KNITTING PATTERN Chocolate Orange/bathbomb cover Christmas Bauble Ornament.

Please note. Pattern Only Supplied.

Original Chunky Knitted Christmas Bauble Ornaments 10cm tall Knitting Pattern. The bauble can be knitted in an evening using 2 needles, with easy to follow pattern and guidelines. (This pattern is also available to knit using 4 double pointed needles in the round which avoids a seam but is a more difficult knit available as a PDF to purchase from my Ravelry account.)

I have used Chunky tinsel Kingcole wool with throughout in 50g balls for main colour with gold or silver Ricorumi Lame gold or silver yarn for the clasp.

Bauble can hang on a tree (empty or with lightweight fillings) or make a lovely gift or table decoration.

These baubles make a great gift or charity knit. Ideal little quick knits for fundraising

They are easily worked over an evening using very little yarn - two baubles at least can be achieved from one ball of wool.

Materials:

1 ball King Cole Tinsel chunky 50g wool (should be enough to make 2 baubles)

1 ball silver or gold Ricorumi Lamé 10g yarn

3mm needles (although size 6mm recommended for this wool, using smaller needles makes the stitches tighter with less gapping.)

1x darning needle for sewing down top and joining ribbon/pipe cleaner

1x needle threader (not essential)

23cms Narrow gold or silver ribbon (preferably with wire in so it stands up on its own) or gold/silver pipecleaner

Please note that this is my own design and pattern, which I have worked hard to create so please respect that all patterns are copy-right under UK law.
