Seed stitch ukulele strap
This is a shorthand recipe for a 7 stitch wide knit & crochet seedstitch ukulele strap. You do need a strap button on the body to make it work.
The strap can be customized to your needs, by widening and lengthening the band, and should be
pretty easy to adapt to a guitar shoulder strap too.
Materials:
cotton laceweight yarn in 2 colours that go well together, or substitute with DK weight
4 mm knitting needles (or circulars), 3 mm crochet hook, needle to embroider & work in ends
Techniques :
Creating DK yarn out of lace yarn: holding two strands of cotton lace together, make long crochet
chain stitches with length of loops 25 cm resulting in 6 strands held together. Do a couple at a time.
