3D Crochet Flower Granny Square

Pretty pink puffy petals! I’ve come up with a large 3D Crochet Flower Square that would make a gorgeous stand-out piece in a granny square afghan. The flower portion is not as complicated as it may look. The entire pattern is made up of chains, SC, and DC stitches plus I have a detailed photo tutorial in addition to the written pattern. There are so many color combinations you could use! Can’t wait to see what you come up with!
