15 Free Crochet Ornament Patterns

With the holidays coming up, you’ll want to warm up your crochet hands and fingers and get ready to make things! Start with one or more of these adorable free Christmas ornament crochet patterns to decorate your tree or give as gifts!

For me, there is something so warm about crocheted items. Ornaments on the tree made in this fashion are no exception. They almost look vintage and they make your tree look truly one-of-a-kind. I looked all over online to pick out some of the best crocheted ornaments out there and let me tell you, it was a hard choice. These are my favorites of the ones I came across and since they are such small projects, they can often be done with leftover yarn you have from bigger projects and in no time at all so make a few for gifts as well! Here are 15 free crochet ornament patterns for you to enjoy!
