HOW TO…
CÓMO HACERLO…

These hairpins are very easy to make...And here is how to: 
Estos ganchos con flor son muy fáciles de hacer...y aquí les muestro cómo: 




You will need:
Cotton yarn, fingerling weight (or double thread)
Crochet hook # 3 or 3.5 mm
Mini button
hair clip
Sewing needle or glue gun

Necesitarás lo siguiente:
Hilo de algodón delgado (o doble hilo)
Gancho # 3 ó 3.5 mm
Botón miniatura
Gancho para pelo
Aguja para coser a mano o goma fuerte


1.  Make a simple crochet flower with 5 petals, in the following way...  
Haz una flor simple con 5 pétalos, de la siguiente manera...  






a. In a magic ring, make 10 sc. Close row with a slip st on the first sc.
En un anillo mágico, hacer 10 puntos bajos (pb). Cerrar con un punto superficial en el primer pb.

b. Make the petals, repeating 5 times the following sequence: * 3 chains, in next sc make 3dc tog, then close the petal with 3ch and sl st in next sc.* (total: 5 petals)
Hacer los pétalos repetiendo 5 veces la siguiente secuencia: *3 cadenas, en el siguiente pb hacer 3 puntos altos juntos, luego cerrar el pétalo con 3 cad., y un punto superficial en el próximo pb* (total: 5 pétalos)  

c. Sew in the loose ends. (I suggest leaving a long tail, and use it to sew the button…)
Esconder los hilos sueltos (Les sugiero dejar una cola larga para usarla cuando se pegue el botón…)

2. Sew a mini-button in the center of the flower.
Coser un botón miniatura en el centro de la flor. 

3.  Sew or glue the flower to a hair clip. 
Coser o pegar con goma resistente la flor sobre un gancho de pelo. 




It’s that easy!
¡Es así de simple!
