Little Rainbow Cloud Hanging Pattern Stage 1 Cut your mesh into a rectangle to the size you would like (mine was 12 x 8 cm), and grab your super chunky wool in white and hook the wool through the holes using your crochet hook. Make sure you leave 2 rows at the bottom of the cloud for your tassels. Stage 2 Once you are happy with the shape of your cloud, grab you coloured yarn (rainbow stripes) and cut to your desired length, (I cut my tassels to 60cm in length so 30cm once folded). Fold in half and loop through the bottom of your cloud. Stage 3 Draw and cut three stars out of your glitter card/fabric and glue to your cloud. Stage 4 Straighten your tassels (optional!) and trim so they are super straight at the bottom. Stage 5 Tie a little loop at the back of your cloud to hang! And, you’re all done!
