Ok so my Sit 'n' Stitch group have decided we are going to have a Coffee Morning for Charity. We are going to hopefully have a few stalls selling our Knitting and Crochet makes. I thought Bunting would be a good thing to sell as we can Knit or Crochet them and hopefully all join in and get simular sizes.
So before I can get side tracked with anything else I have started to make a pattern for them.
Please note, I have never made a pattern up before and I am just writing it here to save my ideas. I cannot be held responsible for your bunting being wonky if you choose to use my pattern lol.
Anyway had a little go this morning and came up with this.
Roughly 4 1/2 "x 4 1/2" Bunting.
Using a 3mm Crochet Hook and any DK Yarn chain 26 stitches.
Row 1; Miss first chain and DC into each stitch to end (25 stitches) Chain 1 and turn
Row 2; as Row 1
Row 3; as Row 1
Row 4; DC 2 together, DC in next 21 stitches, DC 2 together, Chain 1 and turn

Row 25; DC to end (3 Stitches) Chain 1 and turn
Row 26; DC 3 Stitches together, Cut Yarn and pull through last stitch, Sew in end.
So there it is, like I've said I have not done this before, I did Crochet along with this pattern and got this;
But it hasn't been double checked yet.
Also if anyone would like to Crochet bunting for our Charity sale that would be AMAZING!!!
You can just message me here or on wam734@hotmail.com and I can send you details of where to send your finshed pieces.
Hope this inspires you to Crochet along and if anyone does find a mistake before me I would love to hear from you.
Also can anyone tell me how I can keep this message at the top of my page please. I've had a look and cant see anywhere to do this.
Thanks in advance
