Here is the first part in a short three-part series in which I will be releasing video tutorials for Charlotte, designed by Dedri Uys. The yarn that I am using is Secret Garden by Scheepjes in solid and variegated shades.

Video tutorial
In this first part of Charlotte I show you how to make the center square with its fabulous flower. The flower is thick and slightly raised above the square which gives it a very luxurious look and feel.
Colorway
The colors that I am using are Herb Garden, Wisteria Arch, Bird Bath and Wishing Well, with a 4mm hook.
Scheepjes Secret Garden is available from Wool Warehouse (UK/Int), Caro’s Atelier (NL/EU), Love Crafts (US), and many other Scheepjes stockists.

Thank you for your Tutorial. As I am from Australia and have to convert your stitches to what we use I had trouble with the written pattern. After following your tutorial instructions which are so clear and easy to understand, you have renewed my enthusiasm in crocheting again. As I only knew sc dc ss and chain I feel I have master a great deal. Thank you again.
