A mirror (optional, for testing placements)

Step 1: Making the Vine and Leaves

Begin the Vine:
- Use green yarn to create a slip knot.
- Chain 10 stitches.
Creating the Small Leaf:
- Make a single crochet in the second stitch from the hook.
- Double crochet in the next stitch.
- Single crochet in the next stitch.
- Slip stitch at the base of the leaf to finish.
Creating the Large Leaf:
- Chain 8, then:
  - Single crochet.
  - Double crochet in the next stitch.
  - Treble crochet in the next stitch. (Yarn over twice before starting this.)
  - Double crochet in the next stitch.
  - Single crochet at the end. Slip stitch at the base of the leaf to secure it.
Connecting Leaves to the Vine:
- Chain 12 (or as desired).
- Alternate between small and large leaves at random intervals. Use chain lengths of 8–16 stitches between leaves or clusters.
- Continue until the vine reaches your desired length. Candice recommends keeping the vine long to allow for dangling tassels.

Step 2: Crocheting the Flowers

Here are the five flower patterns to add decorative charm to your crown:

Flower 1: Simple Five-Petal

Create a slip knot and chain 4.
Slip stitch into the first chain to form a loop.
Chain 3, make a double crochet into the center, then chain 3, and slip stitch into the loop (this forms the first petal).
Repeat the process to create a total of five petals.
Tie off with a knot.

2: Layered Petals

Chain 5 and slip stitch into the first chain to create a space.
Chain 1, then make 12 single crochets into the loop.
Switch colors and begin petals by chaining 4, making a treble crochet, chaining 4, and slip stitching into the same stitch.
Continue around the circle, adding petals to all available stitches.

Flower 3: Larger Petals

Chain 5 and slip stitch into the first chain.
Chain 4, make two treble crochets into the center, chain 4, and slip stitch into the loop (this forms a larger petal).
Repeat to form five total petals around the loop.

4: Knobbly Petals

Chain 5 and slip stitch into the first chain.
Chain 2, make 12 double crochets into the center, then tie off with a new color.
For each stitch, create a pattern by making a single crochet, treble crochet, and another single crochet into the same space.
This creates a textured “knobbly” petal around the flower.

Flower 5: Easiest Design (Optional Petal Count)

Chain 4 and slip stitch into the first chain to form a loop.
For each petal: Chain 8, slip stitch into the loop.
Repeat until you have 5–7 petals, depending on your preference.

Step 3: Assembling the Crown

Choose flowers for the center or focal point to align with your preference.
Arrange flowers along the vine, leaving tails long for easy attachment.
Use a double knot to secure flowers to the vine.
Test placement with a mirror, adjusting as needed for balance and symmetry.
Trim or neatly tuck loose ends.
