This book contains six of my patterns for creating lace crochet covered ornaments. I have crocheted for many years and have created many different ornament designs. I have kept a small notebook in which I write down the patterns as they are created. I have tried to streamline the patterns so that the ornaments can be recreated relatively quickly and easily. The rounds are done with very basic stitches and are repeated multiple times. The goal is to create rounds that are not too large, or over-crowded, so that the stitches lay nicely around a standard-sized ornament. Most of the ornaments I used for the patterns in this book are between 60-65mm in diameter, or about 2.25-2.5 inches in diameter. If you use different-sized globe ornaments or baubles, you will need to modify the patterns to fit. This can usually be accomplished by modifying the number of rounds, or by changing the number of chain stitches in the final round of each pattern. I hope you find these as much fun to make as I do. They look beautiful adorned on a Christmas tree, but are equally beautiful displayed in a tabletop display with multiple baubles in contrasting patterns. These also make wonderful hostess gifts during the holidays.Good luck and happy crafting! -Kristen
