Supplies:

• 3.5mm Crochet Hook
• DK yarn in green, about half a ball – I used this one by Stylecraft in the shade Green

Gauge:

Gauge is not important for this project but will effect the size of the finished piece and amount of yarn used

Abbreviations:

This pattern is written using UK terms
CH - chain               MR - magic ring       TRBL - treble crochet
DC - double crochet      SS - slip stitch
FO - finish off          ST - stitch

Crochet Pattern:

• CH 40, *SS in 4th CH from hook to make a MR
• CH 3, 2 TRBL into MR, CH 3, SS into MR (one leaf complete)
• CH 5, skip 1 ST and DC 4 back down the chain, SS into MR (stalk complete)
• CH 3, 2 TRBL into MR, CH 3, SS into MR (second leaf complete)
• CH 3, 2 TRBL into MR, CH 3, SS into MR (third leaf complete)

• CH 1. On the back of the shamrock, SS into the base of a TRBL opposite the starting chain
• CH 20

• Repeat from * until your shamrock garland is your desired length. After last shamrock, CH 36 instead of CH 20.
• FO and tie a loop for hanging in the CH 36 on each end.

For this pattern I used DK yarn and made 20 shamrocks. The final garland measures 1.8 metres long.

Add a pinch of whimsy to your home by hooking in some crochet leprechauns, or some shiny gold coin charms to really scream, “Happy St. Patrick’s Day!” Once your shamrock garland is complete, swag your staircase or drape your mantelpiece with this string of delicate, emerald foliage. Feeling extra? Craft a mini version and use it as the world’s most festive gift ribbon. It’ll be like wrapping your present in a hug from a leprechaun. Let us know in the comments, how you’d perk up this pattern with your own lucky charms!
