How to Assemble Your Crochet Rose

Assembling the Rose Leaves

- Repeat for the other two leaves.
- Wrap all three leaves together around an iron wire using yarn.
Assembling the Rose Flower and Leaf
- Insert the flower rod (stem) into the middle of the small petals and bend the end of the stem to secure it.
- Apply hot melt adhesive to the small petals and wrap them around the stem.
- Continue by adding the medium petals, then the large petals, securing each layer with hot melt adhesive and trimming any excess yarn tails.
- Insert the stem into the middle of the rose sepals. Apply hot melt adhesive to the sepals and firmly attach them to the base of the flower.
- Take green yarn and begin wrapping it tightly around the entire flower stem.
- As you wrap, incorporate the assembled leaf section, continuing to wrap the green yarn all the way to the end of the stem.
- Cut the long tail of the green yarn and secure it with hot melt adhesive.
