The flower is quite large

We DO NOT count the chains
Make a chain    
60cm/24 inches long for a large flower
50cm/20 inches long for a medium flower
40cm/16 inches long for a small flower
30cm/12 inches long for a mini flower
Here are some notes from testers -
Lisa writes - I did your large rose with a 5-ply bulky weight yarn (Premier yarns serenity chunky weight) and a J-hook (6.00mm), used 125 feet and I love it.

------------------------------
LaVonne says - For the large rose I used RH red with a G hook and it took 1/2 once to make. This is going to be a good decorative pattern for bags and hats 
----------------------------
Marci from Crochetville says - I used an f hook and baby weight yarn approx 12 yards.

A wonderful friend has taken her own progress photo's. See here for more details

I used very little yarn. Red Heart white size 4.
A size 3.75 / E hook.
I made a small rose about 3 inches across.
The pattern is very easy to follow and I enjoyed making and because it was so easy I will end up using again. It will look great on headbands, hats, scarfs and even some purses. Thank you for taking the time to make such a great tutorial.

I made a small rose with red heart yarn and a sz H hook. easy to read instructions made it fun, it was very fast to make and looks better than a lot of rose patterns out there. It took about 1/2 ounce of yarn for the small one. it measures about 3 1/2 inches across. I did take pics, but it wont let me upload them here. thanks much for the easy pattern for a nice rose.

I have blogged this tutorial and given credit back to you, hope you don't mind. It is a very easy pattern to follow and having the youtube clip as reference makes it a super easy tutorial. My daughter loves these flowers and wears them in her hair with a clip.

In your pattern you have a row 4. In going back to the video obviously there is no row 4, just repeating the stitches in row 3 to the end. Just thought I'd mention it. Love the rose:)

In the written pattern it shows a row 4, when there is no row 4 just a repeat of the petals to the end of Row 3. Just thought I'd mention it..love the rose:)Tks
