Crochet Flowers Dangly Mobile Garland.

I wanted to make a present for my friend in Brazil (that I visited last year, and that I made the granny stripe blanket for).  It had to be small, because I was asking her mum to take it with her when she visited.

I decided on a dangly, mobile, garland thingy!
 
I followed the free pattern for amigurumi stars by Amy's Odyssey that I found on Ravelry.  Mine look more like flowers, because I did the 3 rounds in 3 different colours.  I've made this pattern using solid colours before and they looked a lot more star like.

I used a 3mm crochet hook and lots of DK yarn from my stash.  There are 2 little gold bells on the end that I attached to a chain of crochet.

Here it is in action.  I think I might make one for myself!

  3. Those are so cute - I really need to pick up my crochet hook. I haven't done anything crocheting for an age, i've been side tracked with all my cross stitching.

    1. Your cross stitching is lovely though, I can see why you'd be distracted by it! :)
