Why Crochet Baubles Make the Holidays Magical
There is something special about adding handcrafted touches to your holiday festivities. Crochet Christmas baubles will do just that. Unlike store-bought ornaments, they can be made in whatever colors, textures, and designs you like best. Plus, they’re very easy to make! Working them up is a relaxing way to enter the holiday season.
Whether you hang your crochet baubles all over your tree, scatter them on tables, or use them to decorate gift packages, they’ll bring lots of festive cheer into the room.
What You’ll Need to Crochet Festive Baubles
To bring these crochet ornaments to life, you’ll need sport-weight yarn in contrasting colors to make each bauble stand out. Work them with a 2 mm or 2.25 mm crochet hook to keep the stitches neat.
These baubles may be crafted using 6 cm foam balls, made over traditional ornament bases, or just stuffed for a softer look.
Crocheting Perfect Christmas Ornaments
The crochet Christmas babble pattern is suitable for intermediates and those with some experience. Work each ornament in the round, starting with a magic ring and then using single crochet and half double crochet stitches. After every round, join in the new color.
Once you complete your rounds, attach your bauble base or stuff your ornament to give it its final shape and character. And there you have a beautifully formed ornament to grace your home.
How to Care for Your Crochet Baubles
Handmade ornaments such as these crochet baubles can survive through many holiday seasons if you take proper care of them.
To prevent any color from fading, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Wrap each bauble with tissue paper or place them inside a sturdy box for storage. This will also ensure that they keep their shape and condition free from damage.
In case there is some dirt or fluff on them, a gentle wipe with a damp, soft cloth will freshen them up. For ornaments with foam bases, avoid excessive moisture to preserve their integrity.
