    Would it be possible to miss out the contrasting colour round (I wish to use a yarn colour that is variegated)

      Yes you can skip that part if you would like and just do a regular sc row.

    Can the flower be made by a novice – someone just learning crochet or is to complicated

    Confused on hook size. A G hook is 4.00 mm. A 5.00 hook is an H. Which do you use for a baby?

      You don’t have to if you don’t like the look, you can just make it a sc row instead.
