This appears on paper to be quite complicated, but once you understand the workings of the pattern, it’s really quite simple.

I’ve tried to break the pattern down as much as I can to give step by step instructions for each round.

Please use a stitch marker or you’ll just get lost.

It’s worked with a 3.00mm hook and fits around a 20cm circumference bauble, but obviously you can change hook sizes to make it bigger or smaller.

The stitches don’t need to be too tight either, otherwise it won’t slide over the bauble easily.
