You will be making 3 different roses but the instructions are the same except for the amount of chains you make initially.

For the small rose: Chain 41 For the medium rose: Chain 51 For the large rose: Chain 81

Row 1: dc in 4th ch from hook, ch2, 2 dc in same space. *ch1, sk2 chs. 2dc, ch2, 2dc in next ch. Repeat from * all the way to the end of ch. ch1 and turn.

Row2: sl st into first ch2 sp. ch3, 6 dc in same sp. *sc in ch1 sp. 7 dc in next ch2 sp. Repeat from * all the way to the end. Leave a long tail. Fasten off.

Roll the your work onto itself to create the shape of a rose. You will need to do a bit of arranging so the petals cooperate. Once you are happy with the shape achieved, thread the tail through and along the bottom of the rose so it holds its shape.

The petals will be as follows:

the small rose will have 11 petals

the medium rose will have 13 petals

the large rose will have 21 petals

There is not secret to making these twirly vines! I basically chained random lengths, skipped the 1st ch, and sc 2 in each ch all the way to the end. I just made sure I had various lengths in all the different colors.

In addition to the wreath itself, here are all the different parts I created! I love the colors!
