Materials Needed:
Before we begin, let's gather all the materials needed for this project. You will need:
- 5mm crochet hook
- Yarn of your choice
- Scissors
Step 1: Making the Chain
To start, make a slip knot on your crochet hook. Then, crochet a chain that is 61 stitches long. If you are new to crochet, a chain stitch is created by pulling the yarn through the loop on your hook. Repeat this process until you have 61 stitches.
Step 2: Creating the V-Stitches
Once you have completed the chain, chain five stitches again. Now, you will skip five stitches and double crochet into the 60th stitch. This creates the first V-stitch. Continue skipping two stitches and double crocheting into the third stitch until the end of the chain.
Step 3: Making the Double Crochets
After creating the V-stitches, chain three and double crochet into the same stitch. This forms a V-shape pattern. Repeat this process of skipping two stitches, double crocheting into the third stitch, and chaining three until the end of the chain. This will create more V-stitch patterns.
Step 4: Finishing the Rose
Once you reach the end of the chain, chain three and turn your work. Make five double crochets into the first V-stitch. Then, single crochet into the next stitch. Repeat this pattern of six double crochets into the V-stitches and single crochet into the gaps until the last two V-stitches. In these two V-stitches, make ten double crochets. Finish off with a single crochet and secure the yarn with a knot.
Step 5: Making the Chain for the Necklace
To create the chain for the necklace, make a chain that is long enough to wrap around your neck and tie, approximately 60 centimeters. This will serve as the base for your choker.
Step 6: Attaching the Rose to the Necklace
With a smaller crochet hook, insert it into the loops of the rose and then through the chain. Pull the chain through the loops to secure the rose in the center of the necklace. Tie a knot to keep it in place.
