(0m11s) I was making the flower stitch on the plain knitting work and now I will be making it on the work of a knit stitch. The work must have always multiple of 6 stitches.
R1: (0m40s) Make 1 knit stitch, work 3 yo in next 5 st (3 yo in each st), (13m33s) make 1 knit stitch, work 3 yo in next 5 st (3 yo in each st), (2m18s) make 1 knit stitch, work 3 yo in next 5 st (3 yo in each st). Continue the same way to complete the round and end it with a stitch.
R2: (2m44s) Turn the work over and make a purl stitch. Release 5 first groups of 3 yo from the R1. You will have now 5 loops. Make (3m19s) 1 yo, put 5 loops (that you have from releasing 5 groups of 3 yo from the previous round) to the second crochet and put the first crochet through them, make 1 yo, put the same 5 loops to the second crochet again and put the first crochet through them, (4m01s) make 1 purl stitch.
Release another 5 groups of 3 yo from the R2 to have now 3 loops. Make 1 yo, put 5 loops to the second crochet and put the first crochet through them, make 1 yo, put the same 5 loops to the second crochet again and put the first crochet through them. Make a purl stitch (5m04s).
Release another 5 groups of 3 yo from the R2 to have now 3 loops. Make 1 yo, put 5 loops to the second crochet and put the first crochet through them, make 1 yo, put the same 5 loops to the second crochet again and put the first crochet through them. Make a purl stitch.
Continue the same way. Release another 5 groups of 3 yo from the R2 to have now 3 loops. Make 1 yo, put 5 loops to the second crochet and put the first crochet through them, make 1 yo, put the same 5 loops to the second crochet again and put the first crochet through them. Make a purl stitch.
And make the last flower from this round. Release another 5 groups of 3 yo from the R2 to have now 3 loops. Make 1 yo, put 5 loops to the second crochet and put the first crochet through them, make 1 yo, put the same 5 loops to the second crochet again and put the first crochet through them. Make a purl stitch.
R3: Turn the work over. (6m20s) Close each stitch with a stitch.
