 FRIDAY FUN DAY!

Patriotic American Flag Yard Sign

Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach Of Posh Pooch Designs

With some Of the American Patriotic Holidays Being

 Celebrated, Memorial Day, Flag Day And The 4th of July, 

we decided It was time to retest and update our Patriotic

 American Flag Yard Sign Crochet Pattern.

This Pattern Was Written 7 years ago, so Yes it was time.

We added lots of new pictures and 

 Filmed a brand new video

The Sign fits a standard yard sign hanger,

 as it measures 17 X 15 inches.

You can also use a small curtain rod, wooden or bamboo rod

 or even a nice sturdy stick for a rustic appearance.

So whatever your outdoor decorations are, it will fit right in.

It's a great Patriotic Decoration that you can stitch up really quick, because it is crocheted using Super Chunky

 (6) weight  yarn! 

The Flag is Trimmed off with a easy shell stitch border.

The Cute Star is embroidered on.

Garden Sign You Design Crochet Pattern
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

I Found This Cute Garden Sign At my Local Hobby Lobby

 When I was searching for the clearance sale.

When I saw it I decided I wanted to make a s

fun garden or yard sign for Spring.

 It would also look nice on an interior door or

 wall in any room in your home. 

The hanger is 7.9 X 5 inches

but The Sign we make to hang on it is 6.5 X 8 inches

Other Options For A Sign Hanger.

1. A small wooden dowel

2. A wire hanger

3. A thin stick from the yard

There Are 5 Steps In Making the Sign.

You can personalize the sign by getting into your yarn

 stash and button stash, and have some fun. 

Choose the colors you like, the buttons you like and even appliques your like. Make it to fit your style.
