Christmas is coming - why not make your own hangings this year!
This pattern will enable you to create a 3 dimensional Christmas decoration that is something so unusual and different!
Join 6 individual decorations together as shown to create an amazing 12” (30 cm) snowflake centrepiece or simply hang the individual 6” (15 cm) pieces.
You will need:
90g of 100% cotton DK per snowflake or 15g of 100% cotton DK per decoration. Yarn used in the example had 210m to the 100g.
a 3.50mm hook (or sized to give tight stitches)
a wool needle for neatening ends
200ml PVA glue and 200ml cold water or stiffening agent of choice
a blocking mat covered with polythene wrap/film
some ribbon for hanging - you may choose to use yarn instead
Instructions include information on blocking, stiffening and completing in addition to the pattern. Allow a couple of days to complete this process.
