This knitted rose flower is relatively easy because it’s just back and forth garter stitch that is later gathered, rolled, and sewn. As always I have a YouTube tutorial video for any tricky parts.

Note: The Red Heart with Love Stripes yarn has long color changes in it. If you cast on starting at the light pink section, you’ll get the nice highlight around the top edge of the rose. The yarn gets darker as you stitch, so it creates the nice depth as you proceed towards the base of the rose.

Enjoy,
