How to crochet a Yellow Jasmine

A cascade of yellow flowers with a summer fragrance in the middle of winter, is the one that gives us the yellow jasmine. It seems a prodigy of mother nature to see among the snow-covered branches the bright yellow of Jasmine. In many places it is used as a ground cover plant to create beautiful borders.

This is the second flower that is part of the composition of winter flowers.
Needed: cotton number 20 - 1.0 mm crochet hook - scissors - needle - 0.45 galvanized iron wire - plasticized iron wire - pliers.

To make the crochet yellow jasmine it is necessary to prepare the branch, the flower, the pistil, the bud and the chalice.

For the main branch you will cut a piece of plasticized wire of about 40 cm and in this will be connected the twigs of about 20 cm that we will do with the galvanized wire. Once cut, fold it in half and twist on itself except for about 2 cm on each side which will then be used to fasten it to the main branch. These twigs should be covered with cotton by working around the chains and also the main branch after the secondary branches have been connected. The tips will be curved (let us help with a pair of pliers) and in what will be the top of the branch we will sew over a small dome to cover the curvature of the plasticized wire.
