From the Pattern Booklet
“These pretty decorations are all very quick to knit from oddments of yarn. For an inexpensive little gift, the apple can also be made as a novelty pincushion. The measurements are give in the instructions for each design.

Twisted cords:
Make single or double twisted cords of required length for suspending the tree trims. For an unobtrusive cord, use brown yarn and attach the cord as a loop. For a more decorative effect use colour yarn and tie the ends of the cord in a bow.

Safety Note:
In normal circumstances the electric lights which are used to decorate Christmas trees should not present a fire risk. However, it is safest to place all decorations on the tree in positions where they do not come into direct contact with any of the lights.
