   chain 6. Go back into the first chain and work a dc and then chain 2. Do this 7 times (dc, chain 2) all into the first chain. You should have 8 spokes. Join up the circle with a sl st into the third chain on the left (ie the third chain of the first spoke). Chain 1.

   Now you want to work a (sc, ch 1, 2 dc, ch 1, sc) all into one of the arches you have created. This is what makes the petals. Do this over all 8 arches and you have the first flower. Join with a sl st to the first sc on the first petal.

   Turn the flower over. With the next colour (red) make a slip knot and put the crochet hook under a pink spoke and pull the red wool through. You now have 2 stitches on your hook, pull the hook through to make one. Chain 6 and work a dc on the next spoke (in the same way as first spoke), chain 3. Repeat this dc, chain 3 on each spoke. Then make a sl st into the third chain of the first row that you did. Chain 1. Turn the whole thing over to the right side. Pull the pink petals slightly forward and and work (sc, chain 1, 3 dc, chain 1, sc) over each arch. Join with a sl st into the first sc. Cast off.
