Add a unique personal touch to your festive cheer! Quick and easy to make, and needing very little yarn, Festive Frill 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, the ball is 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 colour, or ones that boldly glitter against the rich boucle background.

The ball measures 4”/10cm in diameter and 10.5”/26.5cm circumference.

Uses only 45 yards of Arctic Wolf boucle yarn.

Gauge:14 sts x 16 rows in st st
