I am so happy with how this crochet tapestry turned out! This pattern was designed after my Crafty Boho Pillow pattern (there’s also a matching Crafty Boho Rug pattern!)

Special Stitches
Bobble: *YO, Insert hook into stitch and pull up a loop, YO and pull through 2 loops on your hook* Repeat 3 more times. Now you should have 5 loops on your hook. YO and pull through all 5 loops on your hook. (do not chain after this, just go straight into your next stitch).

DISCLAIMER
All these pics were taken using a size G hook, but the pattern calls for a size H. I didn’t want to have to retake ALL these photos just because the hook size was different

Sew in your tails.

The good thing about this crochet tapestry pattern is you can use any hook, yarn or flower pattern to create your flowers to go on the bottom. You can use as many or as little flowers as you would like; it’s totally up to you.

Here is how I made and attached my flowers.

Popcorn Flower (make 2)

This flower pattern is by the lovely Brittany of B. Hooked crochet. You can find it for free on her blog here.

Rose #1- Swirly Rose

This rose is super simple to make. You can adjust the size by changing hook sizes, yarn weights and by adding/subtracting rows.

I made a quick video showing how I make these Swirly Rose Flowers.

It is made in the round so you may need a stitch marker.

Round 1: SC 6 into a magic circle

Round 2: Starting in the top of the first SC from Round 1, INC in each stitch around, BACK LOOP ONLY (12)

Round 3: Starting in the top of the first SC from Round 2, *INC, SC* around, back loop only (18)

Round 4: Starting in the top of the first stitch from Round 3, *INC, SC, SC* around in the back loop only (24)

TIP: If you want to keep adding rows, round 5 would say *INC, SC, SC, SC* around in the back loop only (30), round 6 would say *INC, SC, SC, SC, SC* and so on.

Chain 1 and turn your work.

*SC, SC, SC, INC* around in the exposed front loops, all the way to the center of the rose. Tie off, leaving a long tail for sewing your rose onto your wall hanging.

Pull your tail to the back of the rose and set it aside until you are ready to attach it to your wall hanging.

Rose #2- Scallop Rose (make 2)

With the yarn of your choosing, and appropriate hook,

CH a multiple of 6, then add one more CH to the end for turning. (multiple of 6 + 1)

For my flower I am using I Love This Yarn in the color Gray Mist , and a Clover amour size 5.0mm Hook. I chained 37 (36 is the multiple of 6 then add 1 to make 37).

Skip the chain closest to your hook, INC (2 SC in the same stitch) in every CH down. CH 1, turn. (72)

*Skip the first two stitches, 5 DC in the next stitch. Skip the next two stitches, SL ST in the next stitch. Repeat from * all the way down the row.

My flower has 12 scallops (or 5 DC clusters) .

Leave a very long tail for shaping our rose and attaching to the body of the piece.

Thread your long tail onto a tapestry needle. With the wrong side facing (so your scallops should look like they are curling away from you), begin to roll your flower into itself, and stitch it closed as you roll.

Your stitches should go all the way across the base of the flower, going through lots of stitches along the way.

I find it easier to look at it from the bottom as I roll and stitch.

This is hard for me to explain in the written word, so I included a quick video for this flower too.

Attaching your flowers

After you make all of your flowers, line them up onto your crochet tapestry and decide which order you want them to go in.

Keep in mind you will still need to attach your fringe into each stitch across the bottom of your tapestry.

Starting near the center, and working your way out, attach each flower to the body of your crochet tapestry.

Here is where I use the tails that were left after making each flower. I pull both tails down into the body of the tapestry, thread the longest tail onto my tapestry needle, and secure each flower down with a few stitches.

Tie the two tails of the flower together in a knot, then sew them into the body of the wall hanging.

Repeat for all flowers.

Fringe

Originally, when I first made this design, I attached the fringe before the flowers, but I had issues with centering the flowers because of the fringe.

Adding the fringe after the flowers makes attaching the flowers less stressful lol.

Decide how long you want your fringe to hang down from the bottom of your crochet tapestry, and double it.

Mine fringe hangs down about 11.5 inches. So each piece of yarn is about 23″ long.

Pro Tip: Cutting fringe is easier if you use a template, wrap your yarn around and around your template, then cut all the fringe at once. I used a book for my fringe.

Attach fringe pieces in each stitch across the bottom of your wall hanging.

For a fuller look, I attached one fringe piece in the first stitch, then two fringe pieces in the second stitch and repeated that across the bottom.

My fringe was across 35 stitches.

To attach fringe, fold your fringe yarn in half, insert your hook into the stitch from the back of your wall hanging, grab the center of the fringe yarn (where its folded) and pull it through the stitch (this creates a loop on your hook).

Grab the fringe yarn with your hook and pull it through the loop. Repeat as desired.

Now take a step back and look at your beautiful piece of wall decor you created!! I think these wall hangings are stunning and would look so pretty in any room in a house.

These inexpensive hooks are PERFECT for hanging your crochet tapestry on!

I love how versatile the design is. You could get creative with different flower patterns, color combos, yarns, and textures and make each Crafty Boho Wall Hanger unique.

I hope you guys love this pattern. If you make any wall hangings and post pics, please tag me @ACraftyConcept, I would love to see your finished piece! I’m excited to see everyone’s unique style shine through with this design.

Happy Crocheting
❤️Ashley

    Hello! When I saw this on IG I could have swore you said 8 inch hoop, is there anyway I can alter the pattern to work for that size? Help!! Lol it’s a beautiful pattern thank you so much for sharing it, also your IG stories make my day! ????

    • Joe says:

      Hello
      I am at the part where I am going to attach it to the hoop but it is way to small because I crochet tight.

      Should I remake it with a larger look, maybe a j 6.00mm, and try it?

  3. SHANNON TORRES says:

    I love this wall hanger it’s so pretty. With the yarn that I’m using Feels Like Butta it’s going to be small AMD I would like it to be the 10inches, it’s supposed to be. Is there a way to make it bigger?

      • Mary says:

        Ashley

        Love love your pattern. Got a couple questions one how do you crochet so there are no holes between the stitches. Although you say the pattern is free some rounds are missing on the free pattern on your blog due to your photos. Not sure how to share a photo of my work in progress. Want to make for my very soon to be granddaughter’s room.

        Blessings

        Mary

  4. Deann says:

    This is so beautiful! I was so excited when I came across it on Facebook, and I am starting my first one now. You are one talented lady <3. Thank you for the great pattern!

  5. Noreen says:

    You are awesome . I would love to have a brain, like yours. It amazes me, that people, like you, can think of a project and figure out so many details. We get to have the honor of buying your patterns. God Bless You.

    • Ashley says:

      Possibly, which row are you on? If you haven’t attached to the ring yet, it might bow a little, but it will straighten when you attach it.

    • Cindy says:

      Hi Alli, I just wanted to share, my work is not laying flat either. I’m hoping, like Ashley says, that it will be fine when attached to the ring. Sorry for butting in on your post. ????

  6. Cindy says:

    I’m excited to be just starting this wall hanging now for my daughter’s apartment. Could I use a 6 oz. super bulky yarn? Will it make it too big for a 10″ ring?
    Thanks so much!

    • Ashley says:

      Hi thats so exciting! You can use any yarn you’d like, just work the pattern and stop when your circle is about 2″ smaller than your ring

      • Cindy says:

        Hi again Ashley! I had to set this project aside while I finished a different WIP but, I just realized I missed the details where you say to chain and turn instead of just continuing in the same direction. ???? Will this cause a problem or should I frog some rows? I’m on Round 11. Thanks!

        • Ashley says:

          Hi Cindy!
          So the row turning big ensures that the bobble stitches pop out on the “right side” of the work. If you are happy with how yours looks though then I wouldnt Frog it!

  7. Lindy says:

    I got some 10″ and also some 12″ because hobby lobby only had 2 of the 10″. Would I be able to continue the same round patterns to fit the 12″ or will that make it wonky??

  8. Cindy says:

    Hi Ashley, I have my wall hanging finished except for flowers and fringe but my bobbles aren’t staying popped out very well. I guess I crocheted around them too loosely? Is there a way to tighten them up after it’s already on the ring? TIA

      • Cindy says:

        I messaged you on May 31 about that (see above) so no I didn’t turn it. I didn’t realize I should have until it was too late. Now I’m just wondering if there’s anything I can do to fix it. Maybe I just need to frog it back to where my bobbles aren’t popping out?? ????‍♀️

        • Ashley says:

          That’s totally up to you 😀 Just because the “correct way” is to turn it doesn’t mean thats what you HAVE to do. If you like the look of the bobbles they way you did it then you should keep it! If you don’t like the look, you can frog it and start over. Either way the main thing is you like the finished product. That’s one of the things I love about crochet, there isnt just one RIGHT way 😀

  9. Michaela says:

    This is a beautiful pattern. Just curious, do I have to attach it to a metal ring (does that help it hold its shape better, keep it from bowing, or what is the purpose of the ring?) or could I do it without the metal ring? Just curious what your thoughts are? Thanks!

    • Ashley says:

      Hi Michaela, Thank you so much! I’ve actually never tried it without the ring, but I feel like it would be slumpy and droopy, but it may not be! You could always give it a try!

      • Michaela says:

        Thanks for the quick reply! I will make it with the metal ring. You’re probably right, it would probably be droopy.

  10. Brenda Dukeman says:

    Hi Ashley . I love this pattern . But have one question . My Bobbles are not as round as the ones that I see in your wall-hanging . . I am doing them just like it says in the pattern . They puff out but are not real round . I have done the bobble st before and tried it many time over and over . Could it be the yarn . It says it is a 4 weight . But feels like a 3 . I still like it so far though . Was just wondering

    • Ashley says:

      Oh good! I was going to suggest making sure to pull the woring yarn tight after you “pull through all loop” but before you make your single crochet. Or adding another “leg” to the bobble stitch so you woudl have 5 instead of 4, that would make it pop more too. Glad you figured it out!!

  11. Sharon Shook says:

    Hi can I do this in the round or do I have to slip stitch to the first. When I slip stitch it always seem to go sideways on me

  12. Cherie says:

    I love this pattern and plan to make them for friends and family as Christmas gifts (I’m really early I know!)
    I too am a very visual learner and it appears your links for the Swirly Rose and Row 18 have disappeared off your blog post. Can you tell me where I can access them? Or provide more links?

  13. Jillian Carpenter says:

    Hello! I have absolutely adored the pattern I have used so far, came out wonderful- it was the unicorn wall hanging. I understand the need for all the ads, but it just seems so spammy and takes forever to load due to all the activity. I used my phone, ipad and computer with the same results. I would scroll to read a line and by the time I looked back up it had been moved over by an ad. I caved and bought the PDF version since I plan to make more but just wanted you to know in case you haven’t heard from a user side of things. As I am typing this on my computer, there is legit three ads being shown to me plus your video you have playing. It is just way too busy and frustrating. I was hoping to navigate your website some more but it is just way to much.

    • Ashley says:

      I appreciate your feedback, unfortunately that is the only way I can afford to have a crochet business, by ads pay all my bills and without them I would go out of business. Im glad you took advantage of the PDF option, $5 (sometimes less) is a great price for uninterrupted information. I hope you love the pattern 🙂

  14. Gladys Rosario says:

    Your pattern was beautiful, thank you for sharing and the flowers were spectacular. I made one and i love it.

  15. Laur says:

    This pattern is awesome! Thank you for sharing your creativity with the world. I’ve made two unicorn hangings and am starting today with your traditional boho hanging. For the unicorn, you modified row 18, so that is the pattern I used. I am curious, to now do the boho what is the difference? Or can either version be used? Thanks again!

  16. Rosario says:

    Heyya i’m for the first time here. I found this board and
    I to find It truly helpful & it helped me out a lot.
    I am hoping to offer one thing again and aid otheers such as
    you aided me.

  17. Zoe says:

    Hello 🙂 thank you for sharing this. Is the paid pattern more detailed?

    I am finding it hard to know where to place the stitches. Do you put the increases(2 sc’s) in the same stitch you put the ss and chain one? Also after the bobble stitch I am not sure where I join, is it the top of the bobble or the first sc after the bobble?. Thank you Zoe x

  18. Viola says:

    Hi my piece isnt sitting flat in the metal ring… I used the same size hook and 10 inch ring but it’s very loose… anything i can do to fix this?

    • Nellwyn Brantley says:

      I am having trouble with the inc, sc2 ,I Inc sc 3 etc. If you do that in each stitch the numbers don’t come out right.. Please help.

  19. Jamie says:

    Did you have to block your piece to get your stitches to all lay like the pictures? Mine do not look like those. It’s more of a raised and recessed stitch. Not very appealing.
