Rakhi:

Hello friends, Raksh-bandhan is one of the Indian festivals about which I have already written in my post on 20 July 2020. Here I made one more simple but cute rakhi. I use 4 ply yarn and 1.75 mm hook. Pattern: Start with yellow yarn. R1: In a magic loop make dc 24, cl.

Note that first dc means ch3. R2: sl st in 12 sts, ch1, bead1,

ch1 then again sl st in remaining 12 sts, BO.

Make such 5 petals.

Now fold each petal and sew them to each other as shown. Also sew bead at the centre.

For leaf with green yarn make same as R1 above. R2:sl st in 12 sts, ch3,

sl st in remaining 12 sts. Sew all these 2 leaves on two sides of flower. Then make cord of chains for 6 inches and lastly attach one bead at the end. The beautiful Rakhi is ready as in figure 1. Tie it with love to your brother. The following video with English subtitles may help you. ETC: Enjoy the Creativity.
