a buffalo-plaid Christmas!

 

Buffalo-Plaid Holiday Ornaments

Just practically finished knitting up my Buffalo-Plaid Pumpkins and its Christmas season already! So to keep the spirit going, how about a Buffalo-Plaid Holiday Ornaments pattern too. Slightly different color schemes but still the same ol' plaid we know and love.

The pattern gives instructions for a three-color checked ornament in both a small and large size. The small knit ornament measures about 3-inch wide by 2.75-inch high (including the metal cap). And the large one, measures about 4-inch wide by 3.5-inch high. 

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 is inserted into the opening at the ornament's top -- the crowning touch!

Have fun knitting endless combinations of colors! Coordinate the colors with your living room decor. They make great ornaments for your holiday tree, hostess gifts or Christmas decor.

Happy Buffalo-Plaid Holidays!
