How to crochet a Strawberry plant

A pretty and useful seedling that produces its sweet and juicy fruit after letting us admire its white and delicate flowers.

I was inspired to make this crochet strawberry seedling

to the real ones I have in the garden.

To make it happen, prepare the fruit with the small strawberry and their glasses, the flower, the leaves and the stem that will be assembled together.

Explanation of the strawberry

Start 4 little chains and in the first make 14 double crochet (tot.15).

2-3 and 4 round 30 double crochet.

Now cut a piece of galvanized iron wire that will allow us to create a small shank of union with the main stem and at the center wrap a bit of cotton wool or cotton wool, twisting it on itself creating the small shank and blocking the wadding. inside the strawberry and add a bit of cotton wool at each subsequent turn to give it the right padding.

5 round 2 double crochet. 2 double crochet closed together for the whole lap

6 round 1 double crochet. 2 double crochet closed together for the whole ride

7 lap 2 double crochet closed together for the whole lap

8 lap with 2-3 slip stitch close the work

Explanation of the glass

Start 5 little chains close in the round and inside make 8 little chains

In these 8 little chains make: 3 single crochet, 4 half double crochet for a total of 5 points

Explanation of the flower

Start 6 little chains and close in the round and inside do:

4 little chains, 4 triple crochet, 4 little chains for a total of 5 petals

 The yellow pistil is obtained by twisting the cotton around a point of the plasticized iron wire, which will be the main stem then cut it to the length you need for your creation.

Give it the right thickness and help yourself with a pliers to bend the wire and block the cotton.

Now insert inside the flower and pulling it a little 'make sure it does not come out.

Explanation of the leaf

To make the leaves use the same procedure that I used to create the leaves of the little rose. The leaves are grouped to 3 through the galvanized iron wire that keeps them together, cut it 3 times the turn of a leaf plus the piece that will join the main stem.

Start 20 little chains and make 3 single crochet, 3 half double crochet, 7 double crochet, 3 half double crochet and 3 single crochet.

Redo equal from the other side

2 rounds and the same as the previous one with 3 extra increases at the 7 double crochet below.

Lay the galvanized wire and work the single crochet all around.

Continue like this until you get the group of 3 joined leaves.

Explanation of the small green strawberry

Start 4 little chains and on the first make 9 double crochet (tot. 10)

1 round 10 single crochet.

2 round 2 double crochet closed together for the whole lap

now insert the galvanized wire with little cotton wool as you did previously for the strawberry.

3 lap with 2 -3 slip stitch to close the job.

Explanation of the goblet of the small green strawberry

Start 5 little chains close in a circle and inside:

5 little chains in these ways: 2 single crochet, 2 half double crochet for a total of 5 points.

Now that you have done everything you just have to assemble the various pieces, then place the glasses in the small stems in both the big strawberry and small and in these small stalks work around the chains to cover it with cotton.Col iron wire advancing fasten to the main stem, where first of all you have inserted the flower on the top and of course also the leaves.

Once you have connected everything to the main stem, you will work around the chains to cover it with cotton.

I hope I have explained everything at best and have given you an idea.

At the next creation hello everyone.
