General Information
-
Materials:
-
Yarn: 100% unmercerized cotton ("La Abuelita" brand). Colors: Light Pink, "Girl" Pink (vibrant rose), and Avocado Green.
-
Hook: Size 2.0 mm (as used in the video) or 3.0 mm.
-
Other: Skewer sticks (trimmed to 15.5–16 cm), hot glue gun, scissors, and pliers for cutting the sticks.
-
-
Difficulty Level: Intermediate. While the stitches (single, double, and triple crochet) are standard, the "mirror effect" for the leaves and the assembly process requires precision.
-
Uses: Potted plant decor, handmade bouquets, gifts for Mother's Day, or home centerpieces.
Step-by-Step Details
1. Crafting the Rose Petals
-
Foundation: Start with a slip knot and 34 chains. Work a row of 33 single crochets.
-
The Mesh Row: Create 12 "V" shaped triangles by working double crochets with two-chain separations.
-
Building Volume: In each triangular space, work two double crochets, two chains, and two more double crochets.
-
The Petals: For the first 11 petals, work 8 double crochets into each space. For the final (12th) petal, work 12 double crochets to help it wrap around the base more naturally.
2. The Green Base (Sepals)
-
The Ring: Start with a magic ring and work 20 double crochets into it.
-
The Points: Create five sharp points around the ring. Each point is made by chaining 8 and working a sequence of slip stitches, single crochets, and half-double crochets back down the chain.
3. The Leaves
-
Shape: Chain 12 and work a variety of stitches (slip, single, half-double, double, and double-treble) to create a leaf shape.
-
Mirror Effect: Once you reach the end of the chain, turn and work the same sequence on the opposite side to finish the leaf.
4. Assembly and Wrapping
-
The Flower: Apply glue to the end of the petal strip (the side with the 12-double-crochet petal) and wrap it tightly around the tip of the skewer. Secure the bottom with glue as you roll.
-
The Base: Slide the green sepal base up the stick and glue it to the bottom of the rose, ensuring the points cover the seam where the flower ends.
-
The Stem: Tie green yarn at the top of the stick and wrap it downward. Insert the leaves midway through wrapping, securing them with a few extra turns of yarn and a dab of glue at the bottom.
Special Features
-
Realistic Structure: The varying number of stitches in the petals (8 vs. 12) ensures the rose looks full and wraps perfectly without gaps.
-
Adjustable Height: By trimming the skewers, you can create a tiered effect if placing multiple roses in one pot.
Tutor’s Suggestions
-
Hook Choice: Use a 2.0 mm hook to keep the stitches tight, which helps the rose maintain its shape over time.
-
Stem Height: For a standard mini pot, the tutor recommends cutting the sticks to roughly 16 cm so the flowers don't look top-heavy.
Conclusion
Crocheting these roses is a rewarding process that results in a beautiful, permanent floral arrangement. Whether you use them for a single pot or a full bouquet, the detailed assembly ensures they look as close to nature as possible.
Final Tip: After gluing everything together, gently pull at the outer petals to "open" the bloom. This small adjustment makes the crochet rose look much more lifelike and voluminous.
