Materials:

Scrap yarn, 4-med weight

I used White (A) and Burgundy (B)

Size I/5.50mm hook

Notes on pattern:

Row 1: SC second “butt” from hook, continue SC to end back loop only. Ch 1 and turn

Row 2-24: SC across, Ch 1, turn

Continue this to row 24, and it measures out approximately 6 1/2” wide, and approximately 15”wide. Join with color ‘B’, turn

Edging:

Ch 1, SC to corner, (SC, CH1, SC for each corner), and SC on all sides. Fasten off.

 

Ties:

Wrong side facing, and using “A” section, count 7 stitches in from corner. Fasten “B” to stitch, ch 35, string a decorative bead or a button, and slip stitch and fasten to end.

Attach “B” yarn to next stitch, ch 5, slip stitch in base forming a loop.

Slip stitch 8 stitches, ch 5, slip stitch to base, forming a loop, slip stitch to next ch, ch 35, and attach bead at end, fasten off, weave in ends.

         

Now you can put your hooks in as shown, cover with flap, and roll it up and tie. J

*For knitters, since it’s 15 inches in length, all you have to do is turn and make your ties on the long side of project, and insert length-wise and flap covers needles and roll it up! WOW!
