I love Christmas Crochet Baubles. I hope you do too! If yes, then you will love this free crochet Christmas baubles pattern as it is easy and quick to follow.

Previously I was used to store-bought Christmas baubles but recently I started thinking of making my own crochet baubles. I love that I can customize and use colors as I desire to march my other Christmas decorations instead of having to go with what someone else has chosen for me.

I believe that in the long run it is cost-effective and safe to use Christmas Crochet Baubles Ornaments There is no ornament breakage or no more shopping every year. Crochet Baubles are also easier and safer to decorate the Christmas tree with the grandchildren as I mostly use foam ornaments.

Yarn

I used Big Twist and KnitPick’s Brava to make these lace crochet baubles. These are leftover yarns I had used to make other projects and since the ornaments do not take too much yarn, I decided to use the yarn.
