Hello friends,
Many subscribers of my Youtube channel requested me for making Sunflower ccurtain holder. Actually I thought that I made videos for Sunflower, Sunflower bag etc.
But those sunflowers are different, so I made this one which is on high demand. I used Vardhaman Millenium yarn and hook 1.75 mm for flower and 3.5 mm for cord.
PATTERN: With Dark brown yarn make,
R1: in magic loop ch1, sc6, cl (6)
R2: ch1, sc2 in each st, cl (12)
R3: ch1, [sc1, (sc2) in next] 6 times, cl (18)
R4: ch1, [sc2, (sc2) in next] 6 times, cl (24)
R5: ch1, [sc3, (sc2) in next] 6 times, cl (30)
Work next four rounds in back loop of stitch only.
R6: [ sc1 in back loop of 4 sts, sc2 next] 6 times, cl (36)
R7: [ sc1 in back loop of 5 sts, sc2 next] 6 times, cl (42)
R8: sc1 in back loop of each st, cl (42)
R9: same as R8 (42). BO.
Join Mustard color at any unworked front loop of Round 5.
R1: [ch3, sl st in same st, skip 1 st, sl st in next] 18 times, pass in near by st of next round R6.
R2: same as R1. we have 21 ch3-loops.
R3: same as R1 (21 ch3-spaces)
R4: same as R1. Again 21 ch3-loops.
Note that front and back both loops of sts in the last round are unworked. Hence, on all front loops we make petals of type 1 and on back loops of last round we make petals of type 2.
Join yellow yarn at front loop of any stitch.
PETAL TYPE 1: R1: ch1, (sc1 in 3 front loops, ch8, sl st 7 from second ch0 14 times, cl (14 petal bases are made)
R2: In this round we insert wire for stiffness of petal. Sl st on 3 sc-sts, [along 7 sl sts of petal base make, (sc1, hdc1, dc3, hdc1, sc1), in ch1-sp make (sc1, ch1-picot, sc1), on other side again (sc1, hdc1, dc3, hdc1, sc1), sl st 1 in 3 sc-sts] rep 14 times, cl.
Sl st in back loop of corresponding st of last brown round.
R3: [ch10, sl st 9 from second ch, sl st in same st, sc1 in 3 back loop sts of base] 14 times, cl.
R4: Insert wire, [sl st 3 along 9 sl sts make (sc1, hdc1, dc5, hdc1, sc1), in ch1-sp (sc1. ch1-picot, sc1), on other side (sc1, hdc1, dc5, hdc1, sc1)] 14 times, cl, BO.
Now with Green yarn make R1 to R7 but all rounds in stitches and not in back loop.
R8: ch1, sc1 in each st, cl (42), R9: same as R8.
Sepals: ch1,[ skip 1 st, dc2 in front loop of next st, ch3-picot, dc2 in same place, sl st in next] 14 times, cl.
Then stuff some fober in central part and cover it by green sepals we made just now. Sew by tapestry needle. Take care that green yarn should be totally hidden, for that we sew it in between two layers of petals.
LEAF: R1: in magic loop make ch1, sc7, cl.
R2: ch1, [(dc3) in first st, {(dc2) in next}2 times] 2 times, (dc3) in last st, ch1, join at the centre. (17)
R3: ch2, (sc1, hdc1) in one st, (dc3) in next, (dc2) in next 6 sts, (dc3) at corner's st, (dc2) in each of the next 6 sts, (dc3) in next, (hdc1, sc1) in last st, ch2, join by sl st at centre. (50 sts)
R4: insert wire, ch2, sc1, hdc1, (dc2) in each of the next 5 sts, dc1 in next 11 sts, at next corner's st make (dc1, tr1, ch2-picot, tr1, dc1), on other side, dc1 in 11 sts, (dc2) in 5 sts, hdc1, sc1, ch2, sl st at centre. Wrap the remaining yarn to the wire and fix it.
CORD: Taking 2 threads make chains of length nearly 3 ft or as per your requirement. Then make sl st 1 on each st by single thread.
The beautiful curtain holder is ready. Make 2 if you want.

ETC: Enjoy the Creativity.
