Add a unique personal touch to your festive cheer with this delightful ornament. Quick and easy to make, and needing very little yarn, it will be fun to make and a delight to hang year after year.

Made with Les Belles Bouclettes Arctic Wolf, a mohair/wool blend boucle yarn, they are unusually soft to the touch, with a deliciously rich texture. This texture makes the addition of beads especially attractive. Pick beads that subtly enhance the yarn’s color, or ones that boldly glitter against the rich boucle background. The ornament has the spiral design that creates the “Furry” Pinecone.
