A bunting is a garland. I will connect the squares and try to hang them over our entrance, perhaps similar to this example:

And I followed your lead partially and removed the darker blue square. I will make another red one and a bright yellow one and look if these add a bit of pop together with the pastels.
And the cardigan.. sigh... I guess the neckline is a must. But I am not sure if I will find a way to make the neckline work. Right now my motivation is meagre to work on this cardigan. Perhaps I will try to finish one sleeve and then unravel the neckline.
THank you so much for your help 💕
