Vintage Granny Square Christmas Tree
Welcome to the magic of crochet! Today, we will embark together on the enchanting journey of creating an adorable “Vintage Granny Square Christmas Tree”.
This project is perfect for those looking for a mix of tradition and modernity in their Christmas decorations. Let’s create lasting memories as we transform yarn into something truly special. Without further ado, let’s get started!
Necessary materials:
Crochet Yarn:
Choose festive colors like green for the tree, red for the decorations and gold for the sparkly touch.
Crochet needle:
Use a needle compatible with the chosen thread size.
Scissors:
To cut wires precisely.
Step 1: Starting the Tree Base
Let’s start with the center of the tree. Make a magic ring and work 3 chains, which will count as your first double crochet. Now, inside the ring, make 2 more double crochets, totaling 3 double crochets.
Step 2: Increasing the Layers
To create the conical shape of the tree, start each new layer with 3 chains (replacing the first double crochet), then work 2 double crochets in the same space. Now, in each double crochet of the previous layer, make 3 double crochets. Repeat this step until you reach the desired size for the base of the tree.
Step 3: Adding Festive Details
Switch to the embellishment color (e.g. red) and work a row of single crochets to create a decorative border. This will add a festive touch to your tree!
Step 4: Creating the Branches
Return to green and, in the spaces between the high points of the last layer of the tree, make sets of 3 high points. This will create the branches of the tree. Continue this pattern around.
Step 5: Decorating with Golden Glitter
Finish with a last row in gold, making single crochets at the top of each double crochet. This will add a sparkly touch to your vintage Christmas tree.
Step 6: Finishing and Admiring
Finish the work with a slip stitch, cut the thread and tie tightly. Take the moment to admire your creation. Feel free to add beads, bows, or any additional embellishments!
