Step-by-Step Instructions

1. The Flower Receptacle (Green Base)

Using green yarn:

  • ch 1, then 6 sc into the ring.
  • Pull the tail tightly to close the ring.
  • Join with sl st to the first sc. (6 sts)

  • Into the next stitch, work 1 dc, ch 1.
  • Repeat [1 dc, ch 1] into each remaining stitch around.
  • Join with sl st into the 4th chain of the initial ch-4.
  • Fasten off and weave in ends. (6 dc stitches separated by 6 ch-1 spaces)

2. The Flower Petals

Using chosen petal color (e.g., white, pink, purple, yellow):

• Join yarn into any ch-1 space from Round 2 of the green base.
• Round 3:
  • ch 2, work a 6-hdc cluster into the same ch-1 space, ch 1.
  • Work [6-hdc cluster, ch 1] into each of the next 5 ch-1 spaces around.
  • Join with sl st to the top of the first cluster. (6 petal clusters)

    • 1 sc, 1 hdc, 1 dc, 1 hdc, 1 sc.
  • Repeat this in all 6 spaces.

  • Fasten off and weave in ends.

3. Assembling Curtain Strands

Create hanging strands with multiple flowers:

• Initial Stem:
  • Tie green yarn to your hook.
  • Work ch 20 (this forms the gap before the first flower).
• First Flower Attachment:
  • Take a finished flower.
  • Insert hook into the top center of its green receptacle.
  • Work 1 sc, ch 1 to attach the flower.
• Securing the Flower:
  • Work 1 sc into each of the next 10 loops/stitches across the green receptacle to anchor the flower firmly.
• Next Segment:
  • Work ch 20 (to form the stem gap between flowers).
• Repeat for Additional Flowers:
  • Pick up the next flower and repeat the attachment sequence:
    [1 sc, 1 ch], then 1 sc into the next 10 stitches.

Continue this pattern until the strand reaches your desired length.

Tips for Hanging & Final Adjustments

1. Attach Strands:
   Tie or secure the top of each strand to invisible adhesive hooks. Distribute evenly along your door frame.
2. Spacing Suggestions:
   Maintain 1.5 to 2 inches between strands for balanced coverage.
3. Optional Embellishments:
   Add beads or extra greenery between the flowers for a fuller, decorative effect.

Customization Notes

Adjust strand lengths for smaller or wider doorways.
Mix and match colors for seasonal themes or specific room aesthetics.
If desired, create shorter strands for layering in window frames instead of doorways.
