Simple Crochet Ornaments!! Crocheted Christmas Ornament Tutorial

Learn how to make these super simple and quick crocheted Christmas ornaments! Just four rounds, these work up quick and would look great in any number of colors. Make one or a hundred and one! Free pattern and instructions below...
Inspired by ornaments made by Crochet with Raymond (crochethealingandraymond.word...)
The yarns I used (available at Michael's #notsponsored):
Loops and Threads Impeccable Claret #01532
Loops and Threads Impeccable Forest #01243
Loops and Threads Impeccable Heather #01010
Crochet hook size H, 5.0mm or UK size 6 (although size doesn't need to be exact).
Rnd 1: With color A: using the magic loop method, work 10hdc in the loop (using the first ch2 as the first hdc). Join in the top ch of the beginning ch2. Fasten off. (10 stitches)
Rnd 2: With color B: working between the stitches of the previous rnd, join yarn, ch2 (counts as first hdc) and work 2hdc (V-stitch) in between each stitch of the previous rnd. Join in the top ch of the beginning ch2. Fasten off. (20 stitches)
Rnd 3: With color C: again, working between stitches, join yarn in between two V-stitches of the previous rnd, ch2 (counts as first hdc), 2hdc in the V-stitch of the previous rnd and continue around. Join in the top of beginning ch2. Fasten off. (30 stitches)
Rnd 4: With color A: working in the top of the stitches of the previous rnd, join yarn in the first stitch of a V-stitch of the previous rnd. Ch1 and sc in the same space. Sc in next stitch, long hdc over single hdc of previous rnd (inserting hook into the space the stitch you're working over was worked). Continue working around putting 1 sc in each of the hdc's of the V-stitches of previous rnd and a long-hdc over the single stitches. Join in top of 1st sc and fasten off.
Make two.
To join pieces, put each back to back. Join yarn and sc together around. To make a hanging loop, pull your working yarn long, wrap hook behind the forward yarn and catch yarn behind (being sure to catch both pieces) and pull through. Yarn over and pull through all 3 loops on the hook. Join, fasten off and weave in end.

I live in a small log cabin, I have a completely home made Christmas tree. Each yr I try to add something new. These will b perfect!! Thnx for the easy to follow tutorial and for making my Christmas a little brighter. PS.. you have a very soothing voice.

[@patrick7mary]

Susan, these will be perfect for your beautiful log cabin home, these colors are so earthy and gorgeous on your tree! I agree with the sound of his voice, his tutorials are so quick and easy, yet so doable :) Merry Christmas! 🎄 p.s. I am looking for some quick and easy ornaments to add to my Christmas cards that are flat and won’t take up too much space ;) 💗🎄💗

[@patrick7mary]

Oh if you like soothing voiced tutorials, lol, try out iknitwithcatfur... her voice is soooooo soothing, I knit and crochet, so I knit while I watch her videos, you could crochet while you watch... some of her earlier ones are when she is outside and you can hear birds chirping, some times she is inside and you can hear the dryer going which is soothing and her sweet little child cooing, lolllll ... 🤗💗🤗

[@susancousineau841]

MSUma MSU... Michigan State University?

[@susancousineau841]

MSUma I've never watched her, but I'll definitely look for her. I prefer tutorials I can work along with. I live alone so it's almost like I have company. its nice when it's not so sterile, and dead silent. I watch alot of card making tutorials and I really enjoy it when you can here the dog snoring beneath, or the cat keeps trying to steel things off the table.

[@hollyandjaidynrapp919]

Your voice is so relaxing!!! I was searching your other projects just to hear you explain to me how to make things....while I make these

[@KarenGilbert-xb2tg]

Thank you for your easy instructions on how to make this beautiful Christmas ornament

[@user-dj7db9wn1w]

Hi,thanks so much. I made my first snow flake. I plan on giving it to my mom.😊

[@judithnathandvaz2804]

Humble gratitude burnt-out skill, I had made one medallion following you last season n u was ever so grateful to find you. Once again thank you

[@indigog7146]

I've never run to the store to go buy yarn for a project faster - I've been making these nonstop, and I'm so excited to give them to literally everyone I know! Thank you for this awesome tutorial, it was super easy for even a beginner like me to follow!!

[@raffaellagaspari5072]

Very good job....many compliments...the biggest surprise was to hear a man... 🎄🎁🎅

[@KarenGilbert-xb2tg]

I have just come across your christmas ornaments and you showed how to make them with great instructions l just loved the way you took your time in every detail thank you ever so much

[@livndeadgrl8370]

[@alicebair1811]

You’re an excellent teacher!! Love this video!! Beautiful ornament!! Thanks for sharing!! 🎄

[@MissMellyVee]

These are absolutely delightful, I can just imagine how lovely they will look on a tree, how very clever!

[@yvonnemason9137]

I'm a total beginner and I've just made the first half of my first one and it actually looks like yours (although not quite so neat) and I'm jumping for joy! Can't wait to finish this and make lots more. You make it really easy and explain so clearly. Thanks so much! :D

[@charliecharlton9782]

Perfection. Love the choice of colors too 🎅🌲🤶 Thank you.

[@pebbles7864]

I watch all your tutorials and I love everything you crochet! Thank you for for teaching me so many fun and beautiful crochet projects! you are great at this!

[@getafreehug]

Looks great and I'm glad that it's stuffed with just the long ends so it makes it so easy

[@theresakearney1094]

I am totally addicted to making these decorations. I am more of a knitting person, just knowing a bit about crocheting. These looked complicated but by following your video, I do them now without watching and everyone is asking for them. We have a very large family and each one looking for different colours. Great tutorial, great explanations as I went through the tutorial. I hope to find more of your tutorials as I have found my love for crocheting again. Thank you so much 😊

[@colleenisaac6647]

So glad to see one of your instructional KZbins again! Seems like it's been a long time. I don't crochet as much as I knit but I think I could do this! Your directions are very clear! Thank you!

[@johannadayy4770]

Finally!! Someone that explains It a little better?!

[@michelleclare6250]

This is a very nice crocheted ornament...I start all my circular centers with the Magic Circle, I have started doing this since I was 10 years old, I am now in my 70s. I always called it "closing up the center", lo and behold, it now is a magic circle. I only wrapped the yarn one time around my finger and just pulled the yarn through, that seemed to work for me. I will try it your way, thanks so much for sharing, I enjoy your videos, all the best, Michelle

[@cindyralston3633]

You are a clear, concise instructor... and I love the colors that you chose. Can't wait to make some these charming ornaments. Thanks!

[@PaulaNoakes]

What a fun and easy ornament! I'm going to make a bunch of these for our tree this Christmas! Thanks!

[@susieinthecountry4434]

thanks for including the pattern in the description box. this pattern is a great stash buster and could be used as a gift tag! thanks again.

[@rosahodge420]

I made dozens of these last year...Everyone loved them. Great specialty items for the fam. Thanks again. s

[@dilemmix]

How gorgeous, thank you! A few days later... I made 8 of them now, in Christmas colours and different combinations. Awesome! It's very addictive!

[@dorisdybowski3110]

Beautifully done and no wasted yarn!! Love this!

[@mariansmith8747]

Wow, you are a very very good teacher. I also teach crocheting and knitting for about 8 years now. I come across some who know how to crochet/knit but should leave the teaching to others. You have a great teaching style and are easy to follow. Thank you for putting this cute pattern on Utube and presenting it so well.

[@katschmat889]

I'm making my kids a set of crochet ornaments this year. Just finished making this one following your tutorial. Thank you! Easy to make, easy to follow and it's a cute addition to the set.

[@rosiepaek]

[@csclose]

LOVE this project! Thank you...excellent video!

[@neviacavalic1732]

It is so beautiful and perfectly done

[@bettyadkisson1681]

I save all my cut off ends for stuffing ornaments & mini toys. It work good in a pinch.

[@nevarichey7352]

I loved this pattern. Went right out today and bought the yarn to match yours. I lucked out and it was on sale, buy two get one free! The ease and simplicity of the pattern is just fantastic. Instead of leaving long tails on the ends I opted to go into my scrap basket and use scraps of yarn that wouldn't be enough to make anything with and used it for my stuffing. I don't know if you are anything like me but I can't stand to throw away even the littlest scrap. So this made me feel that I finally found a useful solution for them. Thanks for this great Christmas idea.

[@dianeerdmann7779]

I love these! Thanks for teaching me!

[@Needlewich]
