- Chain 3 again, and secure with a sl st to the next eyeball.

- Finish by cutting the yarn.
Bud Pattern
Ring Foundation for Bud
- Make a magic ring or loop and work 6 sc tightly into the ring without tightening the ring immediately.
Tightening and Shaping
- Work around the ring without slip stitching to prevent decreasing stitch count.
- Gradually decrease the number of stitches by skipping stitches as you crochet (e.g., skip every other stitch) to shape the bud.
- Continue decreasing until the bud forms a tapered, rounded shape.
Assembly
- Insert a piece of wire through the center of the flower and bud to create stems.
- Wrap yarn tightly around the middle stem part of the flower.
- Fold the wire in half for firmness.
- Bend the wire ends and secure them without pulling too far down to avoid visibility.
