Before starting, you will need to gather the necessary materials. You will need:
Crochet hook (size H-8/5mm recommended)
Yarn (size 4 worsted weight recommended)
LED string lights
Scissors
Tapestry needle
Step 2: Crochet the Base
To start, chain stitch a length that will fit around your chosen LED string lights. Slip stitch into the first chain to form a loop. Then, single crochet around the loop until it is the desired size to fit around the lights. Slip stitch into the first single crochet to join the round.
Step 3: Create the Pattern
The Light Fantastic pattern consists of a combination of single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, and treble crochet stitches. Begin by chaining three and then double crochet in the next stitch. Chain one and skip the next stitch. Double crochet in the next stitch and chain one. Repeat this pattern around the circle.
Next, switch to half double crochet for the second round. In the chain one space from the previous round, work a half double crochet, chain one, and then work another half double crochet in the same space. Repeat this pattern around the circle.
For the third round, switch to double crochet. In the chain one space from the previous round, work two double crochets, chain two, and then work two more double crochets in the same space. Repeat this pattern around the circle.
For the fourth and final round, switch to treble crochet. In the chain two space from the previous round, work three treble crochets, chain three, and then work three more treble crochets in the same space. Repeat this pattern around the circle.
Step 4: Add the Lights
Once you have completed the pattern, it is time to add the LED string lights. Place the lights on the base and secure them by stitching the final round of the pattern to the base around the lights. Be sure to leave the battery pack accessible so you can turn the lights on and off as needed.
Step 5: Finish Off
To finish off, weave in any remaining yarn ends and trim off the excess. Your Light Fantastic is now complete and ready to use!
