The cro­chet angel orna­ment begins with a mag­ic ring, form­ing a small loop of yarn to start work­ing in con­tin­u­ous rounds. You’ll use a mag­ic cir­cle to cre­ate the foun­da­tion, then move on to sin­gle cro­chet stitch­es, build­ing the base of the angel’s body. The first sin­gle cro­chet will estab­lish the cen­ter, and as you work through the pat­tern, the orna­ment begins to take shape. For the angel’s wings, you’ll use a com­bi­na­tion of dou­ble cro­chet and slip stitch to cre­ate a lacy, ele­gant design that will give your angel a del­i­cate look. You’ll add these wings to the back of the angel’s body, using a yarn nee­dle to secure­ly attach them.

As you work, be sure to mark the first stitch of each row with a stitch mark­er to help keep track of your rounds. As you progress, you’ll add the hang­ing loop to allow the orna­ment to be dis­played on your tree. A tapes­try nee­dle will help you weave in any loose ends for a neat, pol­ished fin­ish. The small size of the angel, com­bined with the lacy, detailed design, makes it a won­der­ful hol­i­day sea­son project. If you’re a fan of angel dec­o­ra­tions, this pat­tern will sure­ly become one of your favorite cro­chet pat­terns.
