When I was a child we ALWAYS made ornaments for our Christmas tree. I know what you’re thinking that’s sounds very Hallmark movie of us! Actually, I think my mom wanted to keep me and my sister busy during the Christmas break! But this simple activity made me absolutely love making custom Christmas ornaments.

This year I have been crocheting a TON of beanies. So, for this year’s ornament I thought how cute would a crochet mini beanie ornament be? Turns out SUPER cute! I absolutely love this little ornament and giggled the entire time I made it (I’m a total geek). This little crochet mini beanie ornament can be made in one color or you can make it fancy and make it with two!

Make Pom Pom:

Next, wrap yarn around the prongs of a dinner fork. You want to make sure to go around several times or your pom pom won’t be very full.

Then wrap a piece of embroidery thread around the middle of the yarn.

Next, slide the yarn off the fork and pull the embroidery thread tight. Tie a knot in the thread and then wrap it around the other side of the pom pom and tie another knot.

Then carefully cut the loops of the yarn with sharp little scissors.

Now, after you have cut all the loops your pom pom will look wonky.

To make your pom pom look like a ball carefully trim the yarn around the entire pom pom.

Next, once your pom pom looks good use embroidery thread and sew it to the top of your hat.

Cut a piece of yarn 4 inches long. Then take your yarn needle and pull the yarn through the back of your crochet mini beanie ornament. Tie a knot in the yarn and you have your hanger!

And…. the super cute crochet mini beanie ornament is done!

So, what do you think? Isn’t this mini beanie super easy to make? This little ornament is super cute on the tree and also doubles as a nifty gift decoration!
