Amigurumi Crochet Mini Christmas Tree Ornament Free Pattern:

Christmas Tree (using green yarn)
R1: ch 2, 5 sc in 2^nd ch from hook (5 sts) (you can use the magic ring if you prefer, as it won’t make a difference in the end. In that case, you will make a magic ring and make 5 sc in the magic ring. Watch this video to see how to start crocheting in the round using the “ch 2 method”.)
R2: *inc 1* rep 5 times (10 sts)
R3: sc in all 10 sts (10 sts)
R4: *sc 1, inc* rep 5 times (15 sts)
R5: sc in all 15 sts (15 sts)
R6: *sc 2, inc* rep 5 times (20 sts)
R7: sc in all 20 sts (20 sts)
R8: in BLO (back loops only) *Sc 3, inc* rep 5 times (25 sts) (This is the only round you will crochet in the back loops only until R13. We will use the back loops later to create the trim on the tree.)
R9: sc in all 25 sts (25 sts)
R10: *sc 4, inc* rep 5 times (30 sts)
R11: sc in all 30 sts (30 sts)
R12: *sc 5, inc* rep 5 times (35 sts)
R13: in BLO Sc in all 35 sts (35 sts) (This is the last round you will crochet in the BLO.)
R14: *sc 6, inc* rep 5 times (40 sts)
R15: sc in all 40 sts (40 sts)
R16: *sc 7, inc* rep 5 times (45 sts)
R17: sc in all 45 sts (45 sts)
Finish off. No need to leave a long tail.

Christmas Tree Trim (using green yarn)
Holding the tree upside down, insert your hook into the first front loop stitch from R7 of the tree. Make a sl st to secure the yarn. *sl st 1, make 3 sc in the next front loop, sl st 1* rep 6 times, sl st 1, make 3 sc in the last front loop st.

Finish off neatly using the invisible finish technique 

Still holding your tree upside down, insert your hook into the first front loop stitch from R12 of the tree. Make a sl st to secure the yarn. *sl st 1, make 3 sc in the next front loop, sl st 1* rep 11 times, sl st 1, make 3 sc in the last front loop st

Finish off neatly using the invisible finish technique 
Still holding your tree upside down, insert your hook into the first front loop stitch of R17 of the tree. Make a sl st to secure the yarn. *sl st 1, make 3 sc in the next front loop, sl st 1* rep 15 times.

Finish off neatly using the invisible finish technique. Weave all the loose ends into the inside of the Christmas tree to hide them.

Adding the Face
Insert your 7.5mm safety eyes between R15 & 16 of tree, 7 sts apart (Hint: insert the 1st eye. Count 7 sts from the hole where you inserted the 1st eye and insert the 2nd eye. See pic. #5). Embroider a small smile about 2 sts wide centered between the eyes using black embroidery floss. 

Christmas Tree Bottom (using green yarn)
R1: ch 2, 6 sc in 2^nd ch from hook (6 sts)
R2: *inc * rep 6 times (12 sts)
R3: *sc 1, inc* rep 6 times (18 sts)
R4: *sc 2, inc* rep 6 times (24 sts)
R5: *sc 3, inc* rep 6 times (30 sts)
R6: *sc 4, inc* rep 6 times (36 sts)
R7: *sc 3, inc* rep 9 times (45 sts)
Finish off leaving a very long tail.
Cut a piece of cardboard the same size as the bottom piece and set aside.

We will now join the bottom and top of the tree by sewing them together. Going through both loops of the bottom piece and the back loops of the top, whipstitch them together. They should align perfectly since there are 45 sts around on both the top and bottom pieces. Start to stuff the tree as you close it up. In order to make the bottom of the tree nice and flat, we will now add the piece of cardboard we cut out and place it on top of the stuffing about halfway around (see the last image in pic. #8). Keep stuffing the tree (underneath the cardboard piece) until it’s all closed up.

Finish off neatly using the invisible finish technique and weave in your ends.

Trunk (using brown yarn)
R1: ch 2, 6 sc in 2^nd ch from hook (6 sts)
R2: *inc * rep 6 times (12 sts)
R3: *sc 1, inc* rep 6 times (18 sts)
R4: *sc 2, inc* rep 6 times (24 sts)
R5: in BLO *sc 2, dec* rep 6 times (18 sts) (This is the only round you will crochet in the BLO.)
R6: *sc 2, inc* rep 6 times (24 sts) (If you feel like your stump is too short, simply add an extra round.)
Finish off leaving long tail for sewing.

Like we did for the tree, add a circle of cardboard inside the bottom of the trunk. This will give it a flat bottom and help add stability so that your tree can stand up on its own.

Stuff lightly and sew to the bottom of the tree.

Star (using gold yarn)
R1: Ch 6, in the 2^nd ch from the hook make 1 sl st, then ch 2, then make 1 more sl st in the same stitch, in each of the next 4 chs make *1 sl st, ch 2, 1 sl st* rep 4 times. You should have 5 points by the end of the chain.

Finish off leaving a long tail for sewing. Bring the two ends together to create a star shape and secure them together with a few stitches.Now sew the star to the top round of the tree. Weave in all ends.

Adding the Pom Pom Ornaments
I used premade pom poms in assorted colors that I bought from Hobby Lobby for my ornaments. The ones I bought were 0.28 in (7mm).

I glued mine to the tree using clear gel tacky glue. You could also use a hot glue gun or fabric glue like “Speed-Sew”. There’s no particular order you have to attach them in, just as many or as few as you like, spaced to your liking. Side and back ,views of where I placed my pom poms.

Feel free to get creative with your decorations! You could use ribbons, mini bows, mini bells, or other small things to decorate your tree with.

Congratulations !!!

More Amigurumi Christmas Tree Ideas:

Finished size: 13 cm

What you’ll need:

• 3 mm hook
• Small amounts 8 ply/DK cotton yarn. I’ve used various brands from my stash but a stiffer cotton works better than a soft cotton for these.
• Aprox 13g for the tree
• Aprox 3 g each in 6 different colours for the baubles
• Yarn needle

Tip:  You can use any weight yarn for these but they will turn out a different size.  Use a hook smaller than you normally would for your yarn so that your work is nice and firm.

Abbreviations:

ch –               chain
sc (dc) –      single crochet (double crochet)
hdc (htr) – half double crochet (half treble)
ss –              slip stitch

Amigurumi Ribbon Christmas Tree Free Pattern

Tree – Make 1

Foundation row: Ch 182

Row 1:  Hdc (htr) into 3rd ch from hook, hdc (htr) up to last ch, 5 hdc (htr) into last ch
Row 2: Turn work upside down and work into bottom loop of ch, hdc (htr) up to last st, 4 hdc (htr) into last st. Join with a ss into top of beginning ch-2.  Fasten off and weave ends in.

Baubles – make 6

Worked in spiral rounds
Start:  Leaving a long tail (about an arms length) to be used for stuffing later, make a magic circle
Round 1:  working into ring, ch 1 (not counted as a st), 6 sc (dc)
Round 2:  2 sc (dc) into each st (12 sc/dc)
Round 3:  12 sc (dc)
Round 4:  * skip one st, sc (dc) into next st.  Repeat from * 5 more times, stopping half way to insert stuffing (roll long yarn tail into a rough ball shape and squish into half closed ball.  Use the blunt end of your hook to help push it all in before you finish closing).  Join with a ss.

Fasten off and bury yarn end back up through centre of ball.  Clip closely.

Assembly:

Step 1:  Lay your tree piece out on a flat surface and fold end back aprox 8.5 cm

Step 2:  Keep folding up, making each fold slightly shorter than the last until it looks something like this

Step 3:  Place your first bauble at the base of your tree and continue up, placing baubles between 2 layers of each fold (see pic). You’ll probably have to fiddle a bit to get your folds looking right (and will need to fiddle even more when you start sewing in a minute)

When you’re happy with your tree shape, thread your needle with a length of yarn aprox 40 cm, using the colour of your choice (this will also become the hanging loop)

Step 4:  Starting with the bottom bauble, secure your thread with a couple of small stitches in the centre top of the bauble (you won’t see this as this side will rest up against the bottom of the tree)

Step 5:  Take your needle up through the first layers, pick up your next bauble and run needle up through the centre and then through the next set of layers.

Continue joining together this way until all baubles are attached.

Step 6:  Give the tail end a little tug to tighten (don’t pull too hard or you’ll squish your baubles out of shape).

Step 7:  Make a hanging loop with the remaining yarn by going back down through the centre of the top bauble and make a few small stitches into the bottom of the bauble and the top layer of the tree to secure.

Give your tree a little ‘foof’ and hang for everyone to admire.
