Crochet Christmas Tree (Free Pattern)

Halloween is over which means Christmas has started and my pumpkins and autumn decorations are all in the process of being switched out for winter decorations. This is the first little ornament set I decided to make and I love how quickly they make up and how absolutely adorable they look!

This pattern is for a medium sized tree, which measures approximately 4.5” tall. You can easily add or remove rows to make a shorter or taller tree and I love having three sizes stacked together to create a little display. To make your own medium tree, you will need super chunky yarn (I used around 25g of King Cole Big Value Super Chunky in Forest), a 7mm crochet hook, some scissors, some toy stuffing and a yarn needle. I also like to hot glue a little wooden star to the top for decoration, but they look just as cute without.
