Detailed Crochet Pattern

1. The Rose Flower (Red Yarn)

The rose is worked as a flat scalloped strip and then rolled into shape.

Foundation: Chain 47. (Increase or decrease by multiples of 10 for different sizes).
Row 1 (V-Stitch Base): 1. Skip 5 chains, work 1 Double Crochet (dc) in the 6th chain.

2. [Chain 3, 1 dc] in the same space to complete the first V-stitch.

3. Skip 2 chains, work 1 dc, ch 3, 1 dc in the next chain. Repeat this across the entire foundation chain.
Row 2 (Petals):
1. Chain 3, turn. In the first V-stitch space, work 3 dc. (Total 4 stitches including ch-3).
2. In the gap between V-stitches, work 1 Single Crochet (sc).
3. In the next V-stitch space, work 5 dc. Work 1 sc in the next gap.
4. In the next V-stitch space, work 6 dc. Work 1 sc in the next gap.
5. In all remaining V-stitch spaces, work 7 dc, followed by 1 sc in each gap.
Finishing: Fasten off, leaving a long tail (approx. 10-12 inches) for sewing.

2. Shaping the Rose

Roll the petal strip starting from the smaller petals (the beginning of Row 2) toward the larger petals.
Use a tapestry needle and the long yarn tail to sew through all layers at the base, ensuring the flower is secure and doesn't unravel.

3. The Leaf Base (Green Yarn)

Round 1: Start with a Magic Circle. Work 10 dc into the circle. Join with a sl st to the first dc. [10 stitches]
Round 2: Chain 3 (counts as 1 dc). Work 2 dc in every stitch around. Join with a sl st. [20 stitches]
Leaf 1: Chain 9.
1. Skip 1 ch, sl st in next.
2. 1 sc, 1 Half Double Crochet (hdc), 1 dc in the next 3 chains, 1 hdc, 1 sc.
3. Sl st back into the same base stitch on the round.
Leaf 2: Repeat the process for Leaf 1 in the same base stitch to create twin leaves.
Hanging Cord: From the same spot, Chain 40. Sl st back into the base to form a loop. Fasten off.

4. Assembly

Place the leaf base against the bottom of the rose.
Sew the leaf base securely to the rose using the green yarn tail, ensuring the leaves are visible from the sides.

Tutor's Suggestions & Information

Custom Sizing: For a small rose, start with 37 chains. For a large "giant" rose, go up to 67 chains.
Multi-Purpose: The tutor suggests that if you don't want a keychain, the flower alone is beautiful when attached to hairbands or frocks.
Color Choice: While red is classic, the tutor encourages using customized colors to match specific bags or outfits.

Pro-Tip

When rolling the rose, don't roll it too tightly. A slightly loose roll allows the petals to "bloom" and look more realistic. Before sewing, adjust the layers until you are satisfied with the flower's appearance.

Conclusion

This crochet rose keychain is a quick yet rewarding project that combines basic stitches to create a sophisticated result. Its 3D texture and functional cord make it a standout accessory for anyone looking to add a touch of handmade elegance to their daily life. Happy crocheting!
