Hey Sir Mikey, you can also use a pipe cleaner to put all the way through the center to keep the candy cane shape. This makes for a very cute decoration to put on gifts! Thanks for all your awesome ideas!!!
+ The Crochet Crowd Mikey, This brings back so many memories as I made these 40+ years ago. My Mom loved them so much, she placed them on presents in place of bows & on also on the tree. (She taught me to crochet my 1st project in Kindergarten) ●Tip: for added stability ~ use a pipe cleaner. We also crocheted "Candles" with a wick etc. Thanks for making me Smile today! 😊
my daughter makes these and what she uses is a pipe cleaner down the middle a red one or a white one that way you can mold it in the safe you want and you don't have to worry about security hanging Loop cuz you can just take and put it over your branch without having to worry about anything she was a great job to Mikie
Lena K I wish I had thought of pipe cleaners! No matter how I did this I couldn't get it to bend correctly so I ended up using a small jewelry wire. I made a note to use pipe cleaners next time!
Your beginner tutorials are very easy to follow and quite encouraging!! These candy canes are awesome for building my crochet confidence so thank you!!
We used these in our hair as kids. Just make the curly as long as you want (don't cut the yarn), then make a long chain for tying (don't cut the yarn), then continue on and make the same length curly at the other end. The length of the curlies and the chain vary depending on the size of the person to be wearing them.Tie onto pony tails and enjoy. We never rolled two together like that though. Cool idea.
how many curls should I end up with? I did 3 and got one with 11, 9, and 10, and some of the bumps are hard to get into, like they are deep, if that makes sense
For those of you who crochet loosely, I suggest that you use an F or G hook. The “tighter” the stitches, the more likely it will keep its shape. A pipe cleaner is definitely a good idea 👍🏼
Mr. Mikey ur awesome wiff 😊 instructing me soooooooooooooooooooooo, im asking"" U" 2 come up with candycane legwarmers, I thought of this 4 a lil girl keeping life fun 4 her , I'm a stickler 4 age appropriateness & I think this would be a great time to have a little fun during the holidays thank U Sirrr
I am sorry Mike but I hate the way you talk about Christmas. I have watched many of your videos which I enjoy. Please be a little more sensitive to those of us that believe Christmas is special. Thank you.

Perfect ornaments don't need to be complicated. I love simple and quick patterns with few materials needed. Thank you.
You are so welcome and I agree.

Beautiful
Cant get my ends to looks nice, will try to stich together and add the pipecleaner to form shape better
I use ‘IT’ hair spray (it use to be called’freeze it’) it keeps it formed the best I have found.
How nice! I wonder.. if I crochet one in wool and felted it, would it be as nice as this?
I'd have to make a 80 sl st long chain though... lol
Wonderful. Thank you.
This is awesome! Love your work!
really cute & easy.
Lovely! Thanks for sharing! :)
New crocheter here, can I just spray starch it in the shape of a candy cane if I don't want to do the string?
Easy part crochet. Hard part was intertwining pieces.
how many curls should I end up with? I did 3 and got one with 11, 9, and 10, and some of the bumps are hard to get into, like they are deep, if that makes sense
wonderful!:) tyvm
When weaving them together can you weave it around a candy cane as well
how would you do this using chrochet thread
For those of you who crochet loosely, I suggest that you use an F or G hook. The “tighter” the stitches, the more likely it will keep its shape. A pipe cleaner is definitely a good idea 👍🏼
Great tip! Thank you for sharing that with us.
could i use a pipe cleaner to help keep the appearance of the candy cane ?

I didn't think that is was that easy.

In what way? I don't understand. I don't share my personal beliefs about Christmas on my tutorials.
