Tree base
Start with brown.
R1. 8 sc in MR (8)
R2. 8 inc (12)
R3. (sc,inc)x8 (24)
R4. (11sc, 3sc in one st)x2 (28)
Cut the yarn, FO.
Assembly
1. Place the base piece at the bottom of the tree.
2. Using white yarn, join at the point where R11 ended, making a slst through both layers (pic1).
3. Continue crocheting around, working (sc,hdc) through both layers, alternating stitches until the hole is fully closed. You should have 28 stitches at the end of the round.
Note: Don’t forget to add stuffing if needed before closing. But keep the bottom of the tree nice and flat.
Cut the white yarn, FO. Tie off the ends with a secure knot, and tuck them inside the tree (pics 2-3).
Tinsel
Take the white yarn and attach it with a slst to the first front loop of R10 (pic 1). Continue crocheting around, working (sc,hdc) to the end of the round.
You should end up with 11 repeats and one stitch left. Make sc in that last stitch.
Cut the yarn, tie the ends in a knot, and hide them inside the tree.
Repeat the same in R8 (pic 3).
Take the white yarn and attach it with a slst to the first front loop of R4.
Continue crocheting sc around until the end of the round, (not too right)(pic 4).
Feel free to decorate the tree however you like.
Use any color for the tinsel and enjoy the process.
