Recycled Holiday Ornaments

Made some ornaments on-the-fly over the past few weeks.

Here they are:

I’ll post some patterns later. Good luck running into green plastic bags! My sister found a huge green one for me at her vet clinic.

The tree is pretty easy, I’ll try to write the pattern.
G hook,
green “plarn”
row 1: ch 3, dc in 1st ch
row n: ch 3, dc in every dc + 1. (usually i increase in the middle somewhere)

when you decide it is long enough, sl to the center, ch 4, tr, ch4 back to the body of the tree, tie off.

at the top, yellow “plarn”
ch2 from first green ch. sc counter clockwise as many sc’s as can fit (usually about 10-15), sl to join. sl behind the round of sc’s to the top of the ornament, leave 2-3 inches of tail to hang ornament.

The trees in the picture are 4-5 inches. I’ve made more that are only 2-3 inches, and they are MUCH COOLER. Hang a tree on your tree!
