These roses are so fun you’re going to want to knit a whole bouquet!
They are knit entirely in the round in 2 pieces (Petal Layer A & B). To finish, simply slide Layer B over the top of Layer A and then pop into shape by pushing upward on your bottom layer which pulls the petals together. To add a stem push a branch into the hole underneath the rose. BIG THANKS to my son for coming up with the branch stem idea!

I enjoy the whole process of knitting the Rose, from picking the yarns to use, adding mohair or not, tromping through the woods looking for the perfect stick to mount the rose, and seeing the delight from gifting them. (FrankieBarnhart)
