There are so many lovely crocheted Christmas ornaments out there. Snowflakes ❄️, baubles, stars ⭐️ and hearts ❤️
These baubles just got something extra. Golden caps. A nice detail, they are very happy about. 🥰 I guess a little gold and glitter, never hurt. ✨
A delightful December weekend to you! ♥️
P.s. Below is how it can be done 👇
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Find the bauble pattern on www.stonegnome.com. 🧶 After completing rounds 1-12, continue with the instructions below (instead of 'Final Round').
13) With colored yarn. Make waistcoat stitch decreases all the way (6)
Slst and cut the colored yarn. Pull the yarn through the loop. Secure ends, a little knot using the white and colored yarn should be fine.
Tug the loose ends into the bauble.
SWIPE NOTE. It is ok if there are gaps between the last round of stitches. Just make sure they are closed after the next round.

🧢 THE CAP 🧢
Use a 3-3.5 mm (US D3-E4 or steel 0-00) hook and golden yarn.
Attach the yarn by inserting the hook between the legs of the last waistcoat stitch (as if doing a new waistcoat stitch), yarn-over and pull through. This doesn’t count as a stitch.
To hide the loose end of the golden yarn, crochet around it for the next rounds.
Make 2 rounds of waistcoat stitches.
Slip stitch into next stitch, cut a long yarn end and pull through the last loop. Tighten the last slst.
➰ Create a loop for hanging the ornament. ➰
Attach a needle to the yarn end. Insert the needle into the next stitch and out in the middle of the cap.
While leaving most of the golden yarn to form a large loop, bring the needle back into the cap's center, and out at the bottom of the cap, then reinserting it right next to the initial point.
Tie a knot using the large loop and the short loose yarn end. Tuck the knot and the yarn end into the cap to hide it.
Voilà!
