The pattern wasn’t originally mine, and even the so-called original pattern I linked in the first blog post wasn’t the actual original pattern. Because of this confusing mess of patterns and alteration patters, I’ve decided to make a somewhat clearer post about the Strip Method Crochet Rose -pattern, with additional photos, in case anyone wishes to recreate the exact “perfect” crochet rose featured here. Abbreviations: Materials: Yarn: I used Novita’s crochet yarn for this particular rose. Hook: Depending on thickness (weight) of your yarn, use whichever hook suitable.

I have many vintage craft magazines and I came across a picture of this cute pattern.

Except when I read the pattern, it did not made sense. There is no way the instructions was going to make the bow pattern in the picture. So I figured out how to make the pattern and now here is the instructions for my shawl. 16 ounces Worst Weight Yarn Size J hook Row 1: Chain 67, sc in the second chain from hook, sc in remaining chains across.
