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
Fun and easy. Although mine twisted and I had to untangle my head to figure out where I was suppose to start Row 2 - I made it! Fast and easy! Thanks!
I wish you had this for knit! It's a very pretty rose!
Hi,
I just love the roses, but I really don't understand how you have to decrease 2 times in one single chain, it's impossible!! I really don't understand the pattern... I made many amigurumis, but I just can't see how I have to do this. I tried row 1, but it wasn't the same as on the picture... Please, help me!! Could you please explain it to me?
Thank you...
Hi Julia,
I think it might be a misinterpretation of the abbreviation 'dc' it stands for Double Crochet
Yarn over and insert your hook into the stitch or space indicated.
Yarn over and pull up a loop. (3 loops on hook.)
Yarn over and draw through 2 of the loops. (2 loops on hook.)
Yarn over and draw through the last 2 of the loops.
Hope this has helped
Thank you so much!! In fact, I thought that dc stood for decrease, the abbrevations variate a lot in all this different patterns on the web!
Thank you once more,
Julia
Hi Anjie
These look great - saw a lady making them and thought they were just beautiful. My mother has crocheted a baby blanket for all her great grandchildren and sadly passed away recently. On tidying up her things I found a blanket started for the next baby and will finish it for my daughter who has just announced she is having a baby. If it is a girl it will definitely be adorned with your crochet flowers.
All the best from Godzone - NZ
I just made the rose, it was super easy, and turned out beautifully!! This is by far the easiest pattern I've tried. Thank you for sharing!
This is BY FAR my favorite rose (and tutorial) I've yet to find... and I've been looking for some time now! Thanks and God bless! :)
These flowers are so cute! I'm going to try to make one for a friend as a hair accessory! :)
wow these are absolutely gorgeous! love the patterns
