Round 1: To start, chain 2 stitches and then crochet 11 double crochets (dc) into the central ring.
Round 1 daisy
Round 2: Change to a new color by creating a slip stitch in any space between the double crochets. Chain 2, and in the same space, make 3 treble crochets (tc). To form a petal, insert your hook into the top of the first treble crochet, remove the hook, and pull the last treble crochet through the first loop. Chain 2 to complete the petal. Repeat this process to create a total of 12 petals, separated by ch2 spaces.

Round 1: Secure a new color by making a slip stitch into any ch2 space. Chain 2 (this serves as your first double crochet), then work 2 double crochets, chain 1, and 3 more double crochets into the same corner space to form a corner.

In the subsequent space: Make 3 double crochets, chain 1, and 3 more double crochets to create the next corner.

Continue around: Work 3 double crochets in each of the next two spaces, followed by a corner of 3 double crochets, chain 1, and 3 double crochets. Repeat this pattern until you reach the initial chain-2 space. Finish the round with a slip stitch into the top of the initial chain 2.
If you’d like to proceed, move on to Round 2: Begin by slipping to the corner space and then create a chain-2. Next, work 2 double crochets, chain 1, and 3 more double crochets in the same corner space. Then, continue with 3 double crochets in each of the next 3 spaces, followed by 3 double crochets, chain 1, and 3 double crochets (repeat from * to *). Complete the round by joining with a slip stitch.
