One Round Shamrock
By Jennifer Dickerson

Materials:

Note: you can use any yarn you like, just check the yarn label for the hook recommendation.

For the shamrocks as shown:

• H (5.0 mm) hook
• Green yarn (darker green is Lion Brand Vanna's Choice in "Kelly Green" and the lighter one is Red Heart Super Saver in "Spring Green"
• Tapestry needle

Sizing:

• Shamrocks shown are 1.5 inches wide and 2 inches tall from top to bottom of stem.

Note: Experiment with different hooks and/or yarn for a variety of different sizes.

Abbreviations:

• ch: Chain
• sl st: Slip Stitch
• dc: Double Crochet

Instructions:

Chain 4 and join with a slip stitch to form a ring.

Round 1 (all stitches worked into the center of the ring): work (4 dc, sl st) into the center of the ring.

Repeat two more times for a total of three "leaves"

Chain 4, then in the second ch from the hook work one sc. Work a sc in each of the next two chains, then work a sl st into the center of the ring to finish off the stem.

Join to close shamrock with a sl st and fasten off.

Finishing:

Weave in the ends and you're all finished! Because they are so small, you may need to shape them with your hands a bit.
