I guess you can say I am on a wreath kick since the heart shaped rose wreath that I shared last week. I have been loving all the burlap wreaths I have been seeing in blogland and have been longing to make one for awhile. I used a wire wreath frame for this and used a combination of the techniques from Sarah’s tutorial on Becoming Martha and Laura’s tutorial on Top This Top That.
I thought felted flowers would be the perfect embellishment for this. The texture goes so perfectly with the burlap and I also don’t have to worry about them getting ruined by the moisture outside. I worked the flowers up with Cascade 220 wool yarn. The large rose is from this pattern that a shared a couple weeks ago. But the buds and leaf patterns are below.
Rosebud and Leaf Pattern
Here’s what you need:
- worsted weight yarn (wool yarn such as Cascade 220 if you want to felt them)
- US H-8 / 5 mm crochet hook
- yarn needle and scissors for finishing
This free pattern is written in U.S. crochet terms and abbreviations. Stitch counts are provided at the end of each round to help you keep on track.

7/4/24 HowDeeee Happy 4th of July! I’ve been looking for a good rose and rosebud pattern and I came across this as I was looking for ideas and a great bud pattern to be using as I’m going to be designing and crocheting my youngest sisters wedding bouquet and veil for her wedding in mid August this year. I am planning to use both patterns to create with. Looking forward to working through my project (& future one’s). Thanks and God Bless you!!

Anyone tried this pattern? Left me hanging…..pleases explain….did I make a wrong turn some where?
Which part are you having trouble with, Treasa? I’d be happy to help 🙂
What are the instructions for after fasten off? I have a flat piece.
Hi Sidney 🙂 Here are the instructions after Row 3: Fasten off leaving a tail of about 6 inches. Now, roll the strip so that it resembles a bud and use a tapestry needle to weave your 6-in. tail through the bottom of your flower, making sure to go through all layers of the flower.
Thank you
I can’t get to the pattern for the rose. It said to click ‘here’ but it didn’t work. I want to do the whole pattern with the buds and rose. It is just beautiful. I love the BL wreath. Thought this would be cute on hats too.

Gorgeous wreath!!!
Beautiful contrast between the fine flowers and rough fabric, lovely idea! Honestly, I would never get that fabric so perfectly equal folded ;-). Thanks for sharing!
I really like this idea! Thank you! I saw you on Hookin on Hump Day. Rhonda
This is really gorgeous – I haven’t gotten into the burlap trend til now, I think this wreath might have changed my mind! Love the little roses too! Thanks for linking up on Hookin on Hump Day!
This is so gorgeous! I just cannot envision a burlap wreath coming out that pretty if I attempt it, though… I HATE working with that stuff! Haha. But seriously, I LOVE this!
Kara,
You always make such beautiful things and are so generous with your ideas! Thanks so much! I have been wanting a classy yet inexpensive wreath for my door for ages now. This is perfect–especially since it will do well in the weather!
Love your burlap wreath! Very pretty!
