Easy Crochet Snowflake Pattern

Here is the pattern for the snowflakes that I put on the crochet stocking.

You could also use them for Christmas tree ornaments.  Or put them on a gift, or as a last minute gift themselves.  They are pretty easy and quick once you have made a few.

 I have to say, this is the first time I have ever written out a pattern and posted it.  I feel a little sick to my stomach about it.  If you try it and it doesn't work please let me know. I will try to fix it or answer any questions you have.  This is for you Terry.:) And of course anyone else who feels like trying it.

You will need:

• size 3 crochet thread (I used a glitter white color, Red Heart)
• #5 (1.90 mm) metal crochet hook

Round 1

Chain 2, sc 8 into 2nd chain from hook.  Join with slst into first sc.

Round 2
work 2 dc into each stitch (16 dc) join with slst.

Round 3
Chain 7 *skip next dc, work 2 dc into next stitch chain 4** repeat from *to **.  Work one double crochet in stitch next to the 7 chains join with a slst into 3rd chain. (this makes 8, dc 4chain loops.)

Round 4 
*sc 3 into chain 4 space, chain 3, sc 3 into same 4 chain space** repeat from *to**.  Join with slst into first sc.  Leave the tails long to make a loop to hang on tree or to tie onto stocking.

Abbreviations:
dc-double crochet
slst-slip stich
sc-single crochet

You may want to iron and starch them if you are going to put them on a tree.

I hope you get a chance to try them. 

 Thanks for stoppin' by and hangin' out.
