Decorating for the Holidays has always been my favorite Christmas activity. And now that I crochet, I enjoy decking the halls even more!
The best part is that you get to choose your own style of Christmas decorations.
For example, for a classic Christmas, you could crochet your ornaments in white or only neutral shades. Or, you could go for bright and cheerful colors, or rainbow pastels, only gold, etc. The options and styles are endless!
CROCHET ORNAMENTS – Quick & Easy!
Traditional Christmas wreaths, little star appliques, crocheted baubles, reindeer, Santa Amigurumi… There are just so many fun patterns out there for all crocheters, from beginners to more advanced ones!
And generally, these crocheted Christmas ornaments are small and quick to crochet.
This means that you can easily whip a little ornament in between larger projects like blankets, scarves, and all the handmade Christmas gifts you need to make for family and friends.
Moreover, all the kids will love an ornament or two as a present!
Finally, if you’re planning on a few Christmas markets before the holidays, make sure to have a few Christmas ornaments to sell at your venue.
What MATERIALS do you need to CROCHET ORNAMENTS?
Crocheting Christmas decorations requires very little yarn, and you can make some adorable ornaments using scraps and leftover yarn.
Cotton or acrylic, it doesn’t matter. Really, whatever yarn from your stash will work!
However, especially for the Amigurumi ornaments, you will need additional materials, such as stuffing, safety eyes, and maybe embroidery floss and a needle to add the small details.
Make sure to check each pattern before you start to make sure that you have everything you need.
