Today, I’d like to add the pattern of this Daffodil Flower Applique to my little (and growing!) collection of crochet flowers.
Around where I live now, there are a lot of daffodils growing on the side of the road or in the fields, and we even have a couple of bushes in our garden.
And I just love these cheerful yellow flowers!
So, I decided to crochet a few daffodils for my spring-themed pillow or wall-hanging. I haven’t made up my mind yet (pillow or wall hanging?) but it will definitely be a home decor project.
I hope you’ll enjoy this daffodil free crochet pattern!
Talking about all the flowers I’ve been making… Take a look at these other ones here on the blog…

Daffodils are my favorite flower! I can hardly wait to try this pattern! Thank you for making it.
Thank you for this pattern, so quick and easy! Marie Curie are having a ‘go yellow’ campaign to raise funds this year & I decided to use up leftover yarn to produce daffodils to help. By March I should have quite a collection 😊.
Love this initiative! Thank you so much for letting me know about it. Here’s the link in case someone else is interested in joining –> https://www.mariecurie.org.uk/get-involved/fundraise/letsgoyellow
Thank you for letting us use your straight forward pattern. I have made a few of these and handed them to friends. They were pleased and wished I had made them more for their vases. Well done girl.
Thanks 🙂
