In this tuto­r­i­al, we’ll use dou­ble cro­chet, sin­gle cro­chet stitch­es, puff stitch­es, and picot stitch­es to cre­ate intri­cate, lacy snowflakes. We’ll show you how to start with a mag­ic cir­cle or ring, insert your hook into the first chain, and use the slip stitch­es and the slip stitch (sl st) to join rounds. You’ll dis­cov­er the beau­ty of cre­at­ing 6‑pointed cro­chet snowflakes and learn how to make them in dif­fer­ent sizes by adjust­ing your hook size and the thick­ness of your yarn.

Our free cro­chet pat­terns are designed to make your snowflakes stand out.  As you work through the pat­tern, you’ll come across ch‑2 spaces and ch‑6 spaces, which add to the intri­cate stitch pat­tern of these gor­geous cro­cheted snowflakes.

This fes­tive sea­son, let your cre­ativ­i­ty shine with these easy cro­chet snowflakes.

To give your snowflakes a real look, we rec­om­mend using white or col­or­ful cot­ton and thin­ner yarn for del­i­cate, tiny cro­chet snowflakes. If you pre­fer a bold­er look, worsted-weight yarn will do the trick. Col­or changes can add a unique twist to your snowflake gar­land pat­tern, per­fect for dec­o­rat­ing your front win­dow or Christ­mas tree skirt.

Craft­ing cro­cheted snowflakes is a beau­ti­ful way to ush­er in the hol­i­day sea­son, and they make for excel­lent Christ­mas decor, hol­i­day orna­ments, and gift top­pers. Whether you’re a cro­chet enthu­si­ast or just start­ing, our video tuto­r­i­al will guide you through each step, from cre­at­ing a mag­ic ring to adding the fin­ish­ing touch­es.
