Cones

Cones are the forest’s own beautiful Christmas decorations. These small knitted cones are a great addition to decorations for the Christmas tree or for a branch found in the woods.

They are also decorative if arranged on a dish along with Christmas balls or put on a package as a cute little greeting from a knitter.
