THE MATERIALS
- 1-2 skeins of Blue Sky’s Metalico, 50% baby alapaca and 50% mulberry silk. This color is Opal. (Each ornament uses 15-16 yards of the Main Yarn, so with one skein of Metalico you can make 9 ornaments and with two you can make 18. I made an even dozen!)
- Koigu Premium Merino Needlepoint Yarn, 100% merino wool. These colors are, from the left: 1155, 2229, 1265, 2100, 1520, and 1041. (This is enough Contrast Yarn for at least 18 ornaments.)
- A size D crochet hook.
THE PATTERN
Why not take standard baubles and add a stunning design to them to make them more glamourous. This henna design has certainly upgraded these baubles to give the tree that exotic glamorous feel.
There is something so comforting about chunky knit, from blankets to cushions I love how 5doordesign has taken this to the Christmas crocheted ornaments. After 17 years of gold and red glitz she´s going natural this year, with lots of handmade everything.
