A Christmas Rose for Day 23. This pattern is featured on DROPS Christmas Workshop 2011.
Make a magic circle using a 4mm hook and Dk. I used Patons Smoothie Dk.
ROUND 1: 1dc magic circle, * 2ch, 1dc in ch-ring *, repeat from *-* a total of 4 times and finish with 2 ch and 1ss in first dc from beg of round = 5 ch-loops.
ROUND 2: 1ch, continue to crochet as follows in each ch-loop: 1dc, 3tr and 1dc, finish with 1ss in first dc from beg of round. Fold petals forward and work from the back.
ROUND 3: 1ch, * work 1dc in dc from 1st round (i.e. crochet on the back of the flower leaves around sts from previous round, tighten the thread), 4ch *, repeat from *-* a total of 5 times and finish with 1ss in first dc from beg of round.
ROUND 4: 1ch, continue to crochet as follows in each ch-loop: 1dc, 5tr and 1dc, finish with 1ss in first dc from beg of round.
ROUND 5: 1ch, * work 1dc in dc from 3rd round (i.e. crochet on the back of the 2 flower leaves around sts from previous round, tighten the thread), 5ch *, repeat from *-* a total of 5 times and finish with 1ss in first dc from beg of round.
ROUND 6: 1ch, continue to crochet as follows in each ch-loop: 1dc, 2tr, 1ch, 3dtr, 1ch, 2tr and 1dc, finish with 1ss in first dc from beg of round. Cut and fasten the thread.
I'm thinking of making another rose and rosette from Day 22 in white.
