Materials Needed

Instructions

Follow these step-by-step instructions to crochet a magic snowflake:

Begin by making a magic ring. To do this, make a loop with your thread, insert your hook into the loop, and then chain 1.

Work 12 double crochet stitches into the center of the ring. Join with a slip stitch to the first double crochet stitch to close the round.

Chain 4, skip the next stitch, and then work a single crochet stitch into the next stitch. Repeat this pattern around the entire round.

For the next round, work a chain-3 loop into the chain-4 space from the previous round. Then work a single crochet stitch into the next single crochet stitch from the previous round. Repeat this pattern around the entire round.

For the next round, work a chain-6 loop into the chain-3 loop from the previous round. Then work a single crochet stitch into the next single crochet stitch from the previous round. Repeat this pattern around the entire round.

For the final round, work a chain-12 loop into the chain-6 loop from the previous round. Then work a single crochet stitch into the next single crochet stitch from the previous round. Repeat this pattern around the entire round.

Fasten off and weave in any loose ends with your tapestry needle.

And there you have it – a beautiful crocheted snowflake! You can make several of these to create a winter wonderland, or use them to decorate your tree or wreaths. The possibilities are endless with this versatile crochet pattern.

If you're new to crocheting, it's important to take your time and practice each step until you're comfortable with it.
