Christmas Flower Centered Tree Amigurumi Ornament
Making this festive tree is fun and full of color. You begin with a small yellow circle for the flower center. Next, you add two rounds of white yarn to make rounded daisy petals. Then, you switch to green or red yarn to shape the flower into a neat triangle. Finally, you stitch the piece together, add a top hanging loop, and crochet a small brown trunk at the bottom.
Difficulty Level & Explanation
-
Level: Advanced Beginner
-
Why: The project requires changing colors four times (yellow, white, red/green, and brown) and switching between circle and triangle geometry. To turn the round flower into a three-sided tree, you must place tall treble stitches and long chain spaces precisely in the corners while maintaining even tension on the petal clusters.

Special Technique: Treble Crochet Corner (1 tr, 5 ch, 1 tr in same st)
This tall stitch combination pops out from the round edge to create the sharp top tip and bottom corners of the tree:
-
Yarn over twice: Wrap your yarn around the hook two times before inserting it.
-
Insert and draw loop: Insert your hook into the corner stitch, yarn over, and pull up a loop (4 loops on hook).
-
Work off loops:
-
Yarn over, pull through the first 2 loops (3 loops left).
-
Yarn over, pull through the next 2 loops (2 loops left).
-
Yarn over, pull through the final 2 loops. Your first tall treble stitch is complete.
-
-
Make the corner space: Chain 5 (this creates the corner loop).
-
Work the second treble: Yarn over twice, insert the hook into that exact same corner stitch, and complete a second treble crochet. This creates a wide, sharp point.
