Crochet christmas trees

I mentioned before that Mum over Mum's Simply Living blog
was crocheting Christmas trees during the countdown to Christmas in a moment of madness I decided to join in and although I started a few days late I did make a start as you can see below


I then didn't make any for a few days and that must have been fate because last Saturday when I popped into chelmsford market I spied some lovely green wool in a much more Christmassy colour. I bought some of the wool and got cracking on making Christmas trees.


As you can see I'm still not quite on one a day but since taking this photo I have made two more, my only dilemma now is do I continue to make more trees or do I make some stars to go with them in the lovely red wool that I bought too.


As you can see I didn't only buy wool on my trip to the market!!
Here is a link to the granny tree tutorial that I am using if you would like to make some yourself.

  1. This is a fun idea - red stars would look very pretty too.

    Great trees. I used this tutorial the other week and made a garland of trees and stars for my home this year to add a homemade touch to my decorations.

  4. Stars would look great and what about holly? I'm keeping track with a tree for each day so far and I think I'll do a bigger tree for the 25th with possibly a star on the top. I might make it a red star!!!
    Love from Mum
