For the shamrocks as shown:

• H (5.0 mm)  hook 
• Green yarn (darker green is Lion Brand Vanna's Choice in "Kelly Green" and the lighter one is Red Heart Super Saver in "Spring Green"
• Tapestry needle

Note: Experiment with different hooks and/or yarn for a variety of different sizes.

Abbreviations: 

• ch: Chain 
• sl st: Slip Stitch 
• dc: Double Crochet 

Instructions:

Chain 4 and join with a slip stitch to form a ring.

Round 1 (all stitches worked into the center of the ring): work (4 dc, sl st) into the center of the ring.  

Repeat two more times for a total of three "leaves"

Chain 4, then in the second ch from the hook work one sc.  Work a sc in each of the next two chains, then work a sl st into the center of the ring to finish off the stem.

Join to close shamrock with a sl st and fasten off.

Finishing:

Weave in the ends and you're all finished!  Because they are so small, you may need to shape them with your hands a bit.
