I love thread crochet, so when I saw these cute thread crochet rings on Pinterest last year I HAD to make them! I’ve already made all three in every color of thread I have and sizes for me and for my girls!
This is ring 1 done with a smaller hook to create a smaller flower
And ring 2 using the hook the pattern calls for
I actually used the technique from the first rings (creating longer loops and connecting them in the back) with this doily earring flower!
Then I found this AMAZING and totally gorgeous ruffled ring! SERIOUSLY I’m going to make about 3 dozen of these!
So I thought my crochet rose would be perfect as a thread crochet ring! I love it!
Thread Crochet Flower ring
US 7 hook (1.5mm) – up or down a size or two is fine, it will just change the final size a bit
crochet thread
This flower can be rolled tight or as loose as you’d like it, so the size also depends on that.
Chain 53
Row 1: DC in 5th Chain from hook *CH 1, skip 1 (DC-CH-DC) in next ch (V stitch made). repeat from * across to end, turn.
Row 2: CH 3 (counts as DC) 5 DC in CH space, *SC in next CH-1 space, 6 DC in next CH-1 space (shell stitch made). Repeat from *, ending in 6 DC in last CH-1 space. Fasten off, but leave a good LONG tail for anchoring the flower. 6inches or so.
Finishing
Starting at that end roll the flower up, this should have a natural twist so it should be easy!
Threading the tail onto the needle and weave across the base creating x’s all around. make sure not to pull TOO tightly!
Add it to a blank ring base! and Voila! Done!

Thanks so much! I love crocheting, and it’s really very easy once you get the hang of it! It’s totally worth learning, I taught myself out of books when we were living in Japan!

Anne@Baby boots
Lovely, I bet your girls love them. I agree with Michelle in that they “feel” a little vintage to me!
Ashlee
My girls DO love them!!!! They are really into jewelry, although they NEVER leave anything on so they also tend to lose it all!
Julie
I love the rose ring! I think my daughter would LOVE it. Now, YOU’VE been pinned. 🙂
Ashlee
Thanks so much! I have about 10 of these rings in different colors! They also make for great conversation as well!

I love these! Thanks for the inspiration!
Ashlee
your so welcome! I love creating patterns, but I love finding good ones too!
Katie
Love your rings!! I was trying to make the first one but I’ve never worked from a chart before. Could you let me know what the symbols mean? Or a written pattern if you have one. Thanks!!
Ashlee
the 2 rings with the chart patterns aren’t mine, I link to the charts cause that’s what I used to make them. So I can’t share a written pattern. Try this http://www.craftyarncouncil.com/chart_crochet.html
Diane Langley
Could you please tell me what kind of yarn you used for the rose ring? Thank you. I love itl.
Ashlee
it’s crochet thread, not yarn.
Melinda Mills
I am want to know how I can have some rings crochet…they are so sassy and gorgeous….I do not know how to crochet and I love the rings……or a web site that have them for sale…thank, you Linda
Ashlee
Try Etsy, there are tons of people who sell crochet goods there. If you can’t find the ring your looking for you an approach one of the sellers there and request they make one!

Hi Ashley
I love your rings and other patterns so much.
I am working on the rose ring and have a little confusion about the CH-1 space. Is it the space between two V-stitches or the space of CH in DC-CH-DC ?
Tks in advance
Ashlee
it’s the space between the V, good luck!
Irene
Did you glue the ring ontothe base?
Ashlee
yes
