Easy Free Crochet Mandala Pattern with Flower Design
This post includes affiliate links.
This is a free crochet pattern is for a flower mandala that was made with a 14-inch metal ring and 5 worsted weighted yarn colors.
Mandalas are beautiful and unique. You can easily use them for more than just wallhangings but also for dream catchers if you like. In fact, you could even add some chimes and hang them outside to add some extra style to your outdoor living or yard.
Considering this pattern is easy and quickly made and looks amazing, you can easily crochet this mandala as a gift for someone special, regardless of the occasion or the time of the year.
I didn’t use a lot of yarn to make this mandala pattern. So you could easily use the leftover worsted yarn you have in your stash. But I must say that the Brava Mini Packs are great for this pattern. You can make lots of them, in different color combinations. You will just need more 14-inch rings which I got very affordably at my local Joann’s Craft Store.
