. Then make a treble crochet into this same stitch. So yarn over twice, insert the hook, yarn over and pull through. Yarn over and pull through two loops, yarn over and pull through two loops, yarn over once more, and pull through two loops. Then chain two Make a slip stitch into these two loops. Inside the hook under both these loops, yarn over and pull through all the loops on the hook. Make a treble crochet into the next stitch of both circles. Then make a double crochet into that same stitch. And finally, a slip stitch into the next stage of both circles. I have now completed two petals at the ends between the two circles like this and continue working the petals in the same way by following this pattern. Once you have completed eight to nine petals, pause to fill the inside of the circles with some cotton stuffing. This will give the flower a nice puffy shape. So take a small amount of cotton and gently insert it between the two circles like this. Now continue making petals until you have 12 petals in total. Here I have completed 12 petals. Now finish this by slip stretching into the first chain of this first petal. So insert the hook, yarn over and pull through the chain and the loop on the hook. Now we are going to cut this yarn. So take the casar and cut this. Pull this loop all the way through to secure it. Now insert the hook into that same stitch from the back and pull the yarn end to the back. Now I'm going to weave this yarn end, so insert the hook into any stitch and pull this yarn through to weave it. You can also use a yarn needle for weaving. So I have weaved an completely, and our flour is ready. In the next lesson, we will make a leaf for this. 5. Making a Leaf for Keychain: This lesson, we are going to make a leaf using green yarn. Since I don't have medium weight yarn, I will be using two strands of lightweight yarn held together. So start with a slip note. Now make a foundation chain of eight chins. So that's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and eight. We have made eight chains. Now we are going to skip this very first chain and make a single crochet into the second chain from the hook. But we will make single crochet into the back loop of the chain. Insert the hook, yarn over and pull through, yarn over and pull through both loops on the hook. Continue making single crochet across all the chains. Now for the leaf shape, chain one, and turn. Make a half double crochet into this very first stitch. So yarn over, insert the hook, yarn over and pull through, yarn over and pull through all three loops. Then make a double crochet into this same stitch. In the next stitch, we are going to make a treble crochet. Then make a double crochet into that same stitch. Next, make a double crochet into each of the next two stitches. So that is the double crochet in the first stache. Then make a double crochet in the following stitch. Then we are going to make a half double crochet into the next stitch. So that is the half double crochet and then a single crochet into the following stitch. In the last stitch, make two single crochet. So that is the first single crochet and one more into the same stitch. Now chain one and slip stitch into these two loops. Insert the hook under these loops, yarn over and pull through all the loops on the hook. Now work around the other side of the chain. Make two single crochets into this very first stitch. That's one. And you make a single crochet into the next stitch. In the next stitch, make a half double crochet. Then make double crochet into the next two stitches. That's a double crochet in one stitch. Then make a double crochet in the following stitch. Now make a double crochet into the next stitch. And a triple crochet into that same stitch. Then make a double crochet into the next stitch. And a half double crochet into that same stitch. Now join it with a slip stitch into the chain that we did in the beginning of this round. So insert the hook, yarn over and pull through the chain and the loop on the hook. So we have completed the leaf. Now let's cut this yarn. I so cut this and pull this loop all the way through. Now we are going to weave in these yarn ends. So I have weaved yarn end completely, and my leaf is ready. In the next lesson, we will assemble our kitchen. 6. Assembling the Keychian: Now that we have completed our flower and leaf, it's time to put everything together and turn it into a kitchen. For this step, you will need your finished crochet flower, the crochet leaf, a kitchen ring, a jumper ring, and a plier to help with attaching the metal parts. Let's start with the leaf. Take the jumper ring and open it slightly using your plier. Insert it through one of the stitches at the top of your leaf. This will give the leaf a little loop, so we can attach it to the kitchen ring ladder. Next, let's attach the flour. Start by opening the small ring that is attached to the kitchen ring. Use your plier, to gently twist it open, not pull it apart. Once it is open, insert the ring through one of the stitches on the floor. Choose a stitch close to the top so that the flour will hang evenly when the kitchen is used. After inserting it, carefully close the ring back with the player, making sure it is tightly secured. Now connect the leaf to the kitchen ring. Use the jumper ring we added earlier to easily hook the leaf onto the kitchen ring. Adjust the positioning, so both pieces hang nicely together. And that's it. Your crochet floor kitchen is complete. 7. Outro: Now that you have learned how to make the flower, the leaf and how to assemble them into a kitchen, it's time for your class project. For this project, I would love for you to make your own crochet flower kitchen. You can follow along using the same colors I used in the class, but I really encourage you to experiment with colors of your choice. For example, go for bright bold colors to make a cheerful kitchen. Or choose soft pastel shades for a more delicate look. You can also get creative with the design. For example, instead of one flower, make two flowers and attach them both to the kitchen or add two leaves instead of one to make it look fuller. Once your kitchen is ready, take a picture of your project and upload it to the project gallery here. Don't worry about making it perfect. The goal is to practice your stitches and have fun with the process. I'm really excited to see the beautiful color combinations and creative variations you come up with.
