After seeing a pattern for crocheting ornament covers in a crochet magazine I thought they would make a great holiday activity for my family to do together. But even though it’s an easy pattern, there are still elements a newbie would struggle with. So I decided to make my own design using the very basics of crochet. And here it is! Add a little glitter for some sparkle and don’t forget the ribbon!

Skill Level:

Finished Size: 9″ in diameter

Materials: Medium Weight Yarn (approximately 15 yards) Crochet Hook G (4.00 mm) 8 1/2” ball ornament

Gauge:
Row 1 in pattern measures 2” in diameter
