Free Bunting Pattern

Hello,

I have created a bunting pattern for a future show in August.  I have been making lots of different colours, its great way to use up oddments of yarn.

Materials Required

Oddments of double knitting yarn

approx. 10 meters of main colour

4.00 hook

Measurement

3 to 4 inches (9 to 10 cms)

Turn at the end of each row

1.  2ch., 1dc. in 2^nd ch. from hook.
2. 1ch., 2dc. in dc.
3. 1ch., 2dc. in 1^st dc., 1dc. in last dc. (3dc)
4. 1ch., 2dc. in 1^st dc.,  1dc. in each dc. to end. (4dc)
5. 1ch., 2dc. in 1^st dc.,  1dc. in each dc. to end. (5dc)

Rep. row 5 until you have 16dc., fasten off.

Border

Fasten the border colour to the top right hand corner of your flag, work 1ch., 2dc. in same place, 1dc. in 14dc., 3dc. in last st., 1dc. in each row end, 3dc. in bottom point, 1dc. in each row end to top of flag 1dc. in same place as 1^st 2dc., ss. to join in 1^st dc. Fasten off.

Fringe

Cut 6 x 6inch lengths of yarn fold in half and with wrong side of your flag facing put hook through the bottom point stitch, pull the folded end through, pick up the loose ends with the hook and pull through the loop. trim ends to tidy.

Joining

I have worked a length of chain and spaced the flags along it as I worked the chain by catching the top corners with a dc. or treble.

beg.	beginning
ch.	chain
dc.	double crochet
rep.	repeat
sp.	space
ss.	slip stitch
st.	stitches

I hope that you enjoy this design, I would love to see any bunting that you make from it to put on my Pinterest account.

Many Thanks,

Alison xxx
