Ugly Sweater Ornament
This Ugly Christmas Sweater Ornament is a fun little make that you can use as a Christmas tree decoration, or as a gift tag, or to make garlands, magnets, keychains, etc.
MATERIALS
2.5-mm (C/2 USA, 12 UK) Hook
3.5-mm (E/4 USA, 9 UK) Hook
Sport Weight Yarn (Fine 2) in two (or more) contrasting colors. I used Schachenmayr Catania
Ten Stitch Markers
Tapestry Needle
Scissors
SIZE & GAUGE
This pattern is too small to accurately determine the gauge.
However, when using the indicated yarns and hooks, you should get a sweater of 2.25” (6 cm) by 4” (10 cm).
How Much Yarn Will You Need?
For this pattern, you will need approximately 18-20 yards (15-17.5 m) of yarn, of which about 8-9 yds in color 1 and 11-12 yds in color 2.
Yarn Alternatives
For your Ugly Christmas Sweater Crochet Ornament, you can use really any yarn you have in your stash. And actually, this is the perfect pattern to use up some scrap yarn. All you have to do is to choose the appropriate hooks for the yarn you have.
For example, using DK yarn and 3.5 mm and 4.0 mm crochet hooks will result in a sweater of ~3” (7.5 cm) by 5” (13 cm).
Construction
This pattern is written in three sections: the collar, the body, and the sleeves. The sweater is crocheted top-down mostly using V-stitches.
