Knit a Christmas ball ornament

There is always place for one more beautiful ornament on the Christmas tree! Knit your own, super easy Christmas ball!

Step 1: Choose your favorite 3 colour combination of any yarn. The heavier the yarn bigger the ornament will be.

Step 2: With colour A Cast on 25 stitches

Row 1: Knit front and back of the loop (or use any other method you like to increase 1 stitch), knit to last 2 stitches, knit 2 together.

Row 2: Knit all stitches.

Do not break yarn. The edge will stay hidden inside the finished ball.

Attach colour B and repeat Row 1 and 2, then do the same with colour C.

Repeat for 60 rows in total. Bind off leaving long tail.

With wrong side facing down, fold to match Cast-on with Bind off edges. Sew them together to form a tube.

With the tapestry needle weave the yarn tail just below the the edge. Pull yarn tightly to close.

Turn ornament inside out and stuff  to form a ball.

With the tapestry needle repeat as for the bottom edge. Pull half way and stuff until a nice ball is formed. Pull tight and secure yarn.

Add a charm and form a loop with the remaining tail. Hang on the tree!
