Simple Sunflower Bunting
General Notes
This pattern is for a customizable sunflower bunting. Yarn amounts are given per flower, and I provide instructions for calculating how many flowers you will need to achieve your desired length. I also give two options for connecting your flowers: stringing them on a long chain or attaching them point-to-point.
Here are some fun ways to use this bunting:
- Hang a short bunting across a kitchen window! It would be lovely to admire sunflowers while you do the dishes.
- Attach one to a bed frame. This pattern would cheer up any kid’s room (try different colors if you’d like!), or it could make a guest bedroom extra welcoming.
- Hang one on your garage or fence for an outdoor party!
- Space the sunflowers widely and hang them around the lintel of your front or back door, letting them drape on either side.
- Hang it over a crib for a sunflower-themed nursery!
