How to crochet a little rose

Hello to all, today we go to a slightly more demanding explanation than a simple bracelet. But I must say, however, that the satisfaction of seeing a masterpiece from your hands will be a priceless emotion. You just have to arm yourself with a healthy dose of patience and much desire and passion I think you already have. This applies to all the other crocheted flowers I will present and hope to explain to you the best. Today's is a beautiful crocodile jar
.

The work is composed by

petals of various sizes to create the flower and buds, leaves, chalice and stem.

Each flower completed in all its parts is then inserted into a jar with inside of the sponge for dried flowers. If you like, you can also leave them bare and place them in a glass jar.

Do what your imagination suggests and use the colors that inspire you.

Rosettes are of various sizes to give more realism to composition. Keep in mind that every flower I have created is copied from nature so to make it as real as possible it is composed of various parts to assemble between them and not following any technical scheme for me it is more difficult to create the explanation to realize the flower.

Ok we start!

Explanation of the rosellin composed of 8 petals.

There are 5 2-stroke petals and 3 3-stroke petals

For the 2-round petal: Start 4 chains and in the first make: first lap 7 double crochet

run the work and underneath doub do: Second round 2 double crochet – 1 triple crochet - 3 triple crochet at a point - 3 triple crochet at one point - one triple crochet - two double crochet.

Get off slip stitch until the first start chain

Now take a piece of galvanized iron wire (a bit longer than the petal), approach it and join it with the single crochet all around.

stretch the iron wire along with the petal to give it the right shape

Twist the remaining iron wire 3 times and cut the pieces over.

Now you should have a petal in your hands

For the 3-lapse petals, I'll explain the third lap.

2 double crochet-3 triple crochet-3 triple crochet in a point-3 triple crochet in a point-3 triple crochet-two double crochet.

following the same procedure as the other.

Once you have the eight petals you need to sew them to each other at the ends, starting with the smaller petals that will be in the center to unite then the larger ones and then get rosellin

Five-petal rosebud explanation

It consists of 5 five-seater petals sewing each other at the base.

The same procedure of the other rosellin

Explanation of the 2 petals bud.

There are only two 2-stroke petals.

I put the jar with a 8-petals rosette, 3 pet petals, 2 petals buds, and a bud with a glass. You of course can modify it according to your creation, mine is just an example. Okay now that we have all the roselline we go to the explanation of the chalice.

Start 6 locked chains in the circle and inside: First lap 15 double crochet. Second lap 15 double crochet (each 3 points make 7 chains and in these chains make: 2 single crochet one half double crochet, 3 double crochet. One slip stitch a total of 5 times).

Now that you've done all the goblets for the number of rosellins you've gone to explain the leaves that may seem difficult until you understand the working mechanism.

The leaves are grouped 3 by the iron wire that holds them together. Now I get the explanation.

Start 11 chains and make: 2 single crochet, 2 half double crochet, 2 double crochet, 2 half double crochet and 2 single crochet.

Repeat equal to the opposite side

Now cut a piece of iron wire three times a leaf lap plus a piece to make the stem of the joining rod.

Put it on the edge of the leaf and join it working around the lower points.

Now without closing the job, reshape a leaf when it is finished to drop half-leaf with very low points and join the iron wire with the low points.

Also make the third leaf the same way.

Remember to always model each work with your hands to give it the right shape

Now with the iron wire that has advanced it, twist it to give it the shape of a small stem that you will wrap with cotton working around the chains. Then attach it to the root of the rosellin.

Now you have to cut the right thickness and the right length a piece of plastic wire to make the main stem where to put everything. If you have done as I need 7 stems, now a stem of the stem bend twice to form a small ball, and then use it with pliers, it will pivot and hold the rosellins and buds.

Insert the bud and then the goblet that will be sewn in the stem, now join the 3 leaves on the stem by twisting the pieces of iron wire advancing from the jaw and flatten well to the stem.

Now dress them all with the chains that you will work around the stem starting from the chalice where you will insert the first point. When you arrive at the end of the stem, close to close if you have to leave it in a bunch or if you have to put it in a jar with the sponge. In this case you will leave more iron wire uncovered.

 Now you will also find your small masterpiece in your hands.

For my part I am happy to have shared this creation with you.

At the next creation bye!
