Dense

Rosebud stitch

This stitch makes a dense fabric covered with beautiful rosebuds and leaves that look like appliqués. The flowers and the background can be worked in different colors, so the stitch is a good way to experiment with color and to use up leftover yarn.

Rosebud stitch has been a favorite with crocheters around the world since it was first published on June 24, 2016. It works for cozy blankets, sweet children's garments, and accessories. Suitable for intermediate crocheters.
