Materials Needed
    •    Yarn: Worsted weight cotton yarn in green

    •    Scissors
    •    Tapestry needle for weaving in ends

    •    TR – Treble Crochet
    •    SL ST – Slip Stitch

Instructions
Step 1: Make the First Leaf
    1    Start with a magic ring (or CH 4, SL ST into first CH to form a ring).
    2    CH 3 (counts as first DC), then work 2 DC into the ring.
    3    CH 2, then SL ST into the ring to complete the first leaf.
Step 2: Create Three More Leaves
Repeat the following steps three more times in the same magic ring:
    1    CH 3, 2 DC, CH 2, SL ST into the ring.
At this point, you should have four leaf sections forming a clover shape.
Step 3: Make the Stem (Optional)
    1    CH 8 (or desired length for the stem).
    2    Work 1 SC into the second chain from the hook, then work SC back up the chain to the base of the clover.
    3    SL ST into the ring to secure, then fasten off and weave in ends.

Finishing Touches
