Pretty Daisy Bunting Free Crochet Pattern & Video Tutorial
Hello friends, it's been a while again since I last posted but here we are at last and with a new crochet pattern to share with you. My Ditsy Daisy granny square has been so popular I thought why not use it to decorate your home. So my granny square became a triangle and the triangle became this pretty daisy buntiing and who doesn't love a bit of bunting?
The perfect way to add a touch of colour and cheeriness to your home, or a childs room and I have made an acompanying video tutorial to work alongside the written pattern.

Other notes: I used Stylecraft Special Aran in colours Baby Mint, Baby Pink, Fondant, Cream, Saffron, and Aspen to make my bunting. Depending on what type of yarn you have used you may be able to dry block your pennants by simply placing on a blocking board and leaving overnight. Alternatively, they may be wet or steam blocked. You can make as many pennants as you wish to adjust the size of your bunting. I made 9 and my finished bunting measured approx 128 inches (325cm)

ReplyDeleteThank you Sandra, lovely to hear from you I hope you are well?
DeleteThank you. I am fine, but I seem to have been spacing my blog entries out as well - not for a lack of new photos, but the lack of visitors is sometimes disheartening!!
DeleteGlad to hear you are doing well Sandra, sorry to hear you have been feeling disheartened, your blog photos are always so beautiful...
DeleteVery beautiful. Sorry to hear the lack of visitors. Are you talking about on line or in person?
