Crochet Wind Spinner / Wind Chime and Handmade Rakhis : 75th Independence Day Special

Hello friends,

This year we had celebrated 75th Independence Day in India. A special campaign runned by Govt. of India "Ghar Ghar Tiranga" to invoke the feelings of patriotism in the heart of people and to promote awareness about the Indian National Flag. Due to this concept first time every Indian got a chance of hoisting our flag (because otherwise we don't have permission to hoist it on any day).

From 13th to 15th Aug all atmosphere was full of patriotism. Every one was attracted to these three colours of our flag, Orange, White and Green. On roads thricolour Ballons, Rakhis, Friendship bands, Garlands etc were seen for sale.

No wonder that if I was also not inspired to use these colours in my creations. So I made these three tricolour Rakhis.  They are very simple to make, just by seeing them anybody can make it. Then I also make Wind spinner, Doily, Plate decor (Mehereap), Toran etc with these three colours.

 

So in this post I will give details of Wind Chime / Wind Spinner.

I used 4 ply yarn and 3.5 mm hook.

With orange yarn I made chs with length 21", I have to make 80 chs.

R1: Join white yarn in first ch, dc4 in each ch, (first dc means ch3)

R2: Join orange in first st, hdc 2 in each st.

R3: Join green yarn at first st, (ch1, sl st in next st) rep till end.

Then make two big tassels and join them, thread 3-4 big pearls in that and sew it at one end.

The make loop of chs 30-40, again thread pearls and sew it to other end.

 The beautiful wind chime is ready. The following video may help you.

ETC: Enjoy the Creativity.
