MATERIALS
To make up to 18 ornaments, you will need…

  • Main Yarn: 2 skeins of Blue Sky’s Metalico, 50% baby alpaca and 50% mulberry silk. Each skein is 147 yards/ 50g; approximately 288 yards required. We used the color Opal.
  • Contrast Yarn: Koigu Premium Merino Needlepoint Yarn, 100% merino wool. Each skein is 11 yards/ 3g; approximately 66 yards required. We used the colors 1155, 2229, 1265, 2100, 1520, and 1041.
  • A size D (3.25 mm) crochet hook

NOTE: 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. We made an even dozen!
