Pine Cone
Size: approximately 3 inches
Materials:
- I used Red Heart Super Saver Buff Fleck (be sure not to use a yarn that is too soft or too thin for this pattern)
- Size G Hook
Additional Information
Gauge: Not important
Abbreviations: sc = single crochet, ch = chain, st = stitch, sl st = slip stitch, dc = double crochet
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Ch 15
- *dc in 3rd ch from hook, ch 3, sl st in first chain of the ch 3 you just did* Repeat this step 3 more times in the same “3rd ch from hook” stitch.
- Repeat step 2 in each of the remaining chains of the original ch 15.
- At the end of the last dc in the last ch don’t do the ch 3 or sl st. Just finish off after the last dc. Leave the yarn tail long enough so that you can weave it to the top center of the pine cone. Tie it to the beginning yarn tail. That creates the hanger!
