This beautiful music notes crochet garland will be perfect for those who love music. The idea of this garland was inspired by one of my customers. She wanted me to create such garland for her kid’s room.

I love to make garlands as to make them I can use my crochet appliques. If you enjoy making crocheted garlands as well, make sure to check out my holiday decorations – Spooky Spider Garland for Halloween, an Egg Emoji Garland for Easter, and a Happy Shamrock Garland for St. Patrick’s Day.

How to Make Music Notes Crochet Garland
Instructions:
1. Crochet music notes.
2. Block and starch the notes as they had a tendency to slightly twist. Note it is normal for crocheted items to twist or curl, but we want our notes to be flat. For starching I used undiluted Sta – Flo concentrated liquid starch.
Soak the notes with Sta-Flo starch or you can use other fabric stiffeners. Gently squeeze out any excess liquid. Place the notes on the pinning board. For a pinning board, you can use a corkboard, a sheet of styrofoam, or a piece of pressed cardboard.
Cover your pinning board with plastic wrap. Using rustproof pins, pin notes to a desired flat shape. Allow to dry completely before removing them.
3. Make a string.
For the string, use two strands of thread size #3 and hook size F/5-3.75mm. I crocheted a chain about 70” long and left from each end about 7-10” for tying the garland. Then arrange the notes and carefully sewed them on.
I hope you enjoyed this music notes crochet garland!
Happy Crocheting!
