Make your own Crochet Baubles with this Free pattern for beautiful Christmas decorations. 
I made my decorative baubles in cotton sportsweight yarn, but the pattern is suitable for light DK yarn as well. Just match your hook to your yarn:)

Materials
Scheepjes Cotton 8 or Scheepjes Catona – small amounts in assorted colours
Crochet hook - 2.5mm
Christmas ball - 3” in circumference (use some from last years decorations!)
Yarn needle to sew your ball together

You could use any 4ply/sport weight cotton yarn If you use a DK weight yarn (and a 3.5mm hook) you will probably eliminate the last 2 rows in order for crochet piece to fit.

Pattern gives instructions to make 2 pieces (halves) which you sew together over your ball.

A free version of the US crochet pattern is available on my blog.
