Knit A Christmas Tree?

By bethanyjoy

Thanks to all who responded to my last post about my obsession.

While view blog stats, I noticed an amusingly large number of people found my blog whilst googling for “knit christmas tree”…which got me wondering.

Could it be done?

How would you, personally, knit or hook a christmas tree?

 

Personally, I think from the top down, in the round. Pairing increases and decreases to shape the points, of course. Maybe in a wool/mohair blend, so it could be fulled for additional shaping…you know, something like Peace Fleece?

Not, of course, that I’ve given ANY thought to the matter… ;)

…but just imagine the embellishing opportunities.

And, no shed needles on my carpeting.

You know, maybe this isn’t such a crazy idea…

    Hmm. I have no cat, so I have no idea. It would probably withstand my toddlers better than my live one is, though!

    Don’t forget to add knit ornaments and garlands when you’re done … oh, and knit birdies for the branches, and little knit bunnies to sit underneath …
