CHRISTMAS BAUBLES TOY KNITTING PATTERNS
Have a happy handmade Christmas with this set of baubles to hang on your Christmas tree. The knitting pattern includes five designs: Santa, Snowman, Robin, Rudolph and Pudding.
TECHNIQUES: All pieces are knitted flat (back and forth) on a pair of straight knitting needles, apart from Rudolph’s antlers which are i-cord knitted on two DPNs. You could convert the patterns for the hats and baubles to knitting in the round if you prefer. You will need to cast on and off, knit, purl, work increases and decreases, change colour at the end of a row (knit stripes), knit i-cord and sew seams. The pattern for the pudding incorporates Fair Isle colour-work.
FINISHED SIZE: Each bauble is approximately 5.5cm diameter
Materials you need at home:
- A pair of straight 3.75mm knitting needles (US 5)
- Two 3.5mm DPNs (US 4)
- Double knitting yarns (DK or light worsted weight); less than 30g in each colour
- Toy filling
