Chain Decoration
This cute
chain garland is a lot of fun to make!
Each chain
requires only a small amount of yarn ~ so small amounts, left over from other
projects, are ideal.
Use bright
colours for a colourful decoration – or sparkly yarn for a bit of extra glitz.
I made my
chain garland using DK yarn and 4mm needles ……. but, as size is not critical at
all, any yarn weight would work.
For the first
chain link ~
Cast on 28sts
Knit 3 rows
Cast off
Join the
short edges together using the cast on or cast off tails.
Darn away
ends.
For each additional
chain link ~
Cast on 28sts
Knit 3 rows
Cast off
Join the
short edges together using the cast on or cast off tails, remembering to link
each chain through the last.
Darn away
ends.
If you
like using double-pointed or circular needles you can work these in the round
and you will have no sewing up at all. You would require a small circumference
circular needle.
Make your
chain garland decoration as long as you wish !
Have fun!
Very cute. Thank you xx
