Materials You’ll Need

You don’t need a mountain of supplies to make your very own handmade Christmas tree crochet ornament. Here’s what you’ll need to get started:

• Green yarn (worsted or DK works beautifully!)
• A touch of gold or sparkly yarn for accents
• Small amount of brown yarn (for the trunk)
• Crochet hook (usually 3.5-4 mm, but check your PDF for details)
• Yarn needle & scissors
• Optional: fiberfill stuffing, tiny beads, or sequins for extra flair

Techniques Used – Don’t Worry, It’s Easy!

Don’t stress—this beginner crochet Christmas tree uses only simple stitches! You’ll practice the classic granny square, a bit of easy shaping, and basic color changes. If you can chain, single crochet, and double crochet, you’re ready to go.

Creative Styling & Use Ideas

Once your mini crochet Xmas tree is finished, the fun has only begun! Use it as a charming tree ornament, festive package topper, or cozy little wall hanging. Create a garland by stringing several trees on twine, or give each family member their own personalized tree by adding embroidered initials. These cuties even work as sweet keychains, gift tags, or table decorations at your next holiday gathering. Handmade decorations make everything feel a little more magical!

Hand Trendy Pro Tips

Here are my favorite tricks for a picture-perfect christmas tree crochet pattern every time:

• Use metallic yarn for the "garland" to add instant sparkle—so festive!
• Don’t worry if your corners aren’t crisp; a little blocking will shape them up perfectly.
• Try stitching on mini seed beads as ornaments or glue a tiny star on top.
• These work up quickly, so make a whole batch and stash a few for last-minute hostess gifts.
• If gifting, attach your DIY crochet Christmas decor to a handmade card for thoughtful presentation.

There’s no right or wrong here—embrace your creativity and have fun!
