The photograph shows a bell, which is knitted as follows:
- Begin work with a chain of 4 air loops (VP).
- 1 VP of lifting, 12 half-columns (PS). Semi-columns are performed in the same way as columns with a crochet, but the loop and cap are tied together, not sequentially.
- 1 VP lift, 1 PS, 1 PS, 2 PS in one loop of the base (that is, double each third PS).
- 4 VP lift, 1 VP, column with three covers. Repeat the sequence (except the lifting loops).

- 1 VP of recovery, 4 sc, 20 VP, 1 sc in 5 th VP, 5VP, 4 sc. Repeat 7 times.
- 1 VP lift, 2 sc, 6 sc in a smaller arch, 8 scin a large arch, 2 VP, 8 RLS in a large arch, 6 RLS in a smaller arch.

As a material, the same thread, which was connected with a bell, is suitable, as well as a tape made of satin or organza. In the photo, a plastic circle was tied to a bell with a crocheted tie. It is very convenient and beautiful. You can tie a ribbon from a ribbon to the ringlet or simply put it on a branch.

Putting the bell on the form, it is generously dampedstarch solution, PVA glue or gelatin. After complete drying, a durable and volumetric New Year's bell is produced. A pattern of patterns with large holes may cause the web to be very soft. In this case, it is possible to impregnate the product with a solution several times.
