While trying to figure out what to do with my massive stash of mis-matched scraps, I came up with this ornament pattern. They are very easy to work up, so you could make an entire set of the in an afternoon.
With all the funky colors I used, my family decided the ornaments looked like they belonged on the the Christmas Trees of Who-Ville. Now all I need is a funky looking tree to hang them on =>
Supplies:
4.25 mm crochet hook
multi-color worsted weight yarn
solid color worsted weight yarn that coordinates with the multi-color yarn
stitch marker
scissors
