Using 4.5mm DPN\u2019s or straight knitting needles CO 12 sts using the picot cast on method (see video for additional help). The picot cast on will give you the frilly look at the bottom of your tree. If you don\u2019t want to use the picot cast on no worries! Simply cast on 12 stitches with your preferred method and continue following the instructions.<\/p>
This is important!<\/strong> Before we begin the base of our tree we will be knitting a set up row in order to increase the number of stitches to 23. You will knit the first stitch and then knit front and back (KFB) into the remaining 11 stitches. Set up row: K1, *KFB<\/strong>*<\/p>BASE OF TREE<\/p>

You can make a single tree if you want a flat ornament. If you want to make a stuffed ornament make two trees and assemble. Check out the full length knit along to see how I assemble my trees! These are quick, easy and there is plenty of room for creative liberties. I like to stuff my trees with poly fill and use a cinnamon stick for the base of my tree but you can use whatever you like! Yarn scraps also make a great suffing!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
