Striped Garland ♥ Crochet Pattern
Today, I have a really simple crochet pattern that is perfect for beginners. I felt like my desk needed something to decorate the area, so I decided to make a striped garland! I left some of the triangles solid to balance the garland, and I’m happy with how it came out. It really brightened up my desk area and puts a smile on my face whenever I look up at it.

There are several color options you can choose from. I made three different as you can see above. To make the half-colored triangle, use one color for rows 1-7 and the second color for rows 8-12.

Row 1: ch 11, sc 10 sts. Total = 10 sts

Row 11: ch 1, 2dec. Total = 2 sts
Row 12: ch 1, dec. Total = 1 sts
Cut off and weave ends
ASSEMBLY
To create the garland, ch 10 sts, slst to 1st ch to form a loop, ch 10 sts, slst to the upper left corner of one of the triangles. To attach the rest of the triangles, ch 5 sts and slst to corners. Lastly, ch 20 sts, slst to 10th st from hook to form right side loop. Weave in loose ends.
This step is optional. But if you would like to keep your triangles from curling, you can either block them with water or cut out some triangle-shaped pieces on the felt and glue them on the back of the pieces. This also helps keep the weaved ends from unraveling.
Will you be making this garland?
