Christmas crochet ornaments for the tree, the window and the door
Would you like to decorate your Christmas tree, your windows and your front door with crochet decorations you made yourself this year? This book shows you step by step how to crochet 27 festive designs, from cheerful gnomes with pom-pom hats to round ball ornaments and colorful spiral spinners that turn with every breath of air. Each pattern opens with its own complete materials list, including the exact yarn colors, its skill level and any special stitches, so you know before you start what to prepare.
What's inside: 27 festive designs
11 spiral wind spinners
Lucky Snowman, Snowy Snowman, Frosty Snowman, Christmas Star, Christmas Pudding, Hot Chocolate, Little Ginger, Gingerbread House, Christmas Fire, Christmas Tree with Gift Box and a Santa Double Spiral. The long crocheted spirals are shaped with craft wire and twirl gently in the light. Hung in a window or at the front door, they are real eye-catchers.
5 gnome ornaments
Santa, Reindeer, Christmas Tree, Tiger and Striped Hat gnomes, each about 5 in (12 cm) tall. Round bodies, fluffy beards and tall hats make them perfect tree ornaments, and strung together they become a sweet gnome garland.
11 ball ornaments
Snowman, Reindeer, Gingerbread, Christmas Tree, Cow, Poinsettia, Bell, Snow Globe, Tiger, Candle and Mitten. These small, round ornaments are quick projects for cozy Advent evenings and look lovely on the tree, on gift packages or on an Advent wreath.
Materials and hook sizes
- Spiral wind spinners: medium weight (#4) yarn with a 2.5 mm hook; the Lucky and Snowy Snowman use plush yarn with a 4.5 mm (US 7) hook; the Santa Double Spiral uses 4-ply milk cotton with a 2.5 mm hook
- Gnomes and ball ornaments: fine (#2) cotton blend yarn with a 2–2.25 mm (US B-1) hook
- For the spirals: craft wire and wire cutters
- Also: safety eyes or 5 mm black beads (depending on the pattern), fiberfill, stitch markers, yarn needle, pins and scissors, white and red felt and glue for some details, and thread for hanging
Yarn and tools are not included with the book. Leftover yarn from earlier projects is often enough for many ornaments: red, white, green, brown and a warm yellow cover most of the designs. If you crochet several ornaments in the same colors, your tree will look beautifully coordinated.
Christmas crochet for beginners and beyond
The skill levels range from beginner to intermediate, so there is a project for every crocheter. If you are new to amigurumi, start with the crochet crash course. It covers:
- the abbreviations used in the book
- the magic ring as the start of round pieces
- color changes and working in the front and back loops
- the invisible finish for neat edges
- how to make the wire spiral for the wind spinners
- a photo guide to yarn pom-poms for the gnome hats
Step-by-step photos accompany every part of every pattern, so you never have to guess how the pieces go together. Ava's tips for each design share the small tricks that make a big difference, and the full-color print keeps the instructions clear and easy to read.
Tips for your first Christmas project
- Practice the magic ring before you begin your first ball ornament.
- Start with a ball ornament or a gnome: they are small, and you will soon hold a finished piece in your hands.
- Check the skill level and hook size at the start of each pattern and lay out your materials first.
- Crochet the spiral wind spinners once you feel confident with rounds and color changes.
- Plush yarn hides stitches, so place a stitch marker at the start of every round on the plush snowmen.
- Plan backwards: if the ornaments should hang on the tree by the first Sunday of Advent, start now.
Handmade Christmas gifts and holiday decorations
The finished ornaments make wonderful handmade Christmas gifts, gift tags and decorations: a gnome garland on the tree, a gingerbread ball ornament on a present, or a cheerful snowman spinner at the front door. Because many ornaments are finished in one evening, you can still crochet a whole series shortly before Christmas. The book itself is also a lovely gift for crochet lovers.
All finished items you crochet from these patterns may be sold, for example at a holiday craft market. A credit to MrsCrochetWorld is appreciated but never required. What is not allowed is copying, sharing, reselling or uploading the patterns or the book itself.
