Fasten off.Weave in ends (only ends you need to weave in is the white points).TOP BAND:Row 1: With yellow, ch 30 . Working on the wrong side of first pennant sc across the top sts. Repeat with remaining pennants.Measure your strip of flags to see if it is long enough to hang where you want it. If not decide how many more flags you need before continuing.When you have all the flags you need, ch 30 and fasten off.Row 2: With orange, join to last yellow st with a sc, sc in each ch and each sc and fasten off.I made a small tassel on the ends of the top band by tying the orange and yellow yarns in a square knot. Then cutting about 8 inch length of orange and yellow yarns. Fold them in half and with the crochet hook pull through from the back side. Put all the ends through the loops (including the tails from the top band) and pull tight and trim evenly.Weave in ends.
