It’s hard to believe that today is December 1st. Where did the year go? I’m sure that most of you feel like the year flew by. I know I sure feel that way. December brings one of my all time favorite holidays, Christmas. I’m in awe over all the twinkling Christmas lights, decorations, and the Christmas spirit. I feel like Christmas puts almost everyone in a good mood. After all, it’s a time for friends and family, a time to be thankful, and grateful.

Every year I crochet fun little Christmas ornaments for our tree. This year I thought I would share a pattern that my mom taught me almost 35 years ago when I was first learning to crochet. These crochet Christmas ornaments in the shape of a snowflake are super simple to make and work up in about 10 minutes. So go ahead and grab your favorite yarn, a crochet hook, turn on your favorite tv program and let’s make something fun!
