I went for a soft neutral theme on my tree this year and felt a delicate fabric garland would fit in quite well, and I was right! It’s also a great project to practice chaining and the single crochet stitch.
If you click one and make a purchase, I may receive a commission at no additional cost.
To make 14 feet of garland, you only need one skein of the wool I recommend. Depending on how tall your tree is, and or if it is tucked in a corner, you may need more or less. The back was pressed against a wall, so I did not bother to string my garland behind.
A skein of “The Wool” from we are Knitters * The color I used was Natural. *Check out our full beginners guide about crochet needle sizes. *The wool you want for this project will have the following size notes
6 – 8 sts = 4” (10 cm) Suggested Needle: 10 – 12.75 mm, US 15 – 17 Turn your work and single crochet all the way to the end. Gently pull your garland to straighten out all the stitches.
This is a great project to do with the kids who are interested in learning how to crochet. It’s actually a large finger knit blanket that I made this spring.
