SC TRIANGLE PATTERN

6mm hook and two strands of DK or one of Chunky
For a firmer triangle use a 5mm hook


Simple pattern of 13 chain turned using the 1st 2 sts as 1st sc giving me 12 stitches at the end of the 1st row (counting the loop on the hook to start with actually make 14 chain sts)
Missed the 1st st out at the beginning of every row until l had an equilateral triangle…started and finished with long ends for stitching together 
Worked in 2 strands of DK and SC


Measures about 5" wide x 4" high 
 8mm hook and 2 strands of DK or single strand chunky


FLOWER: 
6mm hook and 2 strands of DK or one of Chunky


12 dc in a magic circle...1st colour
2nd row: 2 sc in each stich...2nd colour
3rd row: 2 chain and one dc in first st, dc in next 2 sts, one dc and 2 chain sl st into same stitch
sl st to next st and repeat....3rd colour

    Suz, more crochet wonderfulness from you! I think your triangles and flowers would make a very excellent bunting to hang in your lovely studio! You must show Phil my new post.. :-)

    I am really frustrated to post here since it won't allow me to post anything but anonymous.

    Just wanted to say I love the triangles and flowers together. Also, I appreciate that you post such lovely pictures and also patterns to make different projects. I really want to make the flower rug and will as soon as I buy the yarn. Such a busy woman, you make me feel Lazy. ; ) Susan, from Michigan

    Beautiful flowers and triangles, have been looking at lots of triangle patterns as ould love to make some bunting and yours in a different take to the ones have been looking at so i think doing a variation on the two styles will hopefully make it look lovely, many thanks for the ideas and sharing the instructions and good luck with the posts, i had some probs last week and check on the help bit and it was actually helpful! maybe see if there is anything there that may help? hope you have a good weekend, best wishes, Tabs x
