Ever thought to crochet a ring?  Here are some interesting crocheted rings:

Another kind of ring can be seen here:

and includes a link to a tutorial.  Quite helpful.

And, if you have loooong fingers (and I do, but you might need them longer than mine), you might enjoy making one of these beauties:

You can download the patterns there for free.

A very simple ring here can be embellished, perhaps, with a small pretty button or bead:

Plus, if you want to crochet with wire, you can google and find several more ring patterns.  Have fun!

  1. Hi Thanks for the links. Someone in my needlework class crocheted a jacket for another member. She used very interesting buttons and I offered to make a ring to match if the owner of jacket would buy some of the buttons. She forgot about the offer but meanwhile I had copied a ring pattern from Jewelry with a Hook by Terry Taylor. Ring is on front cover. I may try all the rings.

Christmas Poinsettia Candle Cozy Crochet Pattern – A Pretty Little Holiday Make for Battery Tea Lights

If you love adding little handmade touches to your Christmas decorating, this Christmas Poinsettia Candle Cozy from CraftBits is such a pretty project. It is festive, eye-catching, and just the sort of small crochet make that can add a lovely pop of holiday color to a table, shelf, or mantel.

What I really like about this pattern is that it feels special without being overwhelming. It is a sweet seasonal project for dressing up battery tea lights, and the poinsettia design gives it that classic Christmas look that never gets old. It would be gorgeous as part of a holiday centerpiece or made up in a few sets for decorating around the house.

You might have seen this one featured on Crochet.CraftGossip before, and it is easy to see why it is worth another look. It is cheerful, decorative, and a lovely way to bring a little crochet into your Christmas styling without taking on a huge project.

If you are in the mood for a small festive make, this one is definitely a pretty pick.
