Button Bunting...
Seems I had an overwhelming response to write this one up and share with you, so that is exactly what I'm doing! So many of you had such lovely ideas with what to do with it, too!
~hang it on your trailer or camper
~hang it over your booth at the craft fair
~display it on the wall over a little one's crib
~use it to brighten up your room, nook, workspace or little corner
~drape it over a picture, mirror or from your mantle
~gift it for a shower or birthday party
~make it in patriotic or special colors to match your decor
The triangles are rated as Easy and work up quickly using little bits from your stash. These are all made in Red Heart Soft, a worsted medium (4) yarn, which I detail in the pattern, but you can make them with a different weight yarn or hook size, too. In fact, the bits came from leftovers from this Design Wars creation--the Mariposa Throw.
Be creative and have fun!
The buttons are optional, but in my button-obsessed brain, that's simply CRAZY to consider leaving buttons off of a BUTTON Bunting!! Besides, I have a stash of buttons almost as embarrassing as my yarn! ;)
Because it gets requested so often, as well, rather than have the pattern detailed here on the blog, I have written it up in a downloadable PDF that you can get in my Etsy shop here for a small fee (thank you so much for your support!), or from my LoveCrafts shop here for free. By the way, this one has not been tested so if you have any issues, please PM me on Facebook.
Have fun and feel free to share pictures of your buntings on my Facebook page, or better yet in my Facebook group here, where we talk all things yarny and colorful! And if you are an Instagram user, you can follow me there (@FeltedButton).
I'm off to play with this loveliness!
