Materials You'll Need:
Yarn: Choose your favorite yarn weight. Sport weight (approximately 2-ply) or DK (double knit) weight yarn works particularly well for this project, offering a good balance of detail and strength. Select colors that complement your personal style. We'll be using two colors: one for the main body of the flower and one for the leaves (optional).
Crochet Hook: Select a hook size appropriate for your chosen yarn weight. The yarn label will usually provide a recommendation. A hook size between 3mm and 4mm is a good starting point.
Scissors: For snipping your yarn.
Yarn Needle: For weaving in loose ends.
Phone Strap Clasp: You'll need a sturdy clasp designed for phone straps. These are readily available online or in craft stores.
Optional: Stitch markers to keep track of your stitches. A small measuring tape can also be helpful for consistency.
