INSTRUCTIONS to make the Pillars 'n' Posts Curtain Ties!

SKILL Level – Easy/Intermediate

About Pattern: A fun way to use up those scrap yarns to spruce up the dining set up with TWO variations.

COMPLETED SIZE: approximately 7” in length and 1.2” in height using the same materials as given instructions.

When folded and fastened, it measures 3.5” laid flat. Size may vary based on yarn thickness or hook size used.

Materials:·

Yarn Used: Light DK/ Sport weight – Cotton/Cotton mix; Here I have used Urshii Crochet Thread Yarn. Total Yardage: 88 - 98 yards for 50g
I have used – approximately 10 yards for the solid variant and 3 yards of a Contrast yarn for the spike variant.
Crochet hook – I HAVE USED: 3mm hook) for the project featured in the picture. You can use crochet hook, a size or two smaller than you’d usually use with the yarn. This gives you tight stitches and rigidity to the project.
Scissors and a needle to finish up.

Gauge: GUAGE: N/A. If you insist 😊 11 rows of 23 dc make 4*4 inches swatch. The Pattern can be adjusted if the gauge doesn’t match. Look out for highlighted instructions.

Stitches used: US crochet terms

ch - chain yo - yarn over sc – single crochet dc – double crochet

ss – slip stitch

HDC Bobble stitch

(Yo, inset hook into the stich and pull up a longer loop) THREE times,

Yo, pull the yarn through all the loops.

Ch1 to close the stitch. (This ch1 doesn’t count as a stitch when we make the sc rows in pattern)

PLEASE NOTE:

ch1 does not count unless specified otherwise.
ch3 in the beginning of the row counts as a dc stitch.

LET’S START!!! -

VARIATION 1 - Solid Variation:

Ch 36 To make a longer curtain tie, chain more in multiples of 4.

Row 2: ch1, sc in each stitch across. (35 sc)

Step 2 - in the last stitch, make a (slip stitch, ch1, slip stitch) to make a turn, and slip stitch down the side, as shown below. In the next corner, make a (slip stitch, ch1, slip stitch) again to make a turn.

Step 3 – working in the unworked loops of the beginning chain, follow Step 1 and make a slip stitch in each stitch and work an sc into the base of the ‘dc stitch’ of Row 3, as shown below.

Once at the next corner, make a (slip stitch, ch1, slip stitch) again to make a turn.

Step 4 - Work a slip stitch into the other edge, till you reach Corner A, where we started.
