Bag decoration/key fob/hanging decoration worked in joined rounds starting with a magic circle/adjustable loop.

Makes a great little gift - they are about 3” across when made with the suggested yarn and hook.

These were originally designed back in 2019 - since then the finished items have have proved very popular as a charity fundraiser item.

Colours are changed each round - designer uses ‘blind slip sts’ to make the joins/colour changes (instructions included). The yarn ends are tied in pairs and left inside the rainbow to add a little padding.

The resulting ‘donut’ shape is then folded in half - the 2 layers are joined along the top edge (that has a hanging loop) using sl sts, the lower opening is closed with some matching sewing thread.

Please link any of the projects you make from this pattern back to this page - I’d love to see them!
