Crochet Snowflake Large

  

Crochet Snowflake (Large Aprox 13cm)

Size 5.5 Hook     

DK Yarn Two Strands Worked Together 

I'm using King Cole Glitz - Diamond White

How I make a Large Crochet Snowflake 

I Like to start with a Magic Circle 

(or you can use a 4 or 5 Chain start slip stitched together to create a circle)

Either Or is Fine

Make First Chain of Magic Circle tight to start off

Round One

Chain five (this represents 1 Treble and 2 Chains)

*Into the Circle make one Treble then Two Chains*

Next

Repeat from * to * Four more times pull your Magic Circle tight from centre.

Then slip stitch to 3rd chain of the five Chains at beginning of round.

(Round one should have 6 Trebles and 6 Two Chain Spaces as pic above)

Round 2

Slip stitch into first two chain space

Chain four (this creates the first stitch)

Into same two chain space Work three more Trebles then end with two chains.

*Into next two chain space work

Four Trebles end with Two Chains*

Repeat from  * to * 4 more times into remaining 4 two chain spaces.

Finish round with slip stitch into 3rd chain from beginning of round.

(You will now have 6 Four Treble clusters and 6 Two Chain spaces as pic above)

Round 3

Slip stitch into top of 2nd  and 3rd treble and then

*Slip stitch into two chain space.

Work into 2 chain space to create snowflake points:

Four Chains - then slip stitch back into two chain space 

Six Chains - then slip stitch back into two chain space 

Eight Chains - then slip stitch back into two chain space 

Six Chains - then slip stitch back  into two chain space 

Four Chains - then slip stitch back into two chain space

Slip stitch into top of 2nd and 3rd Treble of four treble Cluster (these slip stitches helps you travel from last two chain space to next two chain space)*

(You have now created one Snowflake point see pic below)

Repeat from * to * five times to complete Round Three (Six Snowflake 'points')

Slip Stitch to top of 2nd Treble to Complete Your Snowflake see below.

The Hanging Chain

Then Chain 22 (or desired Chain length) 

Slip Stitch back into 3rd Treble 

Cut Yarn

Phew! 

Now I've completed the instructions for the Small, Medium and Large Crochet Snowflake (which took far longer to write than it took to Make the Snowflakes!) 

Click here for Small Crochet Snowflake

And Click Here for The Medium Snowflake

Give them a go.
Let me know how you get on
Just thinking - would they good in different colours.....

I've just got a new Mini Camera stand for filming close work. I may try it out making the Small Snowflake. 

Would that be something you'd like to see?

Meanwhile, Enjoy your Stitching whatever form it takes.

A little looks back at my Stitching Projects this year.

Below a little Stitchery of possibly my Favourite Bird. The Black Bird.

I enjoyed Stitching this quite early on in the year.

A small throw I made for one of my Granddaughters.

It was a lovely soft & cwtchy make.

Wintering 

I've been having a slow & gentle start to 2025.

Just being instead of doing.

Slowing down enough to reset myself.

Enjoying lazy mornings watching the birds in our garden.

Afternoons slowly Stitching or not...

Lots of quiet Evenings sometimes watching TV.

Sometimes Listening to Music I'm sharing this link with you so you can Listen & Relax To Boy Wonder - A Song About My Grandson!

Stitching November 2025

Stitching for Christmas 

In November I focused on Stitching for Christmas.

Crochet Christmas Trees

I've really gone to town with these little beauties.

I experimented with different sizes from Half Trebles, Trebles and Double Trebles. It's been such fun. Especially as I can make one in about 30 minutes. 

My favourite were the Half Treble ones.

Mouse of the Month

Ta Da! Once again I've managed to finish a Mouse of the Month within it's alloted Month.

November in November 

November's Mouse of the Month was holding a firework with sparkles in the air.

BUT

November is My Birthday Month

SO

Changed it up so I now have a Birthday Cake & Gifts.

Crochet Scarfs

I have also Crochet more Granny Square Scarfs.

They make great Gift Ideas

Ten Granny Squares 

Joined Together

With 3 or 4 rounds added to finish them off

Christmas Hearts 

I almost forgot! I also Stitched some Christmas Hearts. 

This is one from the little collection of 

Christmas Stitching  I featured last month.

Really been enjoying my Christmas Stitching. Watch out for my December Stitching Adventures coming soon...

Stitches in October 2025

 Patchwork Quilting Applique & Crochet 

I'm feeling much more like myself this month. Had a pretty clear head and been able to get lots of Lovely Stitching done. 

Hand Stitching Machine Stitching & Crochet my my...

Machine Stitching 

Spent quite a bit of time Machine Stitching on my beloved Bernina this month. I've dived right back into The Winter Village 

I've machine stitched (Appliquéd) all the Branches Berries & Birds 🐦 on. 

I decided to not to free motion stitch them as the Applique pieces were mostly straight. So I slowly stitched around all the shapes. Turning my work slightly after every couple of machine stitches on the round Berries and Birds. That's when Needle Down & my machines Knee Lifter really show their worth.

Hand Stitching 

We've had some lovely Bright Days this month. In fact it's felt more like September than October, and with September being so wet for us here in South Wales I've felt September & October swapped places this year.

Anyway, as I said we've had some lovely Bright Days. Just perfect for me for Hand Stitching.

September Mouse of the Month 

My making of September's Mouse of the Month ran over in October...

October Mouse of the Month 

And Yay! I actually started and finished October's Mouse of the Month in October!

Christmas Hearts 

I've also Hand Stitched some pieces of fabric that are going to morph into Christmas Heart Hangings.

They are for my local W.I.'s Christmas Tree which will be displayed in Margam Park's Christmas Tree Festival.

Christmas Hearts

Crochet 

Looking at projects to make for Christmas I found a lovely Granny Square Scarf pic on Pinterest. Which gave me an idea.

I had a bag of Crochet Circles I had made a few years ago - the start of a Crochet Blanket. For some reason I didn't continue with it. And those Crochet Circles would make a perfect first few rounds for a bit of a different Granny Square to my usual ones.

A Lovely Scrap Busting Project 

So far I've made three of these Scarfs with number four a Work in Progress.

Crochet & Stitching September 25

Stitches in September 

A very short update this month.

This month has been challenging.

Of course no one can expect to keep going well all the time.

My head has been rather up and down. Migraine head. Unable to focus.

It's not nice.

But

I did have a few good days too. And have got some Stitching done. But nowhere near as much as normal for me.

Crochet 

I have started this Small Baby Blanket for my Neighbours new Grandson due in November.

Checking over this post I can see I've taken a picture of the above Blanket upside-down! And that pretty much sums up how my focus is at the moment!!

I also had plans to show how I Crochet this Project but they'll have to wait.

Stitching 

At the beginning of September whilst on holiday in Bulgaria I finished off Colly Bird no. 4.

It's a pattern by mmmcrafts.com

I have taken some videos of the making of my Colly Bird. But at the moment my heads not up to sorting that out.

Other than that it's been a pretty unproductive month for me Stitching wise.

I usually enjoy sharing my Stitching Plans for the next month with you all. But at the moment I can't focus or plan.

Joyofquilting 

I do try and live up to my name, so I'm ending with these.....

Butterflies

A few of the 100's of Red Admirals gathered outside my house this week.

Apparently they'll soon be flying to North Africa! 

It seems unbelievable that something so small and delicate looking could fly that far from the UK.

AND

Keeping it in the Family

A link to a song that's stuck in my head at the moment....

Satellite Park's

Little Victories

And that's what I'm focusing - Little Victories.

The link above takes you to that track of their Album Alpha Alpha on YouTube.

Stitched Robin 

While Camping this month I Hand Stitched a little Robin on a Holly Branch. 

Part of this year's Christmas Tree Festival project which my local W.I. are taking part in.  I've got a few more on the go, so you'll be seeing more over the next couple of months.

A nice little calming Hand Stitching Project easy to pick up in a spare few minutes.

Applique & Stitched

Mouse of the Month.

I've been playing catch up with these Mice this month. In the last few weeks I've stitched June, July & August. 

Jilly Mouse spent quite some time Relaxing in her Hammock in June.

July found Jilly down by the Beach enjoying her little Beach House making Sandcastles and keeping cool in her little dipping pool.

In August Jilly toasted marshmallows with her friend. 

Thought you might like to see the process of bringing Jilly to life.  From tracing the Pattern onto fabric, Hand Stitching, Applique, More Stitching.

These Little Stitched Mouse of the Month pieces have been such fun to make. So quick too. Mouse of the Month by Gillymakes.

This Month's Unexpected Project was a quilted Kindle Cover requested by my Granddaughter 

No pattern. I made a simple zipper Bag to fit.

Crochet Festival Blanket 

And the Star of the Month has to be this King Cole Festival Fever Crochet Blanket 

Such a Joy to Make

Of course I couldn't resist using some of the leftover yarn to Crochet some Festival Bunting.

And a multi coloured Bunting Bag to keep it in.

How I Make My Triangle Bunting 

I was thinking of sharing with you the instructions for my Triangle Bunting. 

Would that be something any of you would like to see? Let me know in the Comments below if you would.
