Crochet: Centifolia Rose Accessories

Rose Necklace / Brooch Base
Flower accessories are always pretty for any occasion, I've made some roses and leaves and combine it and glued it into a feltef fabric. The results is pretty nice but I'm still deciding whether I'm gonna make this one into a brooch or a necklace.

Rose Hair Clip
The roses also look pretty on a hair clip, just made a bunch of roses in a different size or color and glue it into a hair clip.The pattern on this rose can be seen at Crochet Accessories book by Ratu Sri Hastutie. Below is my version of the pattern using US terms.

Material:
- crochet hook #4 (2.5mm)
- yarn
- glue

Rose Pattern:
Round 1: Make 30 ch and make 1 dc in the 3rd chain from hook and dc in the next ch and then make 2 ch and sl st in the 6th ch from hook.

Round 2: Make 3 ch and dc in the next 2 ch, make 2 ch and sl st in the next ch, make 4 ch and 1 tr in the next 4 ch, make 3 ch and sl st in the next ch, make 4 ch and 1 tr in the next 6ch, make 3 ch and sl st in the next ch, make 5 ch and 1 tr int the next 8 ch, make 4 ch and sl st in the last ch. Fasten off.

Roll the crochet to make the flower.

Leaf Pattern:

Make 13 ch and 1 sc in the 2nd ch from hook and the next 2 ch [3 sc], make 1 dc in the next 6 ch [6 dc], make 1 sc in the last 3 ch [3 sc], make 5 ch and sl st in the 2nd ch from hook and the next 3 ch [4 sl st], continue to the other side make 1 sc in the next 3 ch [3 sc], make 1 dc in the next 6 ch [6 dc], and make 1 sc in the last 3 ch [3 sc]. Fasten off.



You can also make the rose into this cute stud earrings. Just use a smaller crochet hook like #1-#2 (1-1.5 mm) and do a fewer rose petals.

ch = chain
dc = double crochet
sc = single crochet
sl st = slip stich
tr = treble crochet
