Use two or three colors of any yarn to crochet this pretty dogwood flower. The petals are crocheted, the center is made by winding yarn around a strip of cardboard and tying the loops.

The web page associated with this design features a photo-tutorial. You will need the written instructions from the book to follow along.

The Dogwood flower was featured in a scarf in the Spring 2015 issue of Interweave Crochet--Dogwood Scarf.
