Christmas Tree Beach Balls

Christmas Tree Beach Balls

December 5, 2018

Let’s celebrate the holidays with making fun Christmas tree ornaments! My first project is a little funny because it’s trying to add summer vibes to Christmas tree and crochet cute Christmas Tree Beach Balls.

My plan was to make a red Christmas tree ball with white thin stripes and I found the cute Red Heart Scrubby Sparkle yarn for it. It’s meant for dishcloths and scrubbies mostly but I think the sparkly textured yarn makes fun and festive Christmas tree ornaments as well.

And since the 1-stitch thin white stripe didn’t show well between the red wide stripes I decided to make equal wide stripes with both colors. And that’s how this ornament became a Christmas Tree Beach Ball. Follow my video tutorial and written pattern to make your own ornaments.
