-
Chain 15.
-
Go to the fourth chain from the hook, and work 2 double crochets.
Note: The turning chains count as the first double crochet. -
All the way down the chain, work 3 double crochets in each chain.
-
Leave about 10 inches of yarn for your tail and cut.
-
Pull tail through the last stitch and tug to secure.
-
With your fingers, wind up the corkscrew piece you've created into a rose shape, working the natural curves.
-
Flip the rose over so you're working on the underside of the rose. With your crochet hook or a tapestry needle, pull through a few stitches here and there to secure the petals.
-
Use the rest of the tail to attach this rose to another project or trim the tail to finish the rose.

My favorite color rose is yellow. It's a shame that they are associated with apologies because I just think they are super pretty!

Wow what a great way to make a rose bud! This How to Crochet a Rose video is so helpful. I have wondered if there was a easy way to make roses and now I know how thanks to your video. Thank you so much, who knew making roses could be so easy? I've made the curly cues for hair ties, but had no idea you can make roses with them. Thank you so much for this free how to video.
