These French knit ornaments by the Dartmoor Yarn Company were originally conceived to decorate holiday cards, and they can absolutely do that, but they would also work as ornaments of the tree or little decorations to use in other places.
French knitting is basically the same as I-cord, worked using a spool knitter (here’s an easy way to make your own spool knitter, though for this project you’d want to use smaller sticks). It’s a great way for kids to play with yarn. These could also be made with finger knitting.
This would be a fun project to give the kids at your holiday gathering, if they need something to do before opening presents.
