Crochet White Rose Flower
Materials:
- Worsted weight yarn in white (approx. 50g)
- 4.0 mm (G/6) crochet hook
- Scissors
- Tapestry needle for weaving ends
Gauge: Not critical for this project, but for reference, 4 inches = 12 single crochets and 12 rows in double crochet.
Abbreviations:
- ch - chain
- sc - single crochet
- dc - double crochet
- sl st - slip stitch
- sp - space
Instructions:
- Start with the Center: Make a magic ring or ch 4 and join to form a ring.
- Round 1: Ch 1, work 10 sc into the ring. Join with a sl st to the first sc. (10 stitches)
- Round 2: Ch 2 (counts as first dc), work 2 dc in each sc around. Join with a sl st. (20 stitches)
- Round 3: Ch 1, *1 sc in next dc, 2 dc in next dc*. Repeat from * around. Join with a sl st. (30 stitches)
- Round 4: Ch 2, *1 dc in next 2 dc, 2 dc in next dc*. Repeat from * around. Join with a sl st. (40 stitches)
- Round 5: Ch 1, *1 sc in next 3 dc, 2 dc in next dc*. Repeat from * around. Join with a sl st. (50 stitches)
- Round 6: Ch 1, working in the back loops only, *1 sc in next 4 dc, 2 dc in next dc*. Repeat from * around. Join with a sl st. (60 stitches)
- Creating Petals:
- Round 7: Ch 3, *1 dc in next 4 sts, skip 2 sts, 1 sl st in next*. Repeat from * around until you reach the sl st. (Petals will form between the skipped stitches)
- Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing.
- Finishing: Gently pull the center of the flower to shape it. Use the long tail to sew the base of the petals together if desired for additional stability. Weave in all ends using a tapestry needle.
Optional Variations: You can change the color of the yarn to create roses in different shades! Try adding a few leaves using the same pattern but in a green yarn for a lovely bouquet effect.
Finishing Tips: For a polished look, consider blocking your rose. This involves lightly steaming it and shaping it while it cools to help it hold its shape.
