Switch Things Up

I love experimenting with color palettes to create different moods—try pastel purples for a soft look or deep plums for a dramatic bouquet.

I often change the chain length to make longer or shorter stems; mixing lengths in one bouquet creates a more natural arrangement.

I like to substitute floral wire with wooden skewers for a rustic look; just wrap tightly and secure with hot glue as directed.

I sometimes add a tiny dab of fabric stiffener to the lavender tips if I want the loops to hold a very sculpted shape.

I recommend trying variegated yarn for each spike to give a lively, textured appearance—each spike will look unique.

For a mini keychain version, use a thinner yarn and smaller hook to scale the pattern down to portable sizes.

I enjoy adding beads or tiny felt accents to simulate dew drops or pollen for a whimsical finish.

If you want a posable stem, slip a thinner gauge floral wire inside the wrapped wire and wrap as normal for added structure.

I sometimes make coordinating leaves in different shades of green and attach more than one leaf per stem for fuller foliage.

To create a full arrangement, mix in other crocheted flowers or dried real foliage; I often tie everything together with a matching ribbon for a polished look.

Try gifting single stems in a small box or grouping several in a mason jar—simple presentation changes can make the same stems feel brand new.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Choosing the wrong yarn weight will change the final size and texture of the lavender; use a Weight 4 yarn as recommended to keep the details crisp and pretty. ✗ Not leaving the center hole of the magic ring large enough will prevent the floral wire from fitting through; when closing the MR, make sure the hole stays big enough for your stem. ✗ Skipping the hot glue steps or rushing the glue can cause the lavender to slip on the stem; apply glue carefully and hold pieces in place until fully set. ✗ Forgetting to make the chain length measurement consistent will produce uneven lavender spikes; count chains carefully and measure stems as you go to keep lengths uniform.

FAQs

What size will the finished piece be?

Each lavender stem length will vary depending on your chain length, but using Ch 63 and the recommended materials produces a medium stem about the length of a 15" floral wire before trimming.

Can I use different yarn weights for this pattern?

You can use different yarn weights, but the stitch definition will change; using a thicker yarn will produce chunkier, less detailed lavender while thinner yarn makes smaller, delicate spikes.

Do I need prior crochet experience for this pattern?

This pattern is beginner friendly but assumes familiarity with basic stitches like chain, slip stitch, single crochet, half double crochet, treble, and the magic ring technique.

How long does this project typically take to complete?

Most crocheters can make several stems in a 2-3 hour session depending on speed; individual stems take only a few minutes each once you become familiar with the steps.
