Part 1: Crocheting the Individual Components

1. Large White Flower with Pink & Yellow Center (Make 8-10)

• Center (Pink Yarn): Ch 2. 6 sc in 2nd ch from hook. Sl st to join. (6 sts)
• Stamen (Yellow Yarn): Attach yellow yarn. *Ch 3, sl st into next sc from previous round.* Repeat 5 more times. Fasten off yellow. (6 small loops)
• Petal Base (White Yarn): Attach white yarn to any sc from round 1 (behind the yellow loops). *Ch 3, sl st into next sc.* Repeat 5 more times, creating 6 ch-3 loops.
• Petals: For each ch-3 loop: (sc, hdc, 2 dc, hdc, sc) into the loop. Sl st into the first sc of the round to join the petals at the base. Fasten off white, leaving a long tail for sewing.

2. Small White Flower (Make 6-8)

• Center (White Yarn): Ch 2. 6 sc in 2nd ch from hook. Sl st to join. (6 sts)
• Petals: *Ch 2, (hdc, dc, hdc) into the next st, ch 2, sl st into the same st.* Repeat 5 more times to create 6 small petals. Sl st to join. Fasten off white, leaving a long tail.

3. Pink Flower Bud (Make 5-7)

• Bud (Light Pink Yarn): Ch 2. 6 sc in 2nd ch from hook (or use magic ring). (6 sts)
• Round 2: (sc, inv dec) x 2. (4 sts)
• Round 3: inv dec x 2. (2 sts)
• Pull yarn through remaining stitches and tighten to close. Fasten off, leaving a long tail.

4. Green Leaf (Make 12-15)

• Leaf (Dark Green Yarn): Ch 6. Sc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc in next ch, dc in next ch, hdc in next ch, sc in last ch. Sl st into the first sc to create a slight curve. Fasten off, leaving a long tail.

Part 2: Assembling the Watch Bracelet

1. Secure the Watch Face: Position your watch face. If it has lugs, you may need to crochet a small band (e.g., ch 10, then sc rows) to attach to them. If the watch face is a charm-style without traditional lugs, you can gently crochet directly around its edges or create a small ring to hold it securely. For a seamless look as in the image, you’ll be building the flowers around and slightly over the watch edges.
2. First Floral Cluster (around watch): Begin by sewing 2-3 of the Large White Flowers directly around the top edge of the watch face. Use the long tails and a tapestry needle to secure them firmly, ensuring the watch face is visible and stable. Add a few Green Leaves tucked underneath and between the large flowers.
3. Extending the Bracelet: Continue adding Large White Flowers, Small White Flowers, Pink Buds, and Green Leaves, alternating them to create a dense, organic floral band extending outwards from both sides of the watch face. Aim for a length that will comfortably go around your wrist, leaving about 1.5-2 inches on each end for the clasp attachment. Sew each component securely to its neighbors and to any underlying
