Deck the Halls

December 1, 2010

I’ve been crafting away for the holidays, whipping up small gifts for some very special people on my Christmas list.  Along the way, I came up with a simple beaded ornament pattern that I have decided to share with all of you.

This is a simple pattern designed to highlight little bits of leftover sock yarn.  They knit up fast and provide a great opportunity to play with color combinations.  This would be a great first beading project, too.  All you need is some beautiful leftover sock yarn, 100 size 6 seed beads, and a new or repurposed ball ornament.

A special thanks to my test knitters Jill, Betsy, Helena, and Crystal for being so fast and merry!

Happy holidays, and happy knitting to everyone.

    Cute! Pre-strung? (they look like they’re oriented differently than when hooked on)

    I was just so excited to take the photos while the sun was out that I forgot to put the ornaments on hangers!
