PATTERN NOTES
The Ball ornament is knit from the bottom up, starting with a small number of stitches. It is shaped using circular increases and decreases. An I-Cord loop is worked from two live stitches at the top of the Ball. Embroidered Snowflake motifs are added to the front and back of the Ball after completion.
The Chimney is worked seamlessly from the bottom up, starting with Judy’s Magic Cast-On. A simple slip stitch mosaic pattern forms the brick motif. The top of the ornament is grafted together leaving two stitches from which to work an I-Cord to form a loop for hanging.
The Tree ornament uses the Intarsia method for colorwork. The intarsia pattern is charted only. When switching to a new color in the same row, bring the new color up and around the previous color to prevent holes from forming in the work. Join color A as indicated in the chart. After the front and back of the Tree ornament are worked individually, the bottom and sides of the ornament are seamed, leaving two sets of live stitches on top of the piece. After stuffing the piece, these stitches are grafted together, leaving two stitches from which to work an I-Cord to form a loop for hanging. The stars are embroidered on the tip of the Tree after completion.
An illustrative schematic and stitch instructions are provided for the embroidery on the Ball and Tree ornaments.
