Materials for Crochet Christmas Bunting
The granny triangles are not only easy to make but are also a great way for to use up yarn scraps.
I used Sirdar Stories, a DK weight (light worsted) yarn. You’ll also need a 3.50 mm crochet hook and a yarn needle to weave in those loose ends. You could use other yarn weights, just make sure to use a matching hook size.
Cotton yarns are best for their durability and vibrant color options, but acrylic yarn would also work well.
Choosing Colors for your Crochet Bunting
I have included the full list of colors I used below in the materials section. You could chose 5 or 6 festive holiday shades and it will look amazing for a Christmas garland.
You could also make bunting with theme colors for any occasions – birthdays, weddings, baby showers, the color combinations are endless!
I made 9 triangles that were joined together with single crochet stitches. A short crocheted chain made a hanging loop on each side.

Tassels
- In contrast colors of your choice, use a small notebook approx. 3 – 4” in width.
- Cut a 12” length of yarn, and lay across top of book – this will be used to tie top of tassel.
- Wrap yarn around book approx. 10 times (depends how thick you like your tassel)
- Using the 12” tie, knot top of tassel tightly. Cut tassel at opposite end.
- Cut another length of yarn and wrap around tassel 0.5” from top 3 times and knot ends together.
- Trim if needed and attach to the bottom of each triangle, sewing securely.
- I trimmed my tassels to measure 3”
How to Care for your Crochet Bunting
To keep your precious crochet Christmas bunting looking its best year after year, a little TLC goes a long way. Store your bunting in a cool, dry place, preferably in a cloth bag to prevent moisture and dust buildup.
If it needs freshening up, a gentle hand wash with mild detergent will do the trick. Lay flat to dry and avoid direct sunlight to maintain those vibrant colors.
