Santa Belt Ornaments (as well as Elf Belt Ornaments) are easy crocheted ornaments to give your Christmas tree a handmade touch. This simple project takes less than an hour to make and can be great for Christmas gift giving.

Beginners to Advanced crocheters can create this pattern with the following techniques:
-Magic Circle
-Single Crochet
-Single Crochet Increase
-Half Double Crochet
-Slip Stitch
-Slip Knot and Chain
-Fasten Off

The pattern is written with U.S. crochet terms, complete with clear instructions and pictures to help you along the way. Santa Belt Ornament is crocheted around a three inch embroidery hoop. I suggest using a stitch marker or different color yarn to keep track of each round. Gauge is not particularly important, just be consistent with the tension you are using. And most importantly, have fun!
