Gingerbread Tree & Christmas Tree Ornaments is an original crochet pattern by June Gilbank.

Chunky and flat, just like the edible cookie version, the Gingerbread Tree ornament is a perfect blank canvas for decorating with beads, embroidery, or whatever crafty ‘icing’ you like. Or make the Christmas Tree version in green or white with a brown trunk.

Both versions are crocheted amigurumi-style (in a continuous spiral) from only 10 yds of yarn with no sewing, so the pattern works up quickly with minimal finishing!

Yarn: Small quantity of worsted weight yarn in a gingerbread shade, or green (or white) and brown

Hook: US E / 3.5mm

Size: Approx 3.5” (9cm) tall. (Your gauge and yarn choice will affect the finished size slightly.)

Note: This pattern is Donationware - the pattern is available for free, but if you like it please consider sending me a donation to show your appreciation. The PDF version, available for any size donation, is formatted for easy viewing and printing, and includes bonuses (a 2-page guide to the embroidery and embellishments used on the sample trees, and additional info and left-handed photos). The complete pattern is available to view in full (for no charge) from the linked page.
