In Any Color

Row 1: Ch 95. Finish off, leaving a tail of yarn. Weave yarn end in and cut any excess. Place the bats where they look good, spacing each one about 12 stitches apart. Apply a small dot of hot glue on the back of the toy’s feet, then hold the feet to the garland. Be careful to not let the glue burn your fingers.

Done! If you made this garland, I would LOVE to see! You can show me by posting a picture in the comments underneath this post 🙂
