Christmas Balls are knit in the round from the bottom up. DPNs or magic loop method is used to work the balls. Stranded colourwork designs are worked around the ball and then decreases close the top. Each ball is stuffed before finishing. A crochet loop can be added at the end. Written and charted instructions are provided for you to knot some Christmas Balls of your own. If you would like to knit smaller balls, you could DK yarn on US size 4/3.5 my needles or fingering weight on US size 1/2.5 mm needles.
