Crochet Bunting (Free pattern)

100% Cotton Crochet bunting. A simple photo tutorial for a customisable project. Simple stitches and construction.

If I could have bunting in every room in my home I would. I have to go easy on my partner though and have settled for the two Children’s rooms, the Kitchen, the lounge and the garden 🙂

There is something so homely about this bunting. It's perfect for a nursery or children's play room. I find it has an extra bit of charm in pastel colours but it can also be very bright and festive in bold colours – think Birthdays, special occasions, BBQ’s.

You could leave it all year round or create ones in festive colours to use year after year

Crochet bunting for every room!

I make mine with Creative cotton and Essentials cotton. It's 100% cotton, organic, durable and washable…perfect! I stumbled across this pattern when I was trying to whip up a triangular hat for a Bear I was adding to a blanket and it's been my favourite item to make ever since.

Suitable for beginners, no counting or change in stitches and works up super quick.

I honestly recommend trying Creative cotton and Essentials cotton yarn from Hobbycraft - It is fantastic for Home Décor.
It is very durable and you can feel how strong it is in your designs. Its finish is soft to touch and flawless (no fluffy bits).
I have used this in many projects. It is perfect for Nesting baskets, rugs, outdoor and indoor pillow cases.
Anywhere your item will get a lot of use I recommend using this yarn.
You can get yours here Hobbycraft in a large range of shades.
