windspinners and vines

Been trying out some windspinners as practice for my window decoration (more.on that later) and found the original patterns, ending and readding at the start are far too time consuming for sewing in ends, so I've made up a pattern to use with colour changing yarn that works really well, and has waaaay less sewing in of ends, always a bonus!

Any yarn, with an appropriate hook for the yarn stated on the band.

I used a 4ply mandala with a 3mm hook for the images

(US terms used)

Foundation single crochet as long as you want you spinner to be.

Ch3, DC in first stitch and then 2dc in each stitch along.

At end ch3, 2dc in first stitch then 3dc in each stitch to end.

Ch1, sc in next stitch and along to end.

Organise spinner so it curls properly.

Add a tassel to the bottom if wanted, or a pompom if you fancy it, anything weighty will work, even a few pony beads threaded onto a chain, so the spinner hangs well.
