      I have tried making this sunflower more than 10 times, and it does Not turn out. I’ve tried different ways, different hooks, nothing works. Awful.

    I love your crochet patterns. I am having some difficulties with the yellow part of the flower though. I cant quite figure it out. How many of these stitches are in the same stitch. Can you simplify round number 7 for me please.

    Hello Olivia, the hat and booties are adorable. I would like to make them both. I'd like to know how many skeins of yarn I need. I will order them online. Will one skein of each color (green, yellow and brown) be enough? Thank you.

    I have never heard of a double sc. This is in the sunflower pattern. Maybe I’m not reading it right. Do you mean 2 single crochets or 2 double crocheted followed by a single? I am not a beginner crocheted but I feel like one now. Can you help me? DD
