Crochet Snowflake

By Lorraine

Pretty crochet snowflake is intricate and yet easy to make. Use as an ornament, gift embellishment or window decoration. Great video how-to.My daughter, Erin makes pretty snowflakes each evening as she sits on the sofa watching TV. I couldn’t wait to finish my knitting projects so I could make a crochet snowflake. They are so fun and easy, I have already made a flurry of them 😉

Pretty crochet snowflake is intricate and yet easy to make. Use as an ornament, gift embellishment or window decoration. Great video how-to.We followed a great how-to video by Chandi @ExpressionFiberArts (scroll to video below). The snowflakes work up quickly and the video is easy to follow.  You can use whatever yarn/cotton you like. I used Caron Simply Soft Party, Color Snow Sparkle and crochet hook size H. With this yarn, the finished snowflakes measure 4.5-inches.

 

Crochet Snowflake decorating ideas

  • Fill the branches of your Christmas Tree
  • Attach to your window panes for a wintry look all the way through January and beyond.
  • Package in groups of six or twelve and give as gifts to friends, teachers or as a small hostess gift.
  • Add to wrapped presents instead of a bow.
  • Use to create a tablescape by scattering on the table or placing at individual place-settings.

    Thank you for this video! It was straightforward and easy to follow. It takes me less than 30 min to make one and I have made many snowflakes- they are SO PRETTY! I’ve been using sparkly while yarn and they look beautiful on my tree. I am making more for other family members- SO FUN!!! <3

    Thank you so much for this. I haven’t crocheted in years, and was looking for some gift ideas that I could make with stuff I already had. This is perfect and I’m very happy with my first attempt and it has brought some pre christmas joy into my afternoon. Thank you for sharing X

    Thanks so much for the snowflake video! Even I, as a crochet beginner, could follow it! The only question is, what did you say to mix with the water to stiffen the snowflake when blocking?

      Hi Julia,

      In the video, Chandi from Expression Fiber Arts mentions that she mixes equal parts white glue with water.

      I haven’t tried it because I don’t mind the snowflakes being soft but if you want them to be stiff and keep their shape here are guidelines I found in a search:

      Add the water and glue to a container large enough for a snowflake. Stir until combined.

      Dip the snowflake into the mixture making sure it is completely covered.

      Squeeze out the extra glue mixture.

      Lay the snowflake onto a flat surface covered with plastic wrap or waxed paper so the snowflakes won’t stick. Using your fingers on a toothpick, shape the snowflake.

      Allow to dry completely.

      Hope this is helpful to you!
      Kindly, Lorraine

      Thank you for your comment and wishes for the new year! All the best to you and yours as well 🙂

    Hi Lorraine, your little crochet stars are so simple and cute! I’m making them to attach to hostess gifts for some parties we are attending this season. Other snowflake patterns I’ve tried recently have often been so super hard and frustrating. These are nice and quick and easy, puts the fun back into it. Thanks a bunch for sharing!!

    Those are pretty. I crocheted snowflakes years ago with crochet cotton. I have a hard time working with that any more though. The stitches are too small. This would be perfect since you use the bigger hook
