It is December and what better way to celebrate than with a Christmas Crochet Countdown! I am planning to share lots of new patterns, ending on Christmas Eve, for you to use to make crocheted Christmas decorations and cute gifts for your family and friends. If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram, you may have seen that our family welcomed a new baby last week. He is very precious and we are all really enjoying spending time with him and so I may miss a few days here and there, but please bear with me.
Today is December 1st and the first pattern I would like to share is for a mini crocheted beanie ornament. I like to use these to decorate my tree but they can be hung anywhere you like. To make your own you will need a 4mm crochet hook, some scrap yarn, a yarn needle, a pom pom maker and some scissors.
