CROCHET SPARKLING SNOWFLAKE OR MAGICAL BALL FOR FESTIVE MOMENTS
1) A ch1 at beg of the row DOESN'T count as a stitch
2) I recommend starting with a magic circle. We will crochet in closed rounds, always ending the row with a slip st
3) Magic ring = the starting point for crocheting in a spiral. Use which ever method you prefer.
4) Size of the SNOWFLAKE: width: 11 cm Size may vary depending on the crochet style and yarn tension.
The finished size will depend on what yarn you use, as well as your tension and hook
5) You can make the SNOWFLAKE bigger with a thicker yarn or a larger hook size.

- Attach the yarn to the top of Snowflake A.
- Crochet 12 chain stitches and a single crochet into the next peak, continue crocheting 12 chain stitches and a single crochet into the next peak.
- Crochet around the entire snowflake in this manner, always crocheting 12 chain stitches between the peaks of the snowflake.
- IMPORTANT: Do not cut the yarn; you will continue crocheting with it.
- Place both snowflakes on the Christmas ornament.
- Using the tight stitches, move to the center of the chain.
- Crochet 6 chain stitches and a single crochet into the peak on Snowflake B, 6 chain stitches and a single crochet into the center of the next chain (i.e., into the 6th chain stitch out of 12).
- Repeat: 6 chain stitches and a single crochet into the next peak on Snowflake B, 6 chain stitches and a single crochet into the center of the next chain (i.e., into the 6th chain stitch out of 12).
- Continue in this manner to join both snowflakes together.
- Finish with an invisible stitch into the first single crochet.
