I use left over yarn for crocheted kitchen towels. I do different ones for the seasons,holidays, themes, even children's heros. You can buy holiday towels for the holidays or season at WalMart or even the dollar stores.
1.By folding them from top to bottom you get two towels from each.
2. Use a fine crochet needle No 1 or 2 and pierce through the rough top and single crochet a cross from the back of the towel.
3.Come back with a double crochet. On the single crochet on return row.
4.On the next decrease one on each end of the row.
5.Continue until you get to six stitches and continue with right side double and return single until you have 4-6 inches in length.
5.On back side chain 10-12 and double crocheted the chain and put a scallop edge.
6.You can get large buttons at Jo-Ans or WalMart or get holiday ribbon or a color appropriate to the season. I have also use the large round bells or ribbon pointsettas for Christmas. If it is difficult to find your holiday ie Valentines or childrens themes .Buy a yard of fabric and get the 6 pack of towels at WalMart and sew a band 3 1/2 to 4 inches at the bottom of the towel. These are great gifts to your friends, hostess gifts, teachers gifts or Secret Sister gifts. Enjoy
These can be put on a towel bar
Put on kitchen draw pulls
My friends love them for their campers
Teachers love them they rarely get something hand made.
I keep one on the shower curtain rod with a chain made from the shower curtain rings ( I am only 5 ft tall) so I can use it to get the water out of my eyes while taking a shower.
