Christmas decorating

Even though I found the previous project a trial, while I was working on it I had an idea for a Christmas decoration.  The increasing side of the triangle was very quick and easy to complete, and I thought that lots of these triangles in red and green would make a nice Christmas bunting.

I crocheted the triangles in an 8 ply acrylic yarn - the acrylic yarn has more body than wool and the triangles hold their shape better. After I had crocheted  lots of red and green triangles, I threaded red ribbon through the top and hung them up!

You could crochet triangles in pastels for bunting in a baby's room, or crochet tiny triangles in a fine cotton and string them on the Christmas tree. You could even crochet bunting in your footy teams colors!
