Crochet Cute Little Snowflake Christmas Deco or Ornament
Hello My Crochet Friends!
We continue our lace crochet journey with delicate Christmas decorations made from Violka yarn. Today, I’m excited to share a quick and easy pattern for a gentle crocheted snowflake.
This snowflake boasts a soft, romantic design that feels both delicate and ethereal. Like the previous festive creations, it’s perfect for adding a touch of holiday charm. The snowflake works beautifully as a Christmas decoration, whether on your tree, an advent wreath, or as part of a festive arrangement.
This pattern is designed for beginners who are ready to try something slightly more advanced. The instructions are straightforward and involve only four rounds, making it a quick project. An added bonus is that crocheting snowflakes requires just a small amount of yarn. I used my favorite Violka yarn for this piece.
To make this pattern accessible to all, I’ve also prepared a detailed video tutorial that walks you through the entire process, making it easy even for less experienced crafters.
I hope this snowflake will add a magical wintery touch to your holiday celebrations and bring warmth and joy to your festive moments.
Have fun!

From Soft to Stiff: Elevate Your Crochet with Perfect Starching
1. Prepare the Starch Mixture
- Mix liquid starch or make your own by boiling 1 part cornstarch with 2 parts water. Let it cool to room temperature. Adjust the starch-to-water ratio depending on the desired stiffness.
2. Soak the Item
- Submerge your crocheted item in the starch solution. Ensure it’s fully saturated. Gently squeeze out the excess liquid, being careful not to wring or distort the shape.
3. Shape the Item
- Lay the item on a flat, covered surface (like a foam board or a towel). Stretch and pin it into the desired shape, ensuring all edges and details are properly defined.
4. Let it Dry
- Allow the item to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Depending on the thickness of the material, this might take several hours to overnight.
5. Finish
- Once dry and stiff, carefully remove any pins and check the shape. Your item is now ready to use or display!
If you need extra stiffness, you can repeat the process or apply a commercial spray starch.
The Snowflakes also makes a lovely small decoration for the Christmas tree, a gift embellishment, or an ornament for a card or New Year’s greeting.
I hope you’ve enjoyed making this free CROCHET CUTE LITTLE SNOWFLAKE crochet pattern.
