Paper
Serviette Holder with Cherries for Christmas
I saw a picture of this crochet paper napkin holder on some Spanish site and made it just by looking at it. It looked very pretty and thought it would make a nice gift at Christmas time too with the cherries and a green border in Christmas colours. They were quite a hit and I bet you can make these crochet paper serviette holders to give away to your friends and family as well. I have written out my own instructions and am sharing them with you. They are basically granny squares so if you are adept at crochet you wont even need them but its always easier when you get the crochet pattern all ready for you.
Dc into the lower motif
as shown in the picture below.
