Preparation for the New Year is always a pleasant effort, especially the part that involves decorating the Christmas tree and the house. Previously, all decorations were made by themselves, later they were replaced by mass production toys. But the store toy can hardly claim the status of exclusive and sincere, carrying the unique energy of the house and its owners. We suggest you create your own unique decor for the Christmas tree - crocheted snowflakes.
Snowflake crochet "Tenderness" - step by step instruction
Knitting snowflakes is a very exciting and addictive process. Bind one, then immediately reach for the next one, and then one more. You will not notice how to tie the whole Christmas tree for just one evening! Note that one crochet pattern of crochet snowflakes can help create dozens of diverse snowflakes. Change the color of the yarn, add lurex, threads with beads and this same mating will look absolutely different. The complexity of the work is average and if you have a minimum knowledge of crochet, then you can easily take up work.
Necessary materials:
- Alize forever yarn, 100% acrylic, white
- hook 1.25 mm
- outline
On a note! The work is done with acrylic white threads. Alternatively, the last row can be threaded with the addition of lurex or beads. Both options will be interesting to play with the light of a garland.
Main stages:
- We dial 6 air loops and connect them to the ring. Then we unfasten 3 air loops, an air column with a three-piece crochet and previously typed air loops. Knits 3 air loops and again a magnificent column already with four links. We repeat 4 more times. In total there should be 6 air columns.
- We pass to the third row: we knit 3 air loops, which enter into a magnificent column of four links. Now we unfasten 2 air loops and again a magnificent column. Then 5 air loops and a new lavish column with a crochet. We continue to knit according to the scheme. In the third row of columns only 12, they form a hexagonal snowflake. At this stage, the knitted snowflake takes shape and you can already see a beautiful pattern.
- Go to the 4th row: 4 columns with a crochet from one loop, 2 air loops, 4 columns with a crochet from one loop, a column without a crochet (connect to the previous row as indicated in the diagram) and again columns with a crochet from one loop. So continue to the end of the series.
- The final 5th row is knitted according to the scheme: 6 columns without a crochet, 6 air loops, 1 column without a crochet, again 6 air loops, 1 column without a crochet (we attach the air loops to the snowflake in the same loop as the previous column without the crochet) . Air loops form miniature droplets on the tips of snowflakes. In all at each corner there should be 4 drops. Next, we unbind the columns to the next sharp tip without a crochet and repeat.
Crocheted snowflake "Sparkle" - step by step instruction
Snowflakes crochet with diagrams and descriptions make it much easier for newcomers to do the work. But we assure you, after several schemes you will necessarily want to make something or add a pattern at your own discretion. Remember that schemes are just a base, from which you can create your own unique snowflake, the only one in the whole world!
Necessary materials:
- yarn Peria Truva Kristal, polyester 74%, Lurex 26%; blue
- hook 1.25 mm
- outline
Main stages:
- We fix 6 air loops and connect, as in the previous version in a ring. We send 12 columns without a crochet.
- The next row is knitted according to the scheme: 24 columns without a crochet (from each loops we deduce 2 columns).
- We pass to the 4th row: an air loop, a column without a crochet, 5 air loops, 2 columns without a crochet. Thus, 6 corners of the snowflake are formed.
- We knit the 5th row: 2 columns without a crochet, 3 air loops, 1 column with a crochet, connecting the middle of the air loops of the previous row with this. Then 3 air loops, 2 columns without a crochet and again repeat the previous link as in the diagram.
The last 6th row is knitted according to the scheme: we cut 2 columns without a crochet into one, 3 air loops, a lavish column with a two-piece crochet, we sew 3 air loops and fix it on a magnificent column. Then we sew 3 air loops and a new lavish column with a crochet of two links, 3 air loops and fix it on a magnificent column. Once again we repeat the same element and at the end we sew 3 air loops and two columns without a crochet we cut into one. The result was an open-work tip of the snowflake. In total, we sew 6 such pieces.
Now we bind the loop with air loops and secure it. Snowflake "Spark" - ready!
