In this DROPS video we show how to work a Gerbera flower. Worked in the round. With vanilla ch 4 on hook size 4 mm / G/6 and form a ring with 1 sl st in first ch.
ROUND 1: ch 3 (replace 1st dc), 11 dc in ch-ring, switch to off white and finish with 1 sl st in 3rd ch from beg of round = 12 dc.
ROUND 2: ch 1, 1 sc in front loop of first dc, * ch 5, work back in ch-row as follows: 1 sc in 2nd ch from hook, 1 dc in each of the next ch 2, 1 sc in last ch, 1 sl st in front loop on next dc 1st round *. Repeat from *-* 11 more times (= 12 times in total) and finish with 1 sl st in first sc from beg of round = 12 leaves.
ROUND 3: Continue on the back of leaves from previous round. ch 1, 1 sc in back loop of first dc, * ch 7, work back in ch-row as follows: 1 sc in 2nd ch from hook, 1 dc in each of the next ch 4, 1 sc in last ch and 1 sl st in back loop on next dc from 1st round *. Repeat from *-* 11 more times (= 12 times in total) and finish with 1 sl st in first sc from beg of round = 12 leaves.
Fasten off.
