flower embellishment-free crochet pattern

There is nothing more fun than making a bunch of little crocheted flowers. Here is a simple flower that can be used as an embellishment on hats, purses, or anything else you like.  You can attach a pin backing to make a brooch or an elastic to make a cute hair tie.  You can even use them to embellish gift packages, decorate for parties or just around the house.  They can also be attached to the Easy & Cute Crocheted Headband or the Mini Brim Hat for an extra awesome accessory.
