These festive ornaments are an intermediate knitter’s joy and look beautiful on a Christmas tree or as a gift in their own right. They each require just remnant quantities of yarn and are a fun way to bust those pesky leftovers in your stash!

Choose to knit any of the three seamless, 3D Twinkle Star variations included in this pattern with either 5 or 6 points.

Utilise your skills using Judy’s Magic Cast-on, either double-pointed needles or magic loop (or a combination of both), i-cord (decorative) and popcorn bobbles in this sweet but challenging ornament. Read from the pattern or work from the charts.

Cast on both sides, then transfer one side to a holding yarn before working decreasing rounds until 10 (12) stitches remain, then closing the hole using a tapestry needle. Pick up the held stitches and work the second side in a similar way before adding stuffing and a hanger, and closing the hole.
