Long overdue pattern for crochet rosette.

Hello! I just remembered that I never gave you the pattern for the crochet rosette I designed for Coats Crafts, published on their website a while ago. About time I did something about it don't you think? If you'd like to go straight to the coats crafts site for their pdf download, skip to here, and bobs your uncle.

(I haven't forgotten I promised to give you the pattern for the Sarah London Crochet scarf, it's there on my to-do list, promise).

Here we go then, the pattern for the crocheted version of the rosette, pictured above.

I used:

1 ball of Patons 100% cotton 4ply in colour Limestone 716 (view other colours here)

size 2mm/B-1 crochet hook

Pattern for the ruffle section:

Make 11 chain

Foundation row: 1 treble into fourth chain from your hook, 1 treble into each chain to end, turn (you should have 9 trebles in your row)

Step 1: chain 3, 1 treble into FIFTH chain from your hook, 1 treble into next each of the next four single chains below, slip stitch into next chain below, turn your crochet around (so you'll be going back across the trebles you've just made), now make 5 single crochet stitches (NOT trebles) to the end of that row (making sure you go into the top of the turning chain at the end)

Step 2: chain 3, 1 treble into fifth chain from your hook, 8 trebles across row (making sure to go into the top of the turning chain at the end of the row), turn. (You should have 9 trebles in your row just completed, be sure to check this)

Step 3: chain 3, 1 treble into the BACK of the fifth chain from your hook, 1 treble into the BACK of each of the 8 remaining stitches in that row(making sure you go into the top of the turning chain at the end of the row),turn. (You should have 9 trebles in your row. By going into the back of each stitch in this row, you are creating a ridge, so you can get a crisp fold in your ruffle).

Step 4: chain 3, 1 treble into the fifth chain from your hook, 8 trebles across (making sure you go into the top of the turning chain at the end of the row), turn. (You should have 9 trebles in your row)

Step 5: chain 3, 1 treble into the fifth chain from your hook, 8 trebles across (making sure you go into the top of the turning chain at the end of the row), turn. (You should have 9 trebles in your row)

Step 6: chain 3, 1 treble into the fifth chain from your hook, 4 trebles across, slip stitch into the top of the next treble, turn your crochet around (so you'll be going back across the stitches you've just crocheted), 5 SINGLE CROCHET to the end of the row (making sure you go into the top of the turning chain at the end of the row), turn

Repeat step 2 to step 6 sixteen times

Then repeat step 2 to step 4 once

Bind off

Well done! You've completed your ruffle for your rosette.

When laid out on a flat surface, your crochet should form a circle, like this:

Before you do anything more to your ruffle section, make the ribbons.

Pattern for the crochet ribbons.

Using the same hook, and the same yarn as you did for the ruffle, make 8 chain

Foundation row: 1 treble into fourth chain from your hook, 1 treble into each chain across row, turn. (You should have six trebles in your row)

Step 1: 1 treble into FIFTH chain from your hook, 1 treble into each remaining trebles in the row (making sure you work one teble into the top of the turning chain at the end of the row), turn . (You should have six trebles in your row)

Repeat step 1 fourteen more times

Next you will be working on getting your two pointy bits, that hang at the bottom of your ribbon.

Step 1: chain 1, single crochet into second chain from your hook, single crochet into next two chains, turn your crochet so that you will be working back across the stitches you have just made. (You will return to work on the other pointy bit, when you have finished this pointy bit)

Step 2: chain 1, single crochet into second chain from hook, single crochet to end of row, turn

Step 3: chain 1, single crochet into second chain from hook, singe crochet to end of row, turn

Step 4: chain 1, single crochet into THIRD chain from hook, single crochet to end of row, turn

Step 5: chain 1, single crochet into SECOND chain from hook, single crochet to end of row, turn

Step 6: chain 1, single crochet into THIRD chain from hook, bind off

Now rejoin your yarn to the outside edge of the first row of your second pointy bit.

Chain 1, single crochet into second chain from your hook, single crochet to end of this row, turn

Repeat step 2 to step 6 once

Sew in the ends around your two pointy bits, but leave the ends at the top of the ribbon, because you can use these to sew your ribbon on to your ruffle.

Now make a second ribbon.

Fantastic! Well done! Now you're ready to assemble your rosette, following the same instructions I gave for assembling the knitted rosette, which you can find by clicking here.

Well I'm off to my knitting group, hope you enjoy crocheting your rosette, if you make one. Ta-ra for now! Love Vanessa xxx

Thank you Vanessa - the prize will go to one of my lovely cats for being so greedy! Always after food he is. I can just see him in his own rosette collar, a snazzy little red one would suit him I think. Thanks for putting the pattern up for us all. A lovely and inventive idea. A winning one in fact!
