Method
 

Pattern Instructions
  1. Materials and tools prepared for this project.
  2. Row 1: Create the Base
  3. In a magic ring (AM), work 12 single crochets (mb). Pull the ring tight and join with a slip stitch (mbss) to the first mb to form a tight circle. Your work will resemble a sturdy base, ready for the next layer of your Fiore Romantico a Strati all’Uncinetto 🌿. (12 sts)
  4. Row 2: Increase the Base
  5. Chain 1 and then crochet 2 single crochets (mb) in each stitch around to increase the size of your base. This will help support the layered petals. Join with a slip stitch (mbss) to the first mb, and at this stage, your circular base should be nice and round. (24 sts)
  6. Row 3: Start the Inner Petals
  7. Moving to the back of the base, create 6 loops of 5 chains (cat), securing each loop with a slip stitch (mbss) into every 4th single crochet (mb) of the base. This forms the foundation for your inner petals, adding an elegant touch to your Fiore Romantico a Strati all’Uncinetto 🌿. Your work should start to have some height and structure.
  8. Row 4: Shape the Inner Petals
  9. In each of the 6 loops, work the following: 1 single crochet (mb), 1 half double crochet (mma), 3 double crochets (ma), 2 double crochets (mad), 3 double crochets (ma), 1 half double crochet (mma), and 1 single crochet (mb). This creates beautifully rounded inner petals. Close each petal with a slip stitch (mbss) and model gently for shape.
  10. Row 5: Attach Outer Petals
  11. Next, secure your yarn at the back of the rose petals with a slip stitch (mbss). Start creating 6 larger loops of 8 chains (cat), placing one behind each inner petal. This adds depth and dimension to your design, enhancing the Fiore Romantico a Strati all’Uncinetto 🌿's overall beauty.
  12. Row 6: Shape the Outer Petals
  13. In each of the outer loops, work: 1 single crochet (mb), 1 half double crochet (mma), 3 double crochets (ma), 5 double crochets (mad), 3 double crochets (ma), 1 half double crochet (mma), and 1 single crochet (mb). Finish each outer petal with a single crochet (mb) at the tip, adding 2 chains (cat) for emphasis on the petal's shape. Close with a slip stitch (mbss).
  14. Row 7: Decorate with Leaves
  15. For the decorative leaves, start by chaining 9 (cat) for each leaf. From the second chain, work 1 single crochet (mb), 1 half double (mma), 4 double crochets (ma), 1 half double (mma), and 1 single crochet (mb). Crochet back across the other side of the chain, then close with a slip stitch (mbss). Ensure 6 primary leaves are made.
  16. Row 8: Create Small Leaves
  17. Make 6 smaller leaves by chaining 6 (cat) and working the same sequence from the second chain: 1 single crochet (mb), 1 half double (mma), and 4 double crochets (ma), then closing with slip stitch (mbss). Once done, distribute these leaves between the rose and white petals to add a lovely organic feel to your Fiore Romantico a Strati all’Uncinetto 🌿.
  18. Row 9: Central Flower Detail
  19. For the central flower, work into a magic ring (AM) and crochet 6 single crochets (mb). From each stitch for the petals, chain 3 (cat) and then place 2 double crochets (ma) in the same stitch. Then, chain 3 (cat) and slip stitch (mbss) in the next stitch. Repeat this until you have 6 small petals formed, which will complete the centre of your flower.
  20. Step 10: Assembly
  21. Layer the 6 pink petals over the 6 white petals and intersperse the sage green leaves in between. Secure all layers at the back by sewing them together firmly. Finally, attach the central white flower to the middle. Your Fiore Romantico a Strati all’Uncinetto 🌿 is coming together beautifully!
  22. Step 11: Finishing Touches
  23. Weave in all loose ends with a yarn needle and trim any excess yarn. Lightly block the petals for a clean finish, arranging them to make sure they sit nicely. Your charming Fiore Romantico a Strati all’Uncinetto 🌿 is now complete and ready to brighten up your space!

Note

Gauge and sizing: Gauge & Sizing Notes Don't skip the gauge swatch! Ensuring your tension is correct is crucial for your Fiore Romantico a Strati all’Uncinetto 🌿, as the size of your floral motif will be directly influenced by your crochet gauge. Aiming for a standard gauge of about 4 inches (10 cm) square will help you achieve the right fit and visual appeal, but keep in mind this is a general guideline. If your tension swatch doesn’t match, adjust by trying a different hook size or altering your yarn tension. To increase the overall size of your piece, you can make your initial chain in multiples of 4 , while ensuring any additional rounds of petals follow this guideline too. Happy crocheting!
