You will need ...
In dk yarn, approx 150yds/50g of colour 1, and small quantities of colours 2, 3 & 4
3mm hook
Scissors
Darning needle
Tape measure
Abbreviations ...
ch - chain stitch
slst - slip stitch
dc - UK double crochet
htr - UK half treble
tr - UK treble
pc -popcorn stitch
Tension in htr approx 18 rows/16 sts to 4". The flower square should measure approx 3" across.
My hand circumference is 7" ~ as you can see from the photo below this is measured tightly. The mitts are a snug fit, so if your hand circumference is larger than 7-1/2", working an additional row along each long side will add about 3/4" to the overall mitt circumference.

I've laid out the pattern entirely in pictures, so I hope this makes it easy to follow ...

A few more flowers ... a few more ideas ... single flowers could be added to anything as decoration, and the larger square could be made up into blankets, cushions, bags, etc. The double flower mandala is quite funky! And looking at the colour combos I think the mitts would look great as a white daisy on a blue background. Happy hooking :)
