Holiday Light Garland
Materials:
- Yarn (green for the strand, and then 4 additional colors for the lights. I used red, orange, yellow, and teal.)
- F/5 3.75mm crochet hook
- tapestry needle for weaving in ends
Make the light bulbs:
Ch 6. Going back up the chain, sc, dc, trc, dc, sc.
Cut yarn and pull through last loop to fasten off.
Make three of these in each color.
Assemble the strand:
With the green yarn, ch 20. Take your first light bulb and single crochet through the top loops together (one stitch).
Ch 20 and repeat the light bulb attachment. Continue to do this until you’ve run out of light bulbs, and ch 20 to finish.
Weave in loose ends.
This version measures about 4.5 feet, but you can make this as long as you want — just keep adding lights! And think of what you’ll save on the electric bill….
Made these last night. Looks fab. Am going to yarn bomb with it this weekend! Will link to your tutorial on my blog.
Wonderful! Glad they worked out for you!
I’m also working on these for a yarn bomb! I’ll also link you! Thanks for the fabulous pattern
I’ve seen other christmas light patterns, but I like these the best.
They’re delighfully minimalist; while simple to make, it’s immediately obvious what they are. Thank you for sharing it.
Could these be any cuter? I just love them. Thanks for the great idea!
