🌹 How to Crochet a Gorgeous Rose Flower
🧶 Materials You’ll Need:
- Yarn (choose a soft worsted-weight yarn in rose and leaf colors)
- Crochet hook (Size 4.0mm–5.0mm recommended, depending on your yarn)
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
- Optional: hot glue or floral wire (for stems or bouquet)
🧵 Crochet Rose Pattern (Curled Rose Design)
✅ Abbreviations:
- ch = chain
- sc = single crochet
- dc = double crochet
- sl st = slip stitch
- st(s) = stitch(es)
🌸 Step 1: Foundation Chain
- Ch 51
(You can adjust by using any multiple of 3 + 1 for a bigger or smaller rose.)
🌸 Step 2: Row 1 – Base Row
- Starting in 2nd ch from hook, work 1 sc in each ch across.
- You’ll have 50 sc.
- Ch 1, turn.
🌸 Step 3: Row 2 – Create Petals
Now you’ll crochet petals in groups along the row.
- In the first st: (sl st, skip 1 st, 5 dc in next st, skip 1 st, sl st)
- Repeat this pattern across the row. You’ll make ~12–15 petals.
These will look like soft loops curling up.
🌸 Step 4: Shape the Rose
- Starting at one end, begin rolling the strip inward into a spiral, letting the petals layer naturally.
- Once it’s in shape, use your yarn needle to sew through the base several times to secure it.
- Adjust the petals to bloom outwards beautifully.
🌿 Optional: Crochet Leaf
To add a leaf:
- Ch 10
- In 2nd ch from hook: sc, hdc, dc, dc, tr, dc, dc, hdc, sc
- Fasten off and weave in ends.
Make 1–2 leaves and sew them to the base of the rose.
🪄 Finishing Touches
- Use floral wire and wrap yarn around it for a realistic stem.
- Spray lightly with water and shape petals while damp for a natural curl.
