Stop and Smell the Roses: 25 Easy Knitting Projects

Behold one of the world’s most beloved flowers: the rose. There’s something special about these thorny stemmed beauties. Songs have been written about them, poems have been recited about them, even Walt Disney has incorporated their everlasting beauty into multiple plotlines, such as Beauty and the Beast.

What is it about a rose that makes it so special? Why do lovers exchange a dozen roses and not a dozen daisies on Valentine’s Day?  Is it its bewitching aroma? Or that it comes in so many varieties and colors? Roses symbolize beauty and elegance, so why not stitch some into your easy knitting projects?

We’ve strolled through the AllFreeKnitting garden and picked a few of our favorite blooming knits that feature this gorgeous petaled plant. Watch as your knitting comes to life and bursts with floral freshness with a few of these beautiful rose themed easy knitting patterns. There’s something for everyone in this generous bouquet: scarves, mittens, and knit shawl patterns, baby knits, home décor items, and more.
