Materials Needed:
- 3 different colors of yarn (referred to as color A, B, and C)
- A 3mm crochet hook
- A button
- Stitch markers
- Yarn needle
Pattern:
Start with color A to create a slip knot.
- Chain 30 (ch 30).
- Double crochet (dc) in the 4th chain from the hook. Insert hook, yarn over, pull through 2 loops, yarn over, pull through 2 again, completing 1 double crochet.
- Place a stitch marker in the first double crochet to mark your beginning stitch.
- Double crochet in each stitch across the row. At the end of the row, you should have 25 double crochet stitches.
- In the last stitch, make 3 double crochet in the same stitch (increase).
- Working into the back loops only, skip the first stitch and double crochet in the next stitch and each stitch across for a total of 25 double crochet.
- In the last stitch, make another double crochet increase (2 double crochet in the same stitch).
- Slip stitch to the first double crochet to join.
- Change to color B by tying on the new color and chaining 3 (counts as the first dc).
- Double crochet across each stitch in the row. Change colors by joining color C when two loops remain on the hook, before completing the stitch.
- Continue alternating colors A, B, and C, while double crochet in each stitch across for a few rows, carrying the yarn along the side as you work
- After seven rows or your desired length, finish the edge by changing to color A and making a slip stitch in the first stitch of the previous row.
- Chain 1, then single crochet in each stitch across.
- Fasten off your work and weave in the ends with a yarn needle.
- Create a buttonhole loop by chaining a small number of chains that fit around your button snugly, then join with a slip stitch to the start of the chain. Fasten off and weave in the ends.
- Sew the button on the front of the cardholder, opposite the buttonhole loop.
