Leaving around some yarn for sewing, Chain in multiple of 3 + 5. I have chained 65 in this tutorial.

R1: dc in 5th chain from hook, ch 2, dc in the same space, then *chain 1, skip 2 chain space, (dc, ch 2, dc) in next ch,* rep ** across.

R2: chain 3 (count as 1 dc), turn your work, (2 dc, ch 1, 1 tr, ch 1, 3 dc) in the same space, 1 sc in the next chain space, *(3 dc, ch 1, 1 tr, ch1, 3 dc) in the next V space (the chain space between the two dc of prev row), 1 sc in the next chain space*. Repeat ** across. Fasten off leaving a long tail for sewing.

Now we will have 21 petals made.

Start rolling them from one end and try to keep the bottom aligned. Then sew them in place. Remember to secure them nice and tight.

Your succulent is now ready :) You can make them bigger or smaller by increasing or decreasing the chains. The blue succulent below is made with 45+5 chains.
