🌷 How to Crochet the Tulip (Step-by-Step Overview)
The tulip is worked in joined rounds.
Round Structure
- Start with a magic ring
- Increase gradually to 24 stitches
- Work 12 straight rounds
- Stuff and shape
- Sew two top points together
The stitch progression:
Round 1 → 6 sc
Round 2 → 12 sc
Round 3 → 18 sc
Round 4 → 24 sc
Rounds 5–16 → 24 sc each round
This structure makes the tulip body firm and evenly shaped.
🍃 How to Crochet the Leaf
The leaf is worked flat using:
- sc
- hdc
- dc
You’ll crochet along one side of the foundation chain, shape the tip with 3 sc in one stitch, then work down the opposite side.
This creates a soft, natural tulip leaf shape.
Optional: Light steam shaping gives it a clean, polished finish.
🔗 Attaching the Keychain Clip
After finishing the leaf:
- Attach yarn to the keychain clip
- Chain desired length (example: ch 19)
- Secure with sc
- Thread through the leaf
- Tie a secure inner knot
This method keeps the keychain durable and long-lasting.
