I was looking around Pinterest for teacher's gifts one day, and came across the idea to crochet a paper chain. Say what? I know, amazing idea! So, I took it one step further, and instead of an end of the year gift, I decided to make a 100s day chain for my son's Kindergarten teacher. I wanted it to be something she could use for several units. So, I made sure that each color had at least 10. They use 10-frames in math for counting. I also wanted the colors of the rainbow, so that she could use this for working on colors.
10-red
10-orange
10-yellow
10-green
10-blue
10-purple
That's only 6, so I added
10-black
10-white
which gave me 20 left over to get to 100. Those are the multicolor.
I used sticky back velcro to attach them. For sturdiness, I used mostly Red Heart yarn and cotton yarn. As in any paper chain, the vary a bit in length and width.
