Last Christmas Ornament of the Year


crochet heart ornament

This little heart is my last crocheted ornament for this year.

I came up with the pattern myself. I used size 10 crochet thread, and the heart came up three inches high. I think it would have looked much better with a red ribbon, but I didn’t have it on hand, so I used a golden one.

Despite the fact that the pattern is quite simple, I had trouble sketching it on paper. Besides, I would need someone to test the pattern before I could post it here. And with Christmas only a few days away, I don’t think anyone would agree to that.

I will try to sketch the pattern after the holidays and find someone to test it. Hopefully, I will be able to share it with my readers before Valentine’s Day when crochet hearts will be relevant again.

As for now, I am putting away my crocheting hooks and threads until after Christmas.

Happy Holidays to all of you! Enjoy this wonderful time of the year!
