Crochet Pattern for the Snap Dragon Flower

Snap Dragon flower free crochet pattern

3/18/2025

There is something so amazing that happens when you're able to crochet your own little girls their own pretty dress and then watch them feel like a princess. For a few years, I was blessed with the ability to create dresses for my 3 little girls. They were my biggest cheerleaders and loved wearing what I made for them.
Each dress had to have some sort of embellishment on it and the Snap Dragon Flower was created for my Snap Dragon Infant & Toddler Dress crochet patterns. Its a fun little frilly flower that is fun to stitch to the dress or attach it to a headband or even make some crochet chains to create your own headband.

Whether you're wanting to crochet a solid color flower or multi colored flower, this crochet pattern is a good one to have in your library for that added special touch.
