I am always looking for new things and new ways to yarn bomb the everyday objects around the house. The silly season is the perfect opportunity to take things to a new level of daft, all in the name of Christmas!
Dressed up in their festive finery they’ll look just fabulous on a windowsill or table, planted with a small conifer or poinsettia (what a great gift!)
I designed these festively themed flower pot covers for Simply Knitting magazine and you can find the pattern inside issue 139.
For the Santa pot you will need:
- James C Brett, Twinkle DK (97% acrylic, 3% polyester, 100g/300m) Red
- Stylecraft , Special DK (100% acrylic, 100g/295m) Black
- Oddment of Gold DK
For the Snowman pot you will need:
- Patons, Merino extrafine DK (100% wool, 50g/120m) White and Black
- Oddment of orange DK
- Stuffing
- Buttons
For both:
- 3.25mm DPN’s
- Black 13cm flowerpots
As always I would love to see your finished projects,
Happy Knitting,
Jane Burns
