Materials Needed:
Yarn: Any yarn of your choice (medium weight, worsted yarn works well)
Crochet Hook: Use a 4.0mm (G) hook or one that matches your yarn weight
Scissors
Yarn Needle (for weaving in ends)
Floral wire (optional, for sturdiness)
Green Yarn (optional, for leaves and stem)
Stitches Used:
Chain (ch)
Slip Stitch (sl st)
Single Crochet (sc)
Half Double Crochet (hdc)
Double Crochet (dc)
Rose Petals:
Start with a magic ring (or ch 4 and join to form a ring).

Round 1: Ch 2 (this counts as the first dc), then 12 dc into the magic ring. Join with a sl st into the top of the starting ch-2. (13 dc total)

Round 2: Ch 2 (counts as first dc). In the same stitch, make 2 dc. Continue making 2 dc in each stitch around. Join with a sl st into the top of the ch-2. (26 dc total)

Round 3: Ch 2 (counts as first dc). In the same stitch, make 1 dc. Then, make 1 dc into the next stitch. Repeat this pattern (1 dc in one stitch, 2 dc in the next) around. Join with a sl st into the top of the ch-2. (39 dc total)

Round 4: Ch 2 (counts as first dc). Make 1 dc in each of the next 2 stitches, then 2 dc in the next stitch. Repeat this pattern around. Join with a sl st into the top of the ch-2. (52 dc total)

Shaping the Rose:
Cut the yarn, leaving a long tail for sewing.

Start rolling the petals into a spiral shape. Begin with the first petal and continue rolling, ensuring the petals curve outward. As you go, use the long tail to stitch the petals together in place.

Once you reach the center, tuck the end under and stitch securely.

Optional: Adding Leaves
Leaf 1: Ch 9. In the 2nd ch from the hook, make 1 sl st. Then, make 1 sc in the next 2 chains, 1 hdc in the next 3 chains, 1 dc in the next 2 chains, 1 hdc in the next 3 chains. Turn your leaf and continue down the other side using the same stitch pattern. Fasten off, leaving a long tail for attaching.

Leaf 2: Repeat the above steps to create a second leaf.

Attach the leaves to the base of the rose by sewing them in place with the yarn needle.

Optional: Stem
To create a stem for your rose, you can crochet a long chain (for example, ch 20-30) and attach it to the base of the rose. Alternatively, if you prefer a sturdier stem, use floral wire wrapped in green yarn and attach it securely to the base of the rose.

Final Assembly:
Once you’ve finished crocheting the petals, leaves, and stem (if using), arrange everything to your liking. Sew the leaves to the base of the rose, and if desired, use floral wire for the stem to create a more realistic look.

Tips:
Use different yarn colors to create multi-colored roses or even add a bit of sparkle with metallic or glitter yarn.
Experiment with different yarn weights for a larger or smaller flower.
Make a bunch of these flowers and sew them onto a headband, make them into a bouquet, or turn them into brooches or hairpins for versatile accessories.
This crochet rose head pattern is a great addition to any project, adding a touch of beauty and elegance wherever it’s used! Happy crocheting!
