Instructions:

Ch 14

Row 1: In the 5th ch from the hook, work a dc. *skip two ch then in the next ch (dc, ch 1, dc).  Repeat from * across to end of row.

Row 2: Ch 4 and turn.  In the first “V” (ch 1 space from previous row), work a dc.  Work a (dc, ch 1, dc) in each “V” (ch 1 space from previous row) across.

Repeat row 2 until belt is desired length.  Weave in all ends.

Making the Belt Ties:

  • Cut 6 pieces of yarn each measuring 90 inches long.
  • Fold each one in half, then in half again.
  • Each belt end will have 3 strands ties to it.
  • Holding one of the strands that you folded, locate the end with the two loops (the other end will have 1 loop and 2 cut ends)
  • Insert the end with the two loops into one of the edges and draw the other end through.
  • Pull gently to tighten and repeat for other two strands on end of belt.
  • Repeat on the other side of belt.
  • With a tapestry needle, string wood beads to ends of yarn tie strands.  Tie a knot at the ends so beads won’t slip off and you’re finished!
