How Long Does It Take To Crochet One Christmas Ornament?
Each of these crochet Christmastime ornaments is very quick to complete. If you know how to work basic stitches in the round and you’ve done some amigurumi before, making these festive baubles will be a piece of cake for you.
An experienced crocheter should be able to finish such an ornament within 1-2 hours, depending on one’s crocheting pace.
What Yarn Works Best For Crochet Christmas Ornaments?
For this crochet pattern, choose fingering or sport-weight yarn and a 1.3 mm crochet hook. With these supplies, you’re going to create beautiful handmade baubles that feature intricate details and great stitch definition.
The designer recommends using Vita Lira, which is a semi-acrylic yarn. A great but more popular option is also YarnArt Jeans available in lots of colors.
How Do I Make My Crochet Ornaments Keep Their Shape?
If you want your crocheted Christmas baubles to hold their structure well, be sure to stuff them with polyester fiberfill. It’s an easy way to shape each piece and give it a nice plump look and squishy feel.
After the holiday season is over, store your handmade decorations in a box, but be careful not to weigh them down with anything heavy. A proper storage method is key if you want your ornaments to last many years.
