Crochet Christmas Bell Ornament Pattern

Don’t you think Crocheted Christmas Bells are just so adorable displayed on Christmas Trees?

I personally love crochet bell ornaments and decided to design a cute and colorful one to display together with my crochet baubles and mini crochet ornaments this year.

These crochet bells are quite simple to make. You could make them in one solid color since they are quite textured, but for this small crochet bells, I love the multi-colored look, so I combined 5 colors, one for each round.

Crochet bells are not only meant to be displayed on Christmas Trees. There are several ways you could display your crocheted bell ornaments, here are a few examples (please see photos):

  1. Display on a Christmas Tree, the traditional way,
  2. Display on a branch,
  3. Or paint yourself a Christmas Tree on painted Canvas.

Notes
- You can use any type of yarn as long as you have a corresponding crochet hook size (check yarn label for recommendations).

  • Numbers at the end of each step (in brackets) indicate the number of final stitches in that step.

  • For this pattern, I tended to crochet between the dc post stitches, as opposed to into the “v” of the dc sts.

  • Ch 2 sts at the beginning of a round count as a dc st.

  • Please note that I use US crochet terms.
