Nine Christmas Balls
These 9 Christmas Balls are additional to the Advent Calendar 2020. 24 Christmas Balls we released in 2020.
ROWAN Alpaca Soft DK
Or Any other DK yarn in either 100% Wool or Wool/Alpaca Blend such as Schachnemayr Merino Extra Fine 120.
GAUGE
23 Stitches, 28 rows to 10 cm
NEEDLES
One set of five dpns 3.5mm US size 4. One crochet hook 3mm US size D/3. One blunt embroidery needle.
SKILL LEVEL
Beginner. Need to know how to knit, increase and decrease
STUFFING
Use 100% wool batting for stuffing because they make the balls firmer and suppler and they keep their shape. Although this material is more expensive, you will need less filling per ball.
Choose natural white or beige colours. Figure on about 20 gr / .70 oz per ball.
CRYSTALS or RHINESTONES
Because we are celebrating that our Christmas Balls book is ten years old, we have embellished all 24 new balls with flat back Swarovski Crystals (you can also use rhinestones
which you can get in craft stores).
