Instructions
This pattern creates a watch band with a central large rose and leaves, and a delicate floral base band. Adjust the length of the band by adding or removing small flower motifs to fit your wrist.
Small Flower Motif (Make in Cream and Light Pink, alternating)
Start: Ch 4, sl st to first ch to form a ring.
Rnd 1 (Petals): (Ch 3, 2 dc into the ring, ch 3, sl st into the ring) Repeat 4 times. You should have 4 petals.
Fasten off, leaving a long tail for joining if preferred, or weave in ends.
Large Rose (Deep Pink)
Start: Ch 25.
Row 1: Work 3 dc into the 3rd ch from hook, *skip 1 ch, sl st into next ch, ch 2, 3 dc into the same ch (where you just did the sl st)* Repeat from * across the chain. You will be creating small scallops along the chain.
Finish: Fasten off, leaving a long tail. Carefully roll the crocheted strip from one end, gathering the base stitches together to form a rose shape. Use the long tail and tapestry needle to secure the layers of the rose in place, sewing through the bottom to prevent unraveling.
Leaves (Forest Green, Make 2)
Start: Ch 6.
Row 1: Sl st into the 2nd ch from hook, sc in the next ch, hdc in the next ch, dc in the next ch, hdc in the next ch, sc in the last ch.
Finish: Fasten off, leaving a tail for sewing.
Assembly
Create the Watch Band Base: Arrange your small flower motifs (alternating Cream and Light Pink) into a strip. The central part under where the large rose will sit should be approximately two motifs wide. The ends of the band should narrow to a single motif wide. Carefully join these motifs together using your tapestry needle and matching yarn, or by slip stitching them together as you crochet. Ensure the band is long enough to fit your wrist, leaving approximately a 0.5-inch gap at each end for attaching to your watch pins.
Form Pin Loops: At each end of your assembled band, create a loop large enough for your watch pin to pass through. You can do this by chaining a small length (e.g., ch 5-7, depending on your watch pin size) and slip stitching it to the opposite side of the band end, forming a sturdy loop. Reinforce by working a few sc into the chain loop.
Attach Large Rose: Position the deep pink large rose in the center of the widest part of your assembled watch band. Using the long tail and tapestry needle, securely sew the rose onto the band.
Attach Leaves: Position one green leaf on either side of the large rose, slightly tucked underneath its petals. Sew them securely in place using their tails.
Attach to Watch: Carefully remove the pins from your watch. Thread one pin through the loop at one end of your crocheted band, then attach it to the watch face. Repeat for the other side. Your elegant floral watch band is now complete!
