This crochet bauble works up really quickly and can be made in any colour to match your decorations. It would also be really cute to make a set to give as a gift.
To make your own you will need a 7mm crochet hook, double knit yarn in two colours of your choice, scissors, a yarn needle and a small amount of toy stuffing. This will make a large bauble that is around 10” circumference.
