Flowers trigger happy brain chemicals, so why not grab some yarn and a hook and crochet a bouquet to brighten your day using one of these 9 Free Crochet Flower Patterns?
Yesterday I planted flower seeds and to quote Audrey Hepburn, "to plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow" - it's a commitment to the seasons ahead and the growth and beauty that awaits.
With tiny seeds and rich earth, we can create a colourful array of flowers and foliage, and with a hook and yarn we can also create some everlasting happiness.
Today I'm sharing 9 Free Crochet Flower Patterns which have me inspired to create beautiful blooms for when the spring days arrive. These can be appliqued onto crochet projects, made into garlands, added to seasonal wreaths or simply bunched in your favorite vase to brighten your day.
Grab your supplies and let's crochet a garden of yarn flowers:

Lilac is a symbol of new love or first love. The ancient Greeks believed that lilac was created when Hera turned the innocent and young nymph Syringa into a flower. They feature prominently in literature and art as a way to represent love, purity and innocence.
Lilacs make great cut flowers, lasting up to two weeks, and their strong perfume and beautiful colours will bring you so much joy.
Daisies are those rare flowers that make you smile and embrace your inner child. They represent simplicity, positivity and happiness. In Celtic legend, God would sprinkle daisies over the earth to give parents who had lost a child a reason to smile.
