Pattern Basic Points

The Christmas tree is worked in a continuous spiral; a stitch marker is needed to mark the beginning of each round.
Structure is achieved through regular increases and special attention to working in the back loops for defining garland layers.
Chains are added at the end to mimic garland looping across the tree’s layers.
All stitches are worked as half double crochet to create a dense, textured surface.
Chain loops are added after tree construction, using the exposed back loops from specified rounds.

Special Notes

To achieve a tree that stands upright, stuff lightly and evenly, especially toward the base.
When working rounds in back loops only (BLO), this leaves front loops available for adding decorative chains in finishing steps.
Use an eye-catching color for the garland/chain overlay to make the tree festive.
When adding chains, consistently skip 2 front loops between each chain to maintain even spacing.
As rounds are worked in a spiral, the starting point of rounds will slant slightly; adjust joining of garland chain accordingly.

Skill Level

This pattern is suitable for beginners, provided you are comfortable with half double crochet, increasing, decreasing, color changes, and working in spirals.

DK or light worsted weight yarn in green for the tree and a contrasting color (such as pink, gold, or silver) for garlands.

Large-eye tapestry needle (fog needle)

Scissors

Measurements / Sizing

The finished tree measures approximately 12–15 cm in height, depending on yarn and stuffing.

Final height is approx. 12–15 cm (adjusts with yarn, hook, and tension).
