Best Crochet Christmas Tree Decorations
When I get asked to describe myself at events, along with the usual info about my family and my job, I often add that I love Christmas. I started thinking about why I love Christmas so much and it definitely has to do with the atmosphere that we create in our homes with the Christmas decorations. For a few weeks our homes change and become magical grottos full of twinkling lights with elves and gnomes. It is always even more special when you can add in some handmade ornaments and I love to crochet a new bauble every year. This year, I have joined up with some lovely crochet friends to bring you the best premium and free crochet decorations around. Now my only problem is which one do I crochet first….
Starlight Crochet Christmas Ornament
If you are looking to give your tree an elegant and whimsical look, this is certainly the pattern for you. Stardust Gold Crochet clearly takes you through all the stages in the construction around the clear bauble and will soon be offering a video tutorial to help you crochet it.
Crochet Christmas Gnomes
Nothing says Christmas quite like a little gnome peaking out of the tree casting his (or her) magic. These two guys from the Loopy Lamb are just so cute and using faux fur yarn for the beards gives them that super adorable fluffy look.
Little Christmas Stars
An abundance of hand-made stars over your tree, what could be more perfect? Well only if they are crocheted. HandmadeRoseBag gives the traditional crochet star a twist by using paper yarn to create the outer circle. These stars are also perfect to use up left-over yarn from other Christmas projects.
This was the first crochet bauble I ever designed so it has a very special place in my heart. It is perfect for a tree featuring winter passtimes or for your skating-mad friends and family.
This mitten is the definition of cuteness overload. Who could resist having an adorable smiling mitten on their tree? In addition to the written pattern, Anvi’s Granny also shows you how to make this mitten in a video tutorial.
We all love hanging our stockings up at Christmas and then seeing if something has been left in them. These little cuties from Jo’s Crafty Hook are just perfect to slip in a sweet or two before hanging on the tree.
Ugly sweaters have become a thing in recent years and make a great accessory for a funky Christmas tree. Only these sweaters by Raffamusa Designs aren’t ugly but are just so darn cute.
One of the best things about Christmas crochet is that you can break out all the sparkly and metallic yarn that you have been hiding all year. The Crafty Therapist speaks to our glitter loving soul with these gorgeous sparkle stars.
We all love snowmen at Christmas time, maybe more so the type that we hang on our tree rather than the real ones made of very cold snow. This yarn snowman by Katherine Rombold is the most definitely the best kind of snowman.
These baby socks makes the cutest decoration for a baby’s first Christmas. Knitting with Chopstick’s baby socks will also fit a baby so why not make a pair to wear and a pair for the tree?
What a darling this little chap is, sitting on his swing gazing out from the tree. Octopus Crochet’s amigurumi pattern has a detailed photo tutorial so that your gnome on a swing will give your tree cuteness overload.
Snefnung means snowflake, and what reputable Christmas tree does not have a snowflake ornament on it? Lilinette Crochet’s delicate two-tone snowflake will add some extra elegance and wintery magic to your tree.
How cute are these Christmas jumpers? Knitter Knotter’s sweet design works up in less than hour so it would be a perfect last minute gift or decoration.
This adorable little chap is about the size of a 7 cm Christmas bauble so just the right size to hang on your tree (if you don’t end up just cuddling him). This cute pattern is available as a free download in Swedish and English on Virkvinga’s website.
I originally designed this Rudolf face as a festive badge but I have since made some with loops on the top to hang on the tree. They are a great addition to a woodland/fantasy tree
Now that you have seen all these wonderful crochet Christmas tree ornaments, I bet that you are in the same predicament as me and just don’t know where to start first. Let me know in the comments which ones you make and happy Christmas crocheting!
