Make or Buy: Crocheted Garland

We've been seeing banners made of all sorts of materials hanging in homes and kids' rooms so why not crochet? Whether your hands are itching to crochet yourself or you'd prefer to let someone else to the handiwork for you, we've got the links...

I want to do it myself!

Hop on over to Prudent Baby (we weren't kidding when we told you they've got some cool ideas over there) for Jacinda's full how-to to make a darling crochet pennant garland which she swears is a beginner's project (and she recommends doing in bed - nice!).

You loved this Granny Square crocheted blanket last fall so you can follow the link to learn how to make individual squares and then string them together to make a garland.

I Want To Buy One!

Ingrid of Wood Wool Stool will hook you up - $35 gets you a ten square garland to hang wherever you please (while you're there you must check out her crochet covered stools).
