1st Rosette Ever Pattern (C&K)

I made an ear-warmer/headband and wanted to add a rosette to it. Lucky for me, my grandmother is an amazing woman and resource for all things crochet. She won winner's choice at the Evergreen State Fair for a crocheted flower & lace bed cover a few years back. She taught me how to crochet when I was young. Now I was to make a variety of flowers.
