Crochet Rose Flower Bouquet
Materials:
- Yarn in desired colors for small petals, large petals, flower center (torus), and leaves.
- Crochet hook (size not specified in the text).
- Magic ring technique for starting rounds.
Small Petal Pattern (Make 4)
Start with a magic ring.
- Chain 1 (does not count as a stitch).
Round 1:
- 6 single crochet (sc) in the ring. Close the ring with a slip stitch (sl st).
Round 2:
- Chain 1. Do 2 sc in each stitch around for a total of 12 stitches. Close with sl st.
After Round 3:
- Chain 1. 1 sc in the first stitch, then 2 sc in the next stitch (increase). Repeat around to get 18 stitches. Close with sl st.
Round 4:
- Chain 1. Do 2 sc, then an increase. Repeat for the whole round.
Round 5:
- Chain 1. 1 sc, 1 increase, then 3 sc. Repeat this pattern around.
For Round 6:
- Chain 1. 4 sc, then 1 increase. Repeat for total of 36 stitches.
Round 7 (Last round for small petal):
- Chain 1. 9 sc, then in next stitch do 1 sc, chain 2, and 1 sc in the same stitch. From the next space, 2 sc, and repeat the pattern around. End with a sl st to close the round. Secure and cut off the yarn.
Large Petal Pattern (Make 4):
- The large petals follow a similar pattern as the small ones but might extend the rounds for a larger size which isn't specified in the text provided.
Flower Center (Torus):
- Start with a double knot or magic ring.
- Chain 1 (does not count as a stitch).
Round 1:
- 6 sc in the ring. Close with a sl st.
Round 2:
- Chain 1, then make 2 sc in each space. You should have 12 stitches at the end. Close with sl st.
For Rounds 3 and 4:
- Follow a similar pattern to create the torus. Details for these rounds are not provided in the text.
Petals on the Flower Center (Torus):
- Chain 13, find the second stitch from the hook and follow a pattern of increasing stitches from single crochet up to triple crochet to create a petal shape.
- Repeat to create a total of 6 petals around the torus, each petal taking up 3 stitches.
Leaves Pattern:
- Start with a slip knot, then chain 12. Insert the wire if desired for stiffness.
- Start with single crochet and increase the height of stitches until reaching double triple crochets, then decrease back down to single crochet for the leaf shape.
- Round 2 of the leaf involves chain spaces and picot stitches for added texture.
Assembly:
- Once you have all parts made (4 small petals, 4 large petals, 1 flower center (torus), and 2 leaves), assemble the rose by attaching the petals around the center in a pleasing arrangement and adding the leaves to the base.
- While the provided text lacks some detail that might be present in the actual video, this reconstructed pattern based on your scrap provides an overview for crocheting a traditional rose. Adjustments might be needed as you work through the pattern.
