Crocheted Flowers - Roses
Submitted by Anjie Davison on Mon, 11/17/2008 - 15:13.
I crocheted these roses from a pattern featured on The Dark Knit It was very easy to follow even though I have never crocheted from a pattern before. I found out what the abbreviations in the pattern meant. I then found tutorials on how the stitches were formed. It all made sense eventually and it was easy.
This is the pattern:
Leaving a 10" length for sewing, chain 57.
Row 1 (Wrong side): (Dc, ch 2, dc) in sixth ch from hook (5 skipped chs count as first dc plus ch 2),*ch 2, skip next 2 chs, (dc, ch 2, dc) in next ch; repeat from * across: 36 sps
Row 2: Ch 3, turn; 5 dc in next ch-2 sp, sc in next ch-2 sp, (6 dc in next ch-2 sp, sc in next ch-2 sp) 5times, (9 dc in next ch-2 sp, sc in next ch-2 sp) 5 times, (12 dc in next ch-2 sp, sc in next sp) 7 times;finish off leaving a 10" length for sewing.
Thread yarn needle with yarn end from beginning chain. With right side facing and beginning with firstpetal made, refer to photo to roll Rose; sew to secure as you roll. Then thread needle with ending yarn and sew to secure.
The photographs below may help with the instructions.
This website is great if you need the abbreviations explaining Crochet Basics
I love this rose. I made a baby blanket in a giant granny square. I started it off with white in the center and later decided that I had made the center larger than I liked. I searched until I found this rose pattern. It was perfect. I added the rose to the center of the blanket. It gave the blanket the finishing touch I wanted. My kids say that out of all the baby blankets I have made this one is the best and the rose is what made the difference!!!
I LOVE this pattern! It is exactly what I was looking for to use with the scarf I'm making. Its a sorta necktie scarf, big rose that has a lot of strands of chains coming out of it that wrap around your neck then through the back of the rose.
Thank you as a complete novice to crochet I found this easy to do, but the second rose will be an improvement on the first. But a lovely way to learn to read a pattern and to learn basic stitches. Thank you.
Thank you so much....easy to make & beautiful
I am going to try this rose I want to use them in card making so don't want them really large. Thanks for the tutorial I haven't crocheted for years and just getting back into it.
I've made 3 of these roses today in different weight yarns...DK, worsted, and bulky. They all turned out really cute and were very simple to make. My granddaughter had requested a rose to wear on her ponytail, so I'll be able to supply her with a whole bouquet in different colors. Thanks!!!
Thanks for the pattern, L O V E it!!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your pattern! I love the simplicity of the pattern and the finished rose.
Has anyone come up with a blanket pattern for these roses. They are gorgeous I would love to make a blanket with these roses on it!
Lovely instructions for the novice crocheter.
