Step By Step Pattern

Materials

Here’s what you’ll need:

• Yarn:
  • Main base (white and green): 100% acrylic medium-weight (Weight 4 or worsted).
  • Rose petals (pink): 100% acrylic light-weight (DK, Weight 3).
• Hooks:
  • Size H or 5 mm for white and green portions.
  • Size G or 4 mm for pink flowers.
• Optional Tools:
  • Yarn needle for assembling flowers and sewing loose ends.
  • Scissors for cutting yarn.

Stitch Guide

If you’re new to crochet, here’s a quick overview of the stitches you’ll need:

1. Magic Circle:
   Create a loop with your yarn, insert the hook, and pull through to start. Tighten by pulling the tail end to close the circle.
2. Chain Stitch (ch):
   Yarn over and pull through the loop on the hook.
3. Slip Stitch (sl st):
   Insert the hook into a stitch, yarn over, and pull through the loop on the hook and the target stitch.
4. Single Crochet (sc):
   Insert the hook into the stitch, yarn over, pull through, yarn over again, and pull through both loops.
5. Double Crochet (dc):
   Yarn over, insert the hook, pull up a loop (3 loops on hook), yarn over, pull through two loops, yarn over again, and pull through the remaining two loops.
6. Picot Stitch (optional for advanced touches):
   Chain 4, slip stitch into the first chain to create a small loop (commonly used for decorative edges).

Notes

• Gauge Adjustments:
  • If the circle curls upward like a basket, switch to a larger hook size.
  • If the circle ruffles excessively, use a smaller hook.
• Customization Tips:
  • Stop working the base when you feel you’ve reached the desired size (coaster, centerpiece, or blanket).
  • Alternate flower placements between junctions, or adorn every corner for a dense floral look.

Pattern Instructions

Step 1: Foundation Base (Rounds 1–14)

Round 1:

1. Create a magic circle and chain 2.
2. Crochet 12 double crochets into the magic circle.
3. Pull the loose yarn tail to close the circle.
4. Slip stitch into the first double crochet to complete the round.

Round 2:

1. Chain 2 (acts as a buffer stitch).
2. In each stitch, make 2 double crochets (increase).
3. Separate each set by a chain 1.
4. Slip stitch to finish the round.

At this point, you should have 24 double crochets divided into 12 sets separated by chain 1.

Round 3:

1. Chain 2.
2. In the first double crochet, create 1 double crochet; in the next, add 2 double crochets (increase).
3. Follow the pattern of “1 dc, 1 dc, 2 dc” for each set, separated by chain 1 after each set.
4. Slip stitch to finish.

Repeat rounds, increasing the double crochets per set by 1 each time (Round 4: 1 dc, 1 dc, 1 dc, 2 dc). By Round 14, you’ll have wider sets with approximately 14 double crochets in each set.

Step 2: Leaf Details

1. Attach green yarn with a slip stitch to any double crochet.
2. Chain 1, then single crochet into the same stitch.
3. Chain 3, skip 2 stitches, and make a single crochet into the third stitch.
4. Repeat “Chain 3, skip 2, single crochet” around the circle. Slip stitch into the first single crochet to close the round.

Creating Leaves (in chain spaces):

1. In a chain-3 space, single crochet, double crochet, picot stitch (chain 4, slip stitch into the first chain).
2. Add another double crochet and single crochet into the same space.
3. Repeat for all remaining chain-3 spaces.

Step 3: Crochet Roses

1. Using pink yarn, make a slip knot and chain 13.
2. Skip the first 3 chains, double crochet into the fourth chain.
3. In the next stitch, make 2 double crochets. Then, in all remaining stitches, add 3 double crochets per stitch.

The resulting piece should naturally coil into a rose. Secure the shape with a yarn needle, sewing through layers for stability.

Step 4: Assemble the Bouquet

1. Attach roses to the base where desired (alternating between leaf junctions or consistently at each junction).
2. Using the yarn needle, sew the flower securely onto the base.
3. Weave in any loose ends and snip extra tails.

Final Touch

Take a step back and admire your bouquet or blanket. You can continue adding flowers, embellishments, or expand the size of the base. This pattern can be as flexible as you want it to be!

Pattern Question

Question: Can I use a different type or size of yarn for this project?

Answer: Yes! You can use any yarn or hook size you have. Just ensure the recommended hook size complements the yarn’s weight for the best final result. Adjustments might affect the size and texture slightly.
