Curtain Tie-back

Hi friends,

This year will be the third year I move to my new house. The curtain tie backs I bought from the shop was in bad condition and I have to throw it away. Rather than buying, I crocheted this curtain tie from a pattern I saw in Simply Crochet issue 04 2013.



 MATERIAL




4 x 50g yarn ( Almond,brown,green and red )
Hook 3.5mm
Tapestry needle

Abbreviations :
  • ch    : chain
  • Sc    : single crochet
  • sl ss : slip stitch
  • dtr   : double treble 
  • htr   : half treble

PATTERN

The length I measure to fit my curtain is 21 inch. I also added flowers & leaves with bright colors to make it looked more cheerful. what do you think?   

Flowers (make 5)
using yarn red, make a magic loop.
Round 1 ch1, (does not count as stitch) 5sc into ring,join with ss
Round 2 10htr
Round 3 *5ch, 3dtr,  next st  ,3dtr,5ch * repeat this to make 5 petal.


Leaves

 Done... 2 pair new curtain tie-backs...

Happy hooking...
