Christmas 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!
