These are easy to make and if you happen to want them as a bracelet or necklace just add or subtract a flower. Simple and pretty! |

Crochet Pattern: Aloha Flower Anklet
Row 1: *ch 7, sl st in 4th ch from hook to form a ring, ch 3, turn, (2 dc, ch 3, sl st, ch 3, 2 dc) in ring just made, repeat from * 3 more times: 4 beginning flowers

Tie a slip knot at top of threads to give a tasseled look.
Cut a 10†(25.5 cm) strand of yarn and fold it in half. On opposite end of anklet, insert hook in one of the end dc and pull middle of yarn strand through. Loop both strands over hook and pull through loop, pulling snug to tighten. Trim strands at both ends of anklet to measure 5†(13cm).
I hope you enjoy this easy summer pattern. If you run into any problems just leave a comment below and I’ll see what I can do!
Super Cute! Thanks for sharing! I can’t wait to try them out!
Very clever. I think it would be cute in variegated yarn too. What a fun summer idea.
Too cute. I pinned this! I’m need to make my daughter one in orange.
I’m kind of confused with the rows? Are you crocheting 4 separate flowers and combining them at the end? Or are they continuous? I start out by making an awesome flower and then confused where to go from there? To row 2?

Hi Karina,
In Row 1 you make the BOTTOM HALF of the four flowers, and when you come back for Row 2, you make the TOP of the flowers.
It can be confusing. Just take it a step at a time and tell me if you have any more problems.

Absolutely love this! Always looking for quick and easy accessories! I will be making one in each of the colors of yarn I have! Thank you! I will send a pic with all my entries as soon as I can!
in row 2 do i have to turn each time i get to the next flower? it doesn’t say so but this seams to me the only way
Hello Dana,
The anklet is created by working only the bottom half of the flowers on row one and the top half of the flowers on row 2. You do not turn after each flower and should finish row 2 at the beginning point of row 1. Does this make sense?
