ASSEMBLY

Joining Cups: Place the two finished cup motifs side-by-side. Using MC (Dark Green), sl st through the corresponding stitches along the inner edges of Round 5 for approximately 2-3 inches, starting from the bottom corner, to create the center front join.
Bottom Edging (MC: Dark Green): Join MC yarn at one outer bottom corner. Work a round of sc evenly along the entire bottom edge of the joined cups. This forms the base. Join with sl st.
Scallop Edge (MC: Dark Green): Ch 3, skip next 2 sc, sl st into the next sc. Repeat across the entire bottom edge. This creates small loops for attaching embellishments.
Neck Strap (MC: Dark Green and CC3: Grey/Silver): Cut 3 strands of MC and 3 strands of CC3, each about 60-70 inches long. Hold them together and braid tightly. Secure ends with knots. Attach one end of this long braided cord to the top outer corner of one cup motif and the other end to the top outer corner of the second cup motif. This forms the neck strap.
Side Ties (Make 2 – MC: Dark Green and CC3: Grey/Silver): Cut 3 strands of MC and 3 strands of CC3, each about 20-25 inches long. Hold them together and braid tightly. Secure ends with knots. Attach one side tie to the side edge of each cup (at the height of Round 4/5) for tying at the back.

EMBELLISHMENTS

Crocheted Candy Canes (Make 6-8): Ch 15 in CC1 (Dark Red) and ch 15 in CC4 (White). Twist the two chains together tightly to create the striped effect.

Jingle Bells: Attach one jingle bell to each ch-3 loop of the scallop edge.
Red Berries: Sew one small red decorative berry onto the base of each neck strap at the top outer corner of the cup motifs.

Weave in all ends securely.
