Introducing the Charming Crochet Medallion Motif! This delightful little openwork design is not only free, but it’s also incredibly easy and super quick to whip up – just 5 rounds and you’re done! Perfect for adding a touch of festive cheer to your Christmas decorations, these small lacy motifs are versatile and oh-so-cute!
Imagine using them as charming decorations on gift packages, or as lovely appliqués on your holiday crafts. You can even connect a bunch of them together to create a stunning larger piece that will surely dazzle everyone!
When it comes to colors, the possibilities are endless! Think classic reds and greens for a traditional Christmas vibe, or go for icy blues and whites for a winter wonderland feel. You could even mix and match vibrant hues to create a playful, whimsical look!
As for size, it depends on the thread and hook you choose. For reference, using cotton thread size 10 with a 2 mm crochet hook will give you a lovely 7.5 cm (3 inches) in diameter medallion. To make your crocheting journey even smoother, I’ve included a handy chart/diagram that makes following the pattern an absolute breeze.
Get ready to spread some joy with these charming motifs. Happy crocheting!
