Use short rows to make a colourful bauble for your Christmas tree. Wrap and turn for the short row shaping, and pick up wraps as you encounter them on the following rows to prevent holes forming at the point of the turn. This pattern also incorporates a provisional cast on and Kitchener stitch grafting. You will only need a few grammes of each colour of yarn to make the bauble, so this is an ideal project to use up ends of a yarn ball.

Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, the bauble is knitted in acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles (not in the round).
