Candles

Christmas, Birthday, Advent season, Baptism... there are countless occasions for which you absolutely need Candles.

Just crochet one. Or two, or three, or a huge stockpile. Despite the flame storable in drawers without danger and always ready for use!

But don't let it burn too long, otherwise it will just melt down to a stump with wax running in all directions. ;)

With this pattern you can crochet a Candle with whatever height/length you desire. With or without wax drips running down the sides. The visual appearance lies in your hands here. And of course this pattern contains the instructions for the Burned Out Candle. :)

Skill Level:
easy

Size:
The size depends on your gauge, chosen type of yarn and crochet hook size. I'm using Puppets Lyric yarn (8/8, DK/Light-Worsted) from Coats and a 3 mm hook. With that I get the following size/s: from 2 cm to 12 cm (or more if you like)

used Techniques
* magic ring
* chain
* single crochet
* half double crochet
* double crochet
* slip stitch
* increase and (invisible) decrease
* crocheting in front loops (instructions included)
* crocheting in back loops (instructions included)
* crocheting back and forth in rows
* crocheting in continuous rounds (rounds are not joined)
* changing yarn-color (instructions included)

The pattern is very detailed. Almost every single step/stitch is explained in words and pictures. Special characteristics are explained step-by-step (i.e. the running wax drips). You see, nothing can go wrong! :)
