This bunting pattern was inspired by the Retro Ornament Throw I designed for Red Heart. Decorate your couch with the throw, and your walls or chimney with the bunting! The ornaments utilize 3 colors of Red Heart Sparkle Soft and then the edging and bunting is all white to bring it all together. The Sparkle Soft adds some additional festivity with its glittery sparkle.

Awesome ornament, Jessie! Love it
Just gave me an idea: I’ll crochet 5 or so with mercerized thread and
make a colourful mobile pendant!
Thanks a lot for sharing!
Ooo!! Good idea!
