Buffalo Plaid Holiday Ornaments

This holiday season create a tree full of hand-knit ornaments! The pattern gives instructions for a three-color checked ornament in both a small and large size.

The ornament is knit as one continuous piece. No sewing of seams is necessary. Knitting begins at the bottom and moves up into the checked pattern, and ends with a tie off at the top. Near completion, a clear, plastic, craft-store ornament is inserted into the knitted piece and the final stitches are synched tight around the ornament’s plastic neck.

Once complete, the metal wire cap hanger is inserted into the opening at the ornament’s top -- the crowning touch!
