Welcome to Creative Friday!
I have been working on this Valentine garland and now it's finished, it makes me smile... I have knitted so many hearts, all different shapes and sizes, you can find the patterns here and here. For the garland, I cast on 5 stitches and knitted an i-cord for about 25 inches, cast off and left a long tail of yarn. When I cast on I also left a long tail of yarn, these are for attaching the garland for it to hang across a space. I tied all the little hearts on with bows so they can be removed and other treasures added for different holidays.

ReplyDeleteLoving the garland! Such a good idea with the little ties!
ReplyDeleteYour Garland looks great, I will have to show my daughter, she enjoys knitting quite a bit. I am hoping to get some of my Valentine projects done this weekend. Thanks for hosting Creative Fridays :)
ReplyDeleteLinda--I love your garland!! What a great idea to have a 'convertible I-cord' for different holidays!!
ReplyDeleteI just ordered a small and a large Lucet, and I want to try my hand (literally!) :) at making cords with them. I'll see how I do. :) XXO-
As usual you have come up with something oh so cute! You are amazing and creative, Linda, and very prolific!! x x x
ReplyDeleteVery cute garland...must be the year of the garland, because I have seen so many...
ReplyDeleteYour banner is very lovely and makes me smile too :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for all the patterns, it is very generous of you.
Oh, and I love your new header. Have a great weekend.
Your garland brings a smile to my face too. hmmm, I wonder if I should knit one for my office at work. My Valentine's Day decorations are looking lame right now.
ReplyDeleteLove CF! Last night I went to a Craftsy.com Meet Up! Great fun! Lovely ladies talking about all the crafting talents they have! Crocheting, knitting, quilting, needlepoint, etc. Should be fun to meet up once a month! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteSheila

ReplyDeleteLove the heart garland! Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteDear Linda, this house of wax is made by children in my Waldorf kindergarten. I hope you like it.
ReplyDeleteThat heart garland makes me smile too. Happy Friday to you. :)
ReplyDeleteSorry, I goofed on my first link.
ReplyDeleteI love those hearts for valentines day! I only just learned how to knit.
Sam
such a lovely cheerful garland, I love it!
ReplyDeleteHi dear Linda
ReplyDeleteI had to pop in to say that your string of hearts look so happy (and of course loving). We all should have a string of hearts hanging somewhere in our homes! Wishing you a wonderful weekend.
Best wishes
Kelly
Linda that's so pretty! have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love your new banner!
ReplyDelete...I even already have the red i-cord just sitting in my wip basket!
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Debbie
Your heart garland is sweet. What a good idea.
