Can Beginners Make This Crochet Ornament?
Absolutely! This crochet Christmas ornament pattern is ideal for those with beginner experience. Just be sure to get familiar with the simplest crochet stitches, like chain and single crochet, and you will be all set up to complete these charming pieces with ease.
Can I Use Different Yarn Weights for This Pattern?
Yes, you can. In fact, it’s a great stash-buster project, so if you need to clear up your stash a little, this pattern is perfect for that. Using medium-weight yarn, you will end up with a handmade ornament approximately 3 inches (7.5 cm) in diameter.
However, to achieve a consistent look, it is advised that you use yarn of the same weight. Picking thinner or thicker yarn will result in differently sized ornaments.
The samples visible in the photos were made with Caron Simply Soft yarn and a 5 mm crochet hook.
How To Crochet The North Star Ornament
The simple construction of this crochet Christmas ornament means you can easily create a whole pack of them while watching your favorite movie or TV series.
The design features two identical circular panels, which are later stitched together to form the front and back of the ornament. You will work each panel in 5 joined rounds using mostly single crochets. After connecting both sections, all you need to do is add a hanging loop and a simple embroidery detail, which creates a beautiful star motif.
