This tutorial is for a jasmine stitch that I used in a purse pattern that is available on Joy of Motion blog.

I will start at the beginning of crochet purse base. You can find a pattern for it here. For this tutorial I used tshirt yarn from my etsy shop and 9 mm hook/N13.

Draw up height of active loop on hook a little, yo, inserting hook into the same st, draw up a loop (3 loops on the hook). Yo, skip 1 st, insert hook into next st, draw up a loop, yo, insert hook into the same, draw up a loop (7 loops on the hook).

Yo, skip 1 st, insert the hook into next st, draw up a loop, yo, insert the hook into the same st, draw up a loop. (11 loops on the hook). Yo and insert your thumb between yo and a hook, pull yarn through all 11 loops on the hook, sl st by inserting the hook where your thumb was. This will make 1 flower with 3 petals.

To start NEXT flower: Draw up height of active loop on hook a little, yo, inserting hook into st at base of loop (this is the center of the previous flower), yo and draw up a loop (3 loops on the hook).

[Yo, insert hook into st where the last petal petal of previous flower was made, yo and draw up a loop] twice (7 loops on the hook).

Skip 1 st, yo and insert the hook into next st and draw up a loop, yo, insert the hook into the same st and draw up a loop. (11 loops on the hook).

Yo and insert your thumb between yo and a hook, pull yarn through all 11 loops on the hook, sl st by inserting the hook where your thumb was. Repeat procedure for “next flower” to the end of row.

Row 2: Draw up height of active loop on hook a little, yo, inserting hook into the same st, draw up a loop (the base of the petal of the first row). (3 loops on the hook).

* Yo, skip 1 st, insert hook into next st (the center of the flower of previous row), draw up a loop, yo, insert hook to the same st and draw up a loop (7 loops on the hook).

Repeat from * once to have 11 loops on hook. Yo and insert your thumb between yo and a hook, pull yarn through all 11 loops on the hook, sl st by inserting the hook where your thumb was.
