Crochet Christmas tree. Master class

You need to prepare for the New Year holidays in advance. For me, preparing for Christmas is, first of all, gifts. And here I pay tribute to traditions - what could be more appropriate than an elegant Christmas tree? Crocheted Christmas tree - a stylish gift, with mood and zest.

This description for a crochet Christmas tree is only the basis for your idea. Increases and decreases may vary depending on how tall and small the tree is needed. I don’t pretend to the originality and perfection of the scheme, just in case someone needs such an idea. We start from the bottom of the tree. We knit 25 air loops into an amigurumi ring (Fig. 1), close the ring and knit a lifting loop.

1st row: knit 3 single crochets and make an increase stitch in the third loop, repeat 3 (+1) until the end of the circle, close the row. This is followed by a lifting loop, as in each completed row. 2nd row: 4 single crochets and an increase in the 4th loop 4 (+1). 3rd row: 5(+1) 4th row: 6(+1) 5th row: 7(+1) Knit rows from 6th to 15th no increases.

Next, we begin to gradually narrow the pear-shaped Christmas tree. 16th row: 20(-1), there should be 3 decreases in a row. Row 17: 10(-1), 19(-1), 19(-1). It turns out that the places of decreases in the ranks will be in a checkerboard pattern. This technique eliminates distortions and obvious holes in the knitted fabric. 18th row: 18(-1) 19th row: 9(-1), 17(-1), 17(-1) 20th row: 16(-1)** Rows 21-25** without decreases. 26th row: 15(-1) 27th and 28th row without decreases. 29 row: 14(-1) 30 and 31 rows without decreases. 32nd row: 13(-1) 33rd and 34th rows without decreases. 35th row: 12(-1) 36th and 37th rows without decreases. 38 row: 11(-1) 39 and 40 rows without decreases. 41 row: 10(-1) 42 and 43 rows without decreases. Row 44: 9(-1)

Next, make decreases according to your instincts and desires. Leave a hole into which you can insert a star or ball. Through this hole you can fill the Christmas tree with filler. The base-stand is at your discretion and imagination, the same applies to the decor. Create!
