Hi guys, Bobbi here and I'm back to show you how to crochet this really cute
0:04
Christmas tree ornament pattern. So this ornament is five inches tall and for
0:09
this pattern I used a yarn called Mira. I actually found this yarn on Amazon and
0:14
it came in a set of 12 with different colors. Its yarn weight is number three
0:19
which will be perfect for making ornaments and on the back of the yarn
0:22
you can see that a 4.5 crochet hook will work out great and that's exactly what
0:26
I'm going to use. So here's my crochet hook and as you can see it is a 4.5 millimeter and that
0:32
converts to a 7 US crochet hook. So if you don't have a 4.5 a 4 millimeter would work too. I will
0:40
also be using a yarn needle, some yarn scissors, some polyester poly fill stuffing, small buttons
0:47
Now I actually found this set on Amazon and I will put the link in the description box below
0:52
I'm going to be using some different colors of thread to sew on my buttons but if you only have
0:56
one color like a white then that should work too. And lastly I will be using a thread needle to sew
1:01
on the buttons. Okay so before we get started go and grab the written pattern for this tree ornament
1:07
and that way you can have the pattern right by your side as you follow along with me. Now the
1:12
pattern is on my website and I will link the patterns page in the description box below and
1:17
I will also link all of the supplies that I'm using today as well. Okay to start this pattern
1:22
off we're going to go ahead and make a slip knot and then we're going to chain
1:26
three so there's one two and three okay for row one we're going to place a single
1:39
crochet into the second chain from our hook so there's our first single crochet
1:47
now we're going to place one more single crochet in the very last chain
1:56
and that will make a total of two single crochets okay for row two we're going
2:02
to chain one that will be our turning chain so turn your work around and now
2:06
we're going to place two single crochets in each stitch across so that'll be a
2:11
total of four single crochets. So there's one and place one more single crochet
2:19
into the same stitch. So there's two and then place two more single crochets into
2:26
the next stitch. So there's one and two into that very last stitch
2:41
For row three, we're going to chain one, and then turn our work, and we're going to place
2:49
two single crochets into that very first stitch. So there's one and two into the first stitch, and now we're going to place one single crochet
2:59
into the next two stitches. So there's one and two
3:10
Now in the very last stitch we'll place two more single crochets
3:16
So there's one. And two single crochets into the same stitch, into that very last stitch
3:25
On row four we're going to chain one, then we're going to turn our work

18:39
and ten and place two into the last single crochet stitch so there's one
18:50
and two into that last stitch and that will give us a total of 14 single crochets for that row Okay so rows 20 through 24 are exactly the same
19:03
as all of the other rows that we've done. So I'm going to let you do those rows on your own
19:07
So go ahead and pause the video here and finish up those rows. And remember that you just need to increase
19:13
the first stitch and the last stitch. So remember, just place two single crochets
19:17
into the first stitch and two single crochets into the last stitch
19:21
And also remember that when you finish row 24, remember you'll have 24 single crochets in all
19:30
Okay guys, now that we've finished the tree, we need to go ahead and make another one
19:34
so that we can sew them together. So if you need to rewind this video
19:37
go ahead and crochet the second side of this tree, and then I'll meet you back here and show you how to sew these two sides together
19:44
Okay, so after you crochet the second side of the tree, go ahead and put both of the trees together
19:50
And now we're going to single crochet around these two pieces together
19:55
To do this, go ahead and make a slip knot. Insert your hook into the left side of the tree
20:06
Make sure to insert it into the first tree and into the second tree
20:16
Grab your slip knot and pull the slip knot through both of the trees
20:27
Now you're going to single crochet around this tree, and as you're doing it
20:32
make sure to tuck your tail ends into the middle of the trees so that way you don't have to go back
20:36
and weave those in later. Now, it doesn't matter how many single crochets
20:40
you get around the tree. Our main goal is just to get these two sides
20:44
stitched together. So again, it doesn't matter how many stitches you use to do this
20:49
So just make sure you're inserting your hook into both front and back trees
20:53
and that you're only single crocheting just the sides together. Now I start on the left side because I want to single crochet
20:59
around the entire tree except for the bottom. We want to leave the bottom of the two trees open
21:05
so that we can fill this tree with stuffing. So I'm going to speed up the track and finish this up
21:11
and I'm going to leave the bottom open and I will be back to show you how to fill up
21:15
this tree with stuffing. Okay, to fill this tree with stuffing, first I'm just going to tuck my tail ends into the
21:40
tree. I'm going to cut them down just a little bit. I'm going to go ahead and stuff them up
21:43
into the tree. And then I'm going to go ahead and take my stuffing and I'm just going to start
21:49
stuffing it. I'm not going to overstuff it too full. And you don't want to understuff it either
21:54
So kind of just find that happy medium. Make sure to fill those sides as well. You want to make
21:59
sure that everything is pretty good and stuffed. And I'm just speeding up the track here to finish
22:08
up the stuffing. And now we're just going to finish by single crocheting the bottom of the two
22:18
trees together. Now go ahead and grab your yarn needle and let's weave in that last loose yarn end
22:54
And I'm going to weave mine in by just working around a couple of crochet stitches and then
22:59
I'll just cut it off when I'm done. So now we just need to make something in order to hang this tree ornament up
23:09
So what we're going to do is we're going to start with a slipknot
23:12
So go ahead and insert this slip knot into the very top of the tree. And we're going to slip stitch it into the top of the tree
23:29
So slip stitch and now go ahead and chain 20. So there's one, two, three, four, five, six
23:38
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20
23:56
Now just take the end of the chain and slip stitch it back into the top of the tree
24:01
now go ahead and cut your yarn in leaving a few inches for weaving
24:10
and just pull the yarn through to fasten off go ahead and just weave those tail ends back into the tree
24:26
so I'm just using some thread and a thread needle and I'm going to sew my buttons onto this tree
24:31
and I actually went ahead and made four different trees and I put on four different kinds of buttons
24:38
so I'll show you those buttons in a minute and to save some time I'm just speeding up the track
24:43
just to kind of give you a quick look at how I'm sewing on the buttons
24:47
okay so here are my finished trees I just took some quick pictures of them to show you how they
24:59
turned out and I think they turned out really cute. So I just wanted to thank you guys for

25:08
