Hi guys welcome back to my channel. My name is Tiffany Hansen with hooks for hope. Thank you so much for joining me today in this video. I'M going to show you how to make the crocheted flower hair clip these things are super cute. Originally, I was going to say that they were meant for toddlers and babies, but then I realized that my own twelve-year-old daughter still wears these in her hair, which she feels like dressing up feeling cutesy and I've also seen adult women wear these in their hair when They are walking around and they look so cute, oh my gosh, so these are super easy to make make up really fast, which makes them giftable sellable, make them for yourself for your child for your grandchild, and they are just a lot of fun if, at any Point in this video you do like what you see. Please push the thumbs up button and if you haven't yet subscribe to my channel that way, you don't miss any of my videos. I released two brand new videos every single week covering a wide range of different crochet projects and you're, really not gon na want to miss out. So let's go ahead and dive right into what materials you're going to need to make. These super cute crochet flower hair clips the materials that you're going to need to make the crochet flower hair clip are a size, 4 weighted yarn. You can really use any size, 4 weighted yarn. I actually made three different examples using three different kinds of size: 4 weighted yarn, the blue flower. Here I used vanna's choice, size 4, weighted yarn. It also made it very similar when I used hobby lobby's. I love this yarn. They made the exact same type of flower, the white flower. Here I used Lily's sugar and cream cotton yarn. I really liked how it changed. The texture of the flower and added a little more detail a little more grit to it, which made it look very farmhouse II that whole rustic kind of look, which is really in really popular. It was very adorable. One just showed that another for weighted yarn. The cotton yarn worked out great for this flower. Also. This third example I used Caron simply soft yarn size for weight, but it turned out smaller the Caron. Simply soft flower just turned out a little bit smaller. I wanted to show you when you use your for weighted yarn, that it might your flower might actually turn out just a tad bit different. It might be a little bit smaller a little bit bigger than what I showed my video and it's all, based on what material you used. Okay, so I'll go ahead and keep one out for an example. You'Re gon na need a crochet hook, size F or five 3.75 millimeter you're going to need a tapestry needle or a yarn needle. I have two examples out right here because, depending on which button you pick, you want to make sure that your yarn needle will be able to fit through the eye holes of the button. Okay, you also need a pair of scissors and a snap clip snap clip. I got this 10 pack from the Dollar Tree. You can get them at any convenience, store really they're super super cheap, but you'll just need one of those. Alright, that is all you will need to make these super cute hair clips. Let'S go ahead and dive right into how to make one alright, so starting with a small tail, we're going to make our Slipknot perfect. Okay, we're gon na chain 30, so one two three four 29 and 30 fabulous okay. So we are going to skip the first five chains and we're going to double crochet in the sixth chain. Okay, so that loop on your crochet hook does not count we're going to start here with our first chain. Then two, three four five and we're going to place our double crochet in the sixth chain, so yarning over, inserting our crochet hook. I put two loops on the top loop on the bottom yarn over pull through yarn over pull through two yarn over pull through two, so those five chains that we just skipped three of those count as our first double crochet and then two of those count. As the two skipped spaces, all right, we're going to skip two spaces; one two: we're going to chain two chains, one two so they're in line with each other and we're going to double crochet in that third chain right. There yarn over pull through two yarn over pull through two perfect and continue that across so chain, two skip two one: two double crochet in the third chain: two skip two double crochet in the third go ahead and continue that across and I will meet you at The very end skip two and double crochet in that very last space, perfect okay, so you will end with something that looks like a ladder shape right there pretty cool. Now we are going to start making the petal parts of our flower so chain, three one. Two three working inside this large gap space. We are going to make three double crochets, so yarn over insert into that large gap. Space yarn over pull through yarn over pull through two yarn over pull through two there's one double crochet, let's make two more one great. So we have our three double crochets there we're going to chain three one, two three and we're going to slip stitch into this gap space. So you insert your crochet hook yarn over pull through and pull all the way through that loop on your hook and what we did is we just made our first petal okay, so we had our chain three. Then three double crochets chain, three slip, stitch petal number! One we're going to put two more of these little mini petals in this same gap space. So this second one is going to be more of a diagonal. This way so chain: 3. 1. 2. 3. Three double crochets one, two three and chain three to close our petal slip, stitch, and that is our second little petal, pretty cute right. Okay, we're going to put one more grouping of three in this same exact space so chain: three: 1: 2. 3. Three double crochets! One two three and three chains: one two three and slip stitch to close that petal great okay, so we originally started on this side of the ladder we wanted to come around to this side of the ladder. So we could start working along this side. So we did one two three different petals in that top corner space: okay, in each space along the side of this ladder, you're going to enter that space with a slip stitch so enter the space with your crochet hook, yarn over pull through and pull all the Way through that loop, that way you slip stitch into that space. It kind of initiates that all right, this petal, is only going in this spot. We'Re going to chain three one: two: three you're going to put four double crochets, so yarn over insert over pull through two pull through two there's one, two: three: four: all in that same little gap; space right there and then chain; three one: two three and slip Stitch in that same space boom, perfect that, oh, that just made the petal and that space alone so that petal right there is for that space. Let'S go ahead and make a petal in the next space, so we're going to slip stitch to enter the space chain. 3, one two, three, four double crochets one, two three four chain: three, one two three and slip stitch in that same space to close that petal perfect, I'm going to do one more space with you and then I'm gon na. Let you go to do it all! Do the other one two three four spaces on your own? Okay, if you get caught up in anything, just refer back to these last two spaces or this space that I'm about to do with you slip stitch into the new space to initiate your petal chain. Three one: two: three for double crochets, one, two, three, four three chains, one two three and slip stitch in the bottom of that same space, just to close your petal, all right guys go ahead and repeat over the next one, two three four spaces and I will Meet you in that last fits pace to go over that corner. Okay, you got this great job, guys. Okay, we are in the very last space here you're going to basically do the exact same thing. We did in the first space where we're going to slip stitch into the space chain. 3. 1. 2. 3. Only put three double crochets: 1. 2, 3 chain: 3. 1, 2, 3 and slip stitch. So there's petal number 1: let's make two more petals chain: 3. Only three double crochets one, two three and three chains: one two three slip stitch in the bottom here and we're going to make one more petal guys chain: 3. 1. 2. 3. Three double crochets, one: two three and three chains slip stitch into the bottom; perfect guys. Okay, we have just finished all of our petals, I'm gon na. Have you grab your scissors you're going to cut off a pretty long tail? Okay, this tail we're going to use to sew all of our petals together to look like the flower, so you want to have a pretty good-sized tail right there, okay, yarn over pull that yarn through that last loop on your crochet hook and pull tight, and that Made that last slip knots to close it up, grab your yarn needle or your tapestry needle and thread that needle perfect okay. So when we get ready to make our flower, it really is just a twisting. So you take your three flower petals here, you fold them in on each other, and then you just keep twisting and twisting and twisting twisting watch your flower petals make sure that each one is visible and that you're not completely overlapping it and boom. There is our flower, isn't it beautiful, so you might be wondering what does it look on the others like on the other side? Well, here's what it looks like on the other side. You have all of these little the other side of that ladder. All kind of bunched up on each other throughout this flower, okay, so one thing that you could do is either take your rose or your flower and flip it over. Take your yarn needle and just sew back and forth, making sure all these little other sides of the ladder get picked up that way they all attach to each other and periodically just keep checking the front of your flower and making sure that nothing shifted in the Process: okay, that's one way that you could make your flower the other way that you could make your flower. It'S just step by step, sewing it and sewing it together. So I prefer that way. Just so I can make sure the petals stay where I want them to stay. Looking at the end with your three petals, I take these two and I kind of fold them in on each other. So now it looks like ones all the top ones. On the bottom take my needle - and I will just attach on that side of the petal, to make sure that those kind of fold in on each other. Okay, then I twist my flower yep, I want it there so I'll. Look at the back insert my yarn needle petal line the other side of that ladder and attach it in so it stays put okay. Then I look at my flower yeah. It'S staying put I'll twist a little bit more okay, yeah! That'S where I want this petal to be so I look at the back. Okay, this is the petal here's, the other part of the ladder just gon na hook, my needle my needle into that part and sew into the back of the flower to attach go to the front twist again, perfect, okay. So these are the two new petals right here. Those are the two new petals come in at the bottom part of the other side of their ladder, so that end of the flower take this part sew it into the flower. Perfect. Okay, look at the front! Everything still looks good. Nothing has shifted twist a little bit more okay. So these are my two new petals turn around we'll go in the bottom part of that ladder. Two new petals touch great twist: the flower a little bit more, Oh see how it almost wanted to like completely cover up. I want to pull it out, so I can see those petals and it looks like that's how I want my flower to end. I'Ve already reached the end of my flower, so when I turn my flower over, I just want to make sure that I attach every other side of the latter part into my flower. So there's one so petal petal other side of ladder, okay, some petals, and in it's one of those things that you really get a feel for it's kind of hard to explain. I'M struggling a little bit to show you exactly where to put the needle and how exactly to sew this together, but I hope that I at least was able to communicate the two different sides of the ladder. One side had the petal one side had this straight line and you're really just sewing the straight line. Pieces together and you're not sewing the petal part, because you want the petal parts to have a 3d effect. You kind of want it to be able to be loosey-goosey. If you were to sew all the petals flat, it would definitely make a more two-dimensional object and we like to have things a little more freely, a little more full of life movement and a 3d effect. Like that, okay, so once we feel like all the petals are secure, nothing is moving we'll go ahead and move on to our button so have fun with the button when you're at the store looking for which button you want to use for the center of your Flower have a lot of fun, checking out all those buttons in the button aisle. They can be really really fun, really really creative. With these flowers, I tend to prefer something a little more black because it pops, but I also want it to have some character. I also am in love with wood buttons, but I'm kind of out of wood buttons at the moment. So I am using some of the materials that I have in my stash in my office right now and they still work. They still look really cute. So I'm gon na pick this button. I'M going to see will my yarn needle pass through the hole and it will perfect. So I don't need to go down a needle size in order to sew on my button, which is great, okay, so attach the button in the center of your flower. Come in through the back into the eye hole great, so all the way through the other side of the flower. Okay, there's two two more to go: I'm going to crisscross perfect and that's it for the button, so that part of the flower is complete. Now, grab your snap clip: okay, start with it open, that's a mistake. I can see some people making and then you end up sewing it closed and it doesn't work. Let'S start with it, open, okay position, the clip on the back of the flower. If you want go ahead and look at the front of the flower and see, is that how I want it to look or do I want to turn it that way, just knowing okay, if this is how I'm putting it on my hair, do I want it To look like that, when you want to shuffle your flower around to really identify where you want the best placement, when you decide on best placement, I go so this is open. I go side I'll go in the middle of the butt of the snap clip and I'll come out the other side. So then I got one side looped in I'm gon na come around. I'M gon na go on the inside out. So now both sides of my clip are secured, but my clip can still move side to side and that can cause a lot of problems. So I'm going to take my needle I'm going to come up the front and attach to the outer most part of that pedal. Okay. So it's the yarn is coming out right there I'm going to take my yarn and come around like that and I'm going to grab the yarn on this side. Push it down a little bit so now I am secure on this side. I'M secure on this side. I'M secure on the top I'm going to actually tie a little knot to make sure that this doesn't shift so holding back some yarn, with my thumb, inserting my needle and to the yarn. Okay. Okay, take these two fingers twist the yarn, so it forms a little X shape. Take your needle underneath and slowly feed it through. That makes a slipknot. So now this side is secure. Now we want to go on to the other side of the clip to hold that clip still, because currently, that clip can still slide, and we do not want it to slide. So we will take our needle and we'll enter into the flower, poke out the other side. Nope I'm running out of yarn. Okay, I'm going to take my needle go through the top and that will secure my hold on that end of the flower and you just tie a knot with your yarn, like we did before in the top here to secure your clip. This is going to be a little tough because I am running out of yarn cool and you make that Slipknot right there on that end. If you have enough yarn, then you would just weave that back into the material into the flour, I'm just. I don't have enough to hang on to my crochet, my little yarn needle. So I'm going to take my crochet hook, I'm going to weave through the yarn. I'M gon na take that little tail and just pull that into the work to secure it. Alright, and then you are done guys. Okay, if you ever wanted to you, could absolute absolutely use like a hot glue gun and get the top of the snap clip, and that will also secure this piece other than that guys close that clip your crochet flower hair clip is complete and it is so Stinkin cute, oh my goodness, I really hope you had fun making these crochet flower hair clips with me today.
