These are also something I made for the cat shelter sale.. They are all made from the same pattern, and size varies due to different yarns. I use some of them for candle lanterns and some for flower vases.. They work well as both.
What you need: Some leftover yarn of 2 different colours, the small ones are made of cotton yarn (170 meters= 50 grams), and the larger ones of wool yarn (100 meters=50 grams), 5 knitting pins that fit the yarn, a sewing needle to secure the ends, a ribbon to tie on top, and a glass jar that fits the diameter of your work.( I use ordinary jam jars.)
1. Cast on 66 stitches with your base colour, and make a circle.
2. *Knit one, pearl one* repeat the whole round
3. Repeat nr 2, 2 times = 3 rows.
4. Knit one round.
5. Add your second colour, and follow the pattern.
6. Knit one round with your base colour.
7. *Knit one, pearl one* repeat the whole round
8. Repeat nr 7, 2 times = 3 rows.
9. Cast off.
10. Secure all ends
11. Put a glass inside, and tie a ribbon on top 😊
