Today I’d like to continue the Christmas theme and share a short and sweet pattern of Christmas Candle made for crochet newbies. Pick up your hooks and yarn, make a cup of delicious cappuccino and before you finish it, you will have a neat DIY candle. There are just 4 stitches used in this pattern, a hook of your choice (mine was 4.5 mm) and leftover yarn. Warning: the candle gets really hot as you get to the end of the pattern, don’t burn your fingers 😉

Crochet materials and tools:

<> Crochet hook 4.5 mm

<> Red Heart, Super Saver (4) –100% acrylic, 198 grams – 333 m per skein.

Every year I crochet some small Christmas Ornament to give to many of the employees I work with and friends. I give them out when we come back from our Thanksgiving break. Will definitely want to make this for Christmas 2024.
