Crochet These Lacy Crochet Snowflake Ornaments
Difficulty Level
-
Level: Advanced Beginner
-
Why: The pattern works up quickly using foundational crochet stitches, but it transitions beyond basic rows. Crocheters must work in the round from a magic ring, work tall stitches (treble crochet) into open chain spaces, and form small chain-loop picots on top of stitches to shape the snowflake points without twisting their tension.

Special / Complex Stitch Instructions
Treble Crochet (tr)
-
Yarn over twice around your hook before inserting into the work.
-
Insert hook into the designated chain space, yarn over, and pull up a loop (you will have 4 loops on your hook).
-
Yarn over and pull through the first 2 loops (3 loops remain).
-
Yarn over and pull through the next 2 loops (2 loops remain).
-
Yarn over and pull through the last 2 loops to complete the stitch.
Decorative Chain Loop / Picot Point (3-ch or 6-ch loop)
-
After completing your treble or double crochet stitch, chain the required number (e.g., ch 3 or ch 6).
-
Insert your hook down through the top and front vertical loop/bar at the top of the stitch you just made.
-
Yarn over and pull the yarn through both the stitch and the loop on your hook in one smooth motion (slip stitch). This locks the chain arch into a pointed petal tip.
