Product Information

Take the long tail end of one of the ears and use your yarn needle to thread the end in through the base of the 6th stitch and out the top left of this stitch. To find the position for our ears, count 6 stitches along on the head piece, starting with the first st. Follow this stitch down to the round below, we’ll be using the 6th and 5th stitch of this second round down to attach our first ear. Catch the bottom of the ear together so it is folded in half. Attach ear to the top of the reindeer head slightly forward of the centre leaving room for the antlers. Count 9 stitches along from the first ear and repeat the same process for the second ear using the 11th and 10th stitch along. This should leave a space of 9 stitches in between the 2 ears. If you are going to use glitter, buy eco-friendly glitter, as regular glitter is dreadful for the environment. I like this biodegradable glitter by Hemway.

Numbers shown in ( ) at the end of each row/round indicates the number of stitches you should have at the end of that row/round. Thread through the base of the 6th stitch again but out at the top right this time (Pull the yarn tight as you go to attach the ear firmly). To keep our stitches tight we’ll be using a hook size smaller than recommended for the yarn for the main reindeer pieces, and 2 sizes smaller for the antlers to make them stiffer. I’ve spent time trawling through the thousands of tutorials to put together a list of ideas and inspiration for unique DIY baubles, ornaments and assorted other Christmas decor that will add a wonderfully homemade feel to your holiday decor. Fold the antlers so there is a long and a short antler. Sew down the row ends. Attach to the top of the bauble, one at each side.When switching colours after working the muzzle, we’ll be finishing with an invisible join for a neat finish as follows: Handmade with love, Layered Christmas Tree Ornaments are an easy way to spread cheer this Christmas!

Starting from the inside, thread out through the base of the stitch in the Beige area and make a stitch upwards through the Light Brown stitch top directly above. Please pay attention to the method, placement of stitches, and positioning to ensure you get the best results for your finished reindeer bauble. Substituting with continuous rounds or working increases in different positions may result in an unbalanced reindeer or a wonky face. Invisible join finishing method:

Using the recommended chunky/bulky weight yarn, the finished baubles measure approximately 4.5″/11.5cm wide (ear tip to ear tip), and approximately 4”/10cm tall (antler tip to base) with a head diameter of 2.5″/6cm. As a guide, using Aran/Worsted weight yarn and a 4mm and 3mm hook will reduce all dimensions by approximately half an inch.
