Crochet Aka Flower Top

Materials:

Cotton yarn (8x4)
Crochet hook, 4mm (even though it's not the suggested size for this type of yarn)
Scissors

Creating the Sleeve (Flower Pattern):

Chain 77 stitches to start.
Add two extra chains to help start the first row.
Begin the first row with half double crochets all the way through, ending with 77 stitches.
Chain two and turn your work for row two.

For Row Two:

Start with three double crochets.
Chain eight, skip eight stitches at the bottom, and do five single crochets.
Chain eight again, skip eight, and do four double crochets to create half a flower.
Continue repeating the pattern (chain eight, skip eight, five single crochets, chain eight, and four double crochets) until the end of the row.

Row Three:

Chain two, turn your work.
Start with a double crochet, chain one, and skip one stitch.
Perform three double crochets in the big gap, followed by chaining six.
Do three single crochets in the middle of the five single crochets from the previous row.
Continue the pattern (chain six, three double crochets in one big gap, and so on) until the end of the row.

Row Four:

Chain three, turn your work, and begin with a triple crochet.
Chain four, perform a double crochet on the last double crochet from the previous row, and then do three double crochets in the next big gap.
Chain four and do a triple crochet in the middle of single crochets.
Continue the pattern (chain four, three double crochets in the big gap, one double crochet after the gap, etc.) until the end of the row.
Continue following the pattern outlined in the video to add more rows and create the full flower pattern.

Connecting the Panels:

Lay out all panels (sleeves, front, and back) on the floor.
Connect the front and back panels at the shoulder, leaving about two flowers open for the neck area.
Connect the sleeves at the sides, ensuring to align the center correctly.
Use a simple slip stitch to join the parts.
