Right now I'm into crocheting! And recently I found a tutorial for a crochet flower chain. I had to test it. First you crochet with green yarn the middle of flowers, leaves and chain in one piece as long as you want them. Then you crochet the petals in colors you like. This is great to use up your wool remnants. I only had remains with high wool content and I wrapped the chain around my neck, very nicely warmed, it must be great in winter. But it is certainly more comfortable to wear a chain made of cotton. The chain is now a game for my girlie (4y), but you can also use it to spice up a gift, as a decoration for windows, table, curtain rods. Oh, and it is done in about 2 hours!
I didn't find a tutorial in english but maybe you find some instructions on Crochet Pattern Central. But I found two sites, where basic crochet terms are translated from english to german and vice versa: maschenzähler designs, wolleunddesign
that is truly beautiful ;-)

I have always liked the crochet flower chains, although I can't picture myself actually wearing one around my neck, lol.

If you are looking for something in English ... I made this flower scarf a while ago. It is not as delicate as yours ...
