Designed by Marija Sliogeris of Daisies in the Sunshine

Add some extra enchantment to your Christmas festivities by crocheting these Christmas snowflakes to use as tree ornaments, table setting accents, gift toppers, or even mug coasters. They work up quickly, making them perfect to make as last minute gifts, or Christmas market inventory.

Three of the snowflake designs are worked around a wooden ring, adding a fun boho touch. The other three snowflakes are similar in design to the first three, but without a wooden ring, resulting in a more traditional snowflake.

The pattern provides lots of support, including photos and charts, making this pattern ideal for the experienced beginner.

Gauge instructions include how to adapt for other yarn weights or for using a BWM wool yarn rather than cotton.
