Looking for a simple flower pattern, I found this sweet rose on Attic 24– always a great source of crochet inspiration. Making it up in different weight yarns creates such completely different effects. For the delicate pink rose I used DK cotton and a 3.5 hook.
A cluster of these small flowers would make a sweet corsage.
For the other, slightly chunkier rose, I used Rowan Creative Focus worsted which is a gorgeous aran weight Alpaca and wool yarn. I love the dusky pink shade ~ this would look great on a chunky winter jumper, coat or scarf.
I have written up the pattern on the Extras page , so you can make one for yourself with any spare yarn you may have.
Enjoy making!
