Hi there! How’s your December been going? Anyone else feel a little ready for 2024? If only because I’ve got lots of fun ideas for but it needs to be January to start them 😀 But before that time comes, I have a few more patterns coming your way this month. And next up is the Cute Tree Amigurumi crochet pattern.
Now if this design looks familiar to you, then you’ve got a keen eye because it’s a variation on my Christmas Tree Applique pattern from 2014. This time of year that design happens to be one of the most popular patterns on my blog, along with my Squishy Tree Ami pattern. And due to both design’s popularity, I decided to do a little bit of a “mash up” of the 2 patterns for a new super design for this winter 😀
For the pattern and photos I only made one tree initially but I had such fun (and it worked up so fast) that I decided to make another. And then another. And once I got a few cute pictures I sent the sage and red ones off to my niblings (brother’s kiddos) and kept the lime green one for my sister. They make fun little gifts IMO. 😀
And I mean it when I say this pattern is easy. It’s worked in 2 pieces that have 2 sections to them – the Tree and the Stem. Once you get finish both pieces, you will seam them together with a simple sc through both pieces. Don’t forget to stuff them before you get all the way around. That’s all there is to the pattern. Now, the rest is totally up to you how you . I think some puffy paint or yarn scarps would make lovely ornaments or even adding a garland would add some really fun personality to the design.
Anyway, even though I’m a Halloween person, I have been having so much fun this winter/ holiday season. Between the Crystal Snowflakes Shawl and Susie Snowflake Bag, I am all ready for winter fashion shows (that I don’t take part in, but I’ll be warm and watch :D).

Notes
- You can purchase the easy to print version of this pattern for a fee in my Ravelry shop.
- Each Tree is created in 2 parts: the Body, which is worked from the widest point and decreased every other row until the point, and the Stem, which is added to the other side of the widest part of the Body. When both Trees are done then you sc a Border around the outside to secure the two pieces together.
- The ch 1 at the beginning of the rows does not count as a stitch.
- The stitch count at the end of the row counts both sc and sc2togs.
- Within the rows (the even numbered rows) don’t make the slip sts you use too tight, as you will be working back into them on the next row.
- For this pattern I used stash yarn. I believe the lime green is Bernat Super Value (but it’s really old, so I’m not positive) and the sage green is Vanna’s Choice. The red is also a stash yarn and I have no idea where I got it.
