Materials Needed
Before embarking on your crochet Plumeria adventure, gather the following materials:
Yarn: Opt for a soft and lightweight yarn in shades of white, pink, or yellow to mimic the natural colors of Plumeria flowers.
Crochet Hook: Select a crochet hook size that complements your chosen yarn weight. A smaller hook will create a tighter stitch, while a larger one will produce a looser and airier texture.
Scissors: Essential for trimming yarn ends and finishing your project.
Tapestry Needle: Needed for weaving in yarn ends and sewing the flower components together.
