Materials
4mm hook DK/8ply yarn or yarn of your choice and recommended hook
Scissors
Darning needle

US Terms
Ch - Chain
DC - Double crochet
St(s) - Stitches
Hk - hook
You can make your scarf long or short.  See above photos on how you can wear your finished scarf.

I have many flower tutorials on my blog or you could try this Ruffled Flower done by Amanda Cari, here’s her tutorial on her flower,  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdsblKZXPQ0   I’ve made my one the size of my hand but you can choose how big  or small you wish your flower to be.  You can use any of your favorite flower pattern  Or this is a nice free rosette pattern at this link, http://cache.lionbrand.com/cgi-bin/patternFinder.fcgi?language=&store=%2Fstores%2Flionbrand&search=1&searchText=crochet+rosette+flower&submit.x=0&submit.y=0

I’ve made my scarf about 2 inch / 5 cms wide and 78 inch/ 200 cms long, which wraps around my neck about three or four times.. But you can make yours as wide and long or short as you like.

make a chain as wide  as you want your scarf,  but for demonstration I’m doing as follows.

Row 1: Make a slip knot and ch8,  dc into the 4th ch from hook and dc the remaining chs.  Turn

Row 2: ch3,   Dc in each st to the last st, remembering to dc into the chain 3 from the row below

Repeat Row 2 until you have your desired length for your scarf.
FO and weave in your yarn ends.

Optional:  You can make a fringe each end of scarf.  Cut strips of yarn the desired length.  Level each end and attach each strip by inserting your crochet hook under two loops of top of edge and looping your strand of yarn around the hook and pulling through,  yarning over the two strands and pulling through the loop.  Pull up tight and your first fringe is now done.  Make all the others the same way.

Attach your flower
Make your desired flower.
Make tab/band the same as the dc scarf.  My one is 6sts across.  I did 4 rows but it all depends on your yarn and how bulky it is to the width and length of your tab.

You need to make it slightly shorter than the width of your scarf or the flower might fall off.  Sow one end to the back of your flower.  Then lay your scarf under it and see if it’s the right length.  If it is then sow the other end on the edge of the bottom of the flower.


Now it’s good to go and wear it.

You could do this flower in any yarn and needle and any length you desire.  If you’re going make a few of these Rosette flowers, it’s a good idea to write down how many chains you did and what length they were.

Single crochet or Crab Stitch or Rope Stitch as it is also known as, works from left to right.  So you’ll be doing single crochet backwards. 

Insert the hook, from front to back, in the next stitch to the right.  Making sure the right side of your work is facing you. Yarn Over and draw the yarn through the stitch.  Yarn over and draw the yarn through the 2 loops on the hook.  One reverse single crochet is now complete. 

US Terms
SC - Single Crochet
RSC - Reverse Single Crochet
Ch – Chain

Row 1: Make a slip knot and ch for 60cms or whatever length you wish.

Row 2: Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in every ch across, ch1 DO NOT TURN because you will be working backwards

Row 3: Ch1 counts as first sc. RSC across all your sc stitches from row 2 to the end.  Fasten off leaving a tail 30 cms long.

Sowing up your flower

Wrap/roll your flower little at a time and sow bottom edge.  Sow it every three stitches and through two layers, then wrap a bit more and so on.  Every now and then flip your flower over and check top of flower to see if the RSC part is level or how you want it.  When you get to the end sew in your ends or leave a tail for attaching to a hat, bag, scarf and I am sure you could find a lot of other items to attach your flower

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
