This is such a quick and easy pattern that’s perfect for adding a little handmade touch to your bag.

As you can see, it looks lovely in this color and I really believe it would look just as beautiful in other colors!

Instructions

The Flower

With red and a 4.5mm hook, make a magic ring.

Round 1: Make 12 dc in the magic ring, then sl st to close the round. (12 sts) = 12

Round 2: ch 3 (counts as 1 dc), dc in the same st, (2 dc) x 11, sl st = 24

Round 3: ch 3 (counts as 1 dc), dc in the same stitch (2 dc) x 23, sl st = 48

Fasten off, leave a long tail, but leave both ends un-weaved—the long tail and the magic ring tail.

To create the rose, roll the circle tightly and then wrap the long tail around it, above the magic ring to keep it secure.

Use the 2 tails to make a double knot and then flip the bottom part of the rolled circle over the top part to create the rosebud.

The Leave

With green, ch 17.

Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc, dc, (2 dc), dc, hdc, sc, sl st in next 2 chs, sc, hdc, dc, (2 dc), dc, hdc, (3 sc) in last ch, turn your work around with the bottom up so you can work on the other side of the chain, and continue from there, hdc, dc, (2 dc), dc, hdc, sc, sl st in next 2 chs, sc, hdc, dc, (2 dc), dc, hdc, (2 sc) in the last chain, sl st into the first sc you made in the row to close it = 38

Fasten off and weave in all ends.

The Stem

With green and a 4.5mm hook, make a slip knot.

Row 1: ch 45, fasten off, leave both yarn ends.

The Sepal

With green and a 4.5mm hook, make a magic ring.

Round 1:10 sc into magic ring = 10

Round 3: * ch 4, sc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc, dc, sk 2, sl st in next * x 5, fasten off, leave a long tail, we will use it to sew the sepals to the rose = 5 sepals.

Round 2: (inc, sc) x 5, sl st = 15

Make sure not to weave in the magic ring tail, we will need it.

How to Assemble

Pull the stem ends through the slip stitches of the leaf, one end through one slip stitch. If you thread both ends through just one slip stitch, the leaf will slide off the stem.

Once done, use a needle to pull the yarn end from the stem through the magic ring of one sepal.

Once through, knot it together with the magic ring’s tail, to make a double knot and secure the sepals to the stem.

Cut the ends shorter or weave them in.

Do the same on the other sepal.

Now use the long yarn tail from the sepals to sew them to the rosebud.

Use pins to secure it to the flower and use back & forth simple stitches.

Leave the tips of the sepals detached so they can curl up.
