What you need to know

Perfect for beginners, Amanda Walker's knitting pattern will guide you step-by-step to create quick and easy tassel bunting

Bunting has traditionally been used to decorate a room or garden during a festive occasion or party and although it's usually made up of material triangles, we just love Amanda Walker's knitted version. Why not jazz up your tent on your next camping trip? This simple pattern uses knitted decreases to shape a neat knitted triangle bunting flag. The contrasting edging is worked using a knitted picot edge. It is knitted in a 4ply yarn and decorated with easy-to-make tassels.

Top knit tip

The best way to sew in the ends on a piece of knitting that doesn't have seams is to weave the end of yarn in and out of a few stitches along the edge of the knitting. When you reach the last stitch, skip this one and weave the end back through the stitches. Trim the end of the yarn tail as close to the knitting as possible.
