Inspiration

Pink Rose Crochet Pattern

INSTRUCTIONS:

Yarn: tapestry cotton colour A= pink, cotton thread in colour B=green

Crochet hook: 2.5mm

Wire for the stem: 25cm

Details of components:

-         Petals – pink; we’re going to make 3 different sizes.

-         Sepals – green cylinder where the petal bunch will be finally secured.

The rose bud doesn’t reveal the stamens and stigma.

METHOD:

Petals – style 1 (6pcs.)

(R1: using A, make 10ch, turn and make (1hdc in the 2nd ch from the hook, 1sc), 7sc, 2ch

R2: 8sc, 3ch

R3: (at hook make 1dc, 1hdc), 4sc, 4sl st, 1ch

R4: 4sl st in front loop only, 4sc, 2ch

R5: 8sc, 1ch

Repeat R1 – R5 2 times = 2 petals, join with sl st, 2sl ) Repeat 3 times = 6 petals rolled into a bunch.

Petals – style 2 (2pcs.)

R1: using A, make 13ch, turn and make (1hdc in the 2nd ch from the hook, 1sc), 10sc, 2ch

R2: 5sc, 6hdc, 3ch

R3: (at hook make 1dc, 1hdc), 6dc, 5sc, 2ch

R4: 5sc, 6dc, 2ch

R5: 11sc, 1ch

Repeat R1 – R5 2 times = 2 petals, join with sl st, 2sl to join the bunch;

Petals – style 3 (2pcs.)

R1: using A, make 10ch, turn and make (1hdc in the 2nd ch from the hook, 1sc), 7sc, 2ch

R2: 8sc, 4ch

R3: (1dc, 1hdc in the 2nd ch from the hook, 1sc), 10dc, 2ch

R4: 12dc, 4ch

R5: (1dc, 1hdc in the 2nd ch from the hook, 1sc), 12dc, 2sc, 2ch

R6: 2sc, 12dc, 2ch

R7: skip 1st, 12dc, 2ch

R8: 9sc, 1ch

R9: 9sl st, 1ch

Repeat R1 – R9 2 times = 2 petals, join with sl st, 2sl to secure the bunch. Finish off and leave a long tail. Thread a needle with the left tail and stitch around the outer petals to close the flower bud slightly and then secure the base tightly. Shape the petals.

Sepals

Start: using B, work sc around the wire until almost covered; continue with 4ch, join with sl st and continue in round

R1: 1ch, (1sc, 1sc)x4 = 8sc, join with sl st

R2: 1ch, (1sc, (1sc, 1sc))x4 = 12st, join with sl st

R3: 1ch, 12sc, join with sl st; R4: same; R5: same; R6: same

R7: (7 ch, turn, 3sc, 1hdc, 1dc, skip 1st and 1sl st in the 2^nd st)x6. Fasten off.

Position the petal bunch inside the sepals’ cylinder, push the wire in the middle of the petal bunch and stitch all around with B.
