Wee, Little Trees
These little trees are sweet and festive on a table or windowsill. They are quick and easy to knit and are a good use for any stash or scrap yarn. I think of them as simple evergreens standing against the grey backdrop of winter, but they can also be embellished and used as tiny, Christmas trees. Make one or make a whole forest!
FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Approximately
Circumference: 3 1/2 (5 1/2, 7 1/2)”
Height: 2 1/2 (3 1/2, 4 1/2)”
MATERIALS
25-50 grams Light worsted or DK weight green yarn like:
Cascade 220 (100% peruvian wool; 3.5oz/100g, 219yds/200m) #9448 or
Trendsetter New York (100% organic merino; 1.75oz/50g, 180yd/164m) #16
Size 3 (3.25 mm) DPN’s
GAUGE
6 stitches = 1” in stockinette with size US 3 or size needle to obtain gauge
NOTES
While getting exact gauge is not crucial for this project, and the trees can be knit in any weight yarn, please consider going down a needle size or two from what you would typically use for the yarn you choose for this project. The fabric should be firm enough for the trees to hold their shape and stand on their own.
Trees can be filled with stuffing and glued, using a fabric glue, to a felt base as shown in the photographs.
