Big Bauble Crochet-along: Part 1

Download Pattern

“I’m delighted to be getting into the Christmas spirit by designing two cheery sets of baubles! This first set of six features interesting shapes including a droplet and a bell, plus spots, stripes and snowflake motifs. There are lots of colour changes, so please note that when changing colour you should pull the new colour through the last two loops of the previous stitch to complete it, and then continue in the new colour. When working stripes carry the unused colour loosely on the wrong side so it does not pucker, and crochet over it to secure and hide the unused strands. I hope you enjoy these jolly makes, and don’t forget to come back for the next six!” Heather Gibbs, designer
