Frostbloom Ornament

Description

The “Frostbloom Ornament” pattern is designed to give you that wonderful sense of accomplishment in just one short sitting. We start right from the center with a classic magic ring, building outward with a beautifully rhythmic sequence of simple stitches that create a lovely, petal-like depth. If you are a beginner, it is a wonderful, reassuring way to practice working in rounds and building texture without feeling overwhelmed. For my seasoned crafters, it makes a delightfully soothing, meditative project that you can easily finish while watching your favorite evening show.

These sweet little blossoms are wonderfully versatile, making them a joy to have around the house or to share with the people you love. They make absolutely stunning holiday tree ornaments, elegant gift toppers that add a personal touch to any package, or a beautiful year-round garland to brighten up a window. Because they work up so quickly, you can easily stitch up a whole handful to give as thoughtful teacher gifts, party favors, or heartwarming tokens of appreciation for friends and neighbors.

I had the absolute best time picking out the colors for these! Using a lovely cotton DK yarn gives the petals such wonderful stitch definition, whether you choose a crisp snowy white, a warm autumnal gold, or a deep winter teal. They look beautiful in solid shades, but you could easily change colors between rounds to make each blossom uniquely your own.
