Technical Requirements

To ensure your carousel stands straight (approx. 20–25 cm tall), having the right materials is key. While you can use any yarn weight, we suggest the following for this Merry-Go-Round Crochet Pattern:

Recommended Materials:

• Yarn: Sport or DK weight Cotton yarn. Cotton provides the structural integrity needed for the poles and canopy.

• Hook: A 2.0mm to 3.0mm hook is recommended. You want the stitches to be very tight and stiff.

• Structure: Cardboard or plastic canvas is often used to stiffen the base and canopy (instructions included).

• Details: Gold embroidery thread for the “brass” poles and safety eyes for the horses.
