crocheted rosettes
Pattern Details
Coco Chanel famously said “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” We’d like to propose “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and add at least one rosette somewhere” as the new adage to live by.
Beloved by horse girls and pageant queens everywhere, the rosette has become a staple material grrrl accessory. After making hundreds together at events, we shared our complete guide to making them in every medium in the Q3 2025 issue, so you’re never caught without one on hand.
