This sweet little number is a product of Planet June and the pattern can be purchased here.  Use some broken jewelry to create the teeny garland.

This is a completely different looking tiny tree.  Think of the things you could do to embellish this one!  Buy a strand of those tiny plastic ‘brass’ ornaments and tie them on.  Or add some beads.  Don’t limit yourself to white.  What about a tie-dye Christmas tree?  A pink one?  Your favorite color?  Make it your own!  The pattern is free right here.

I think these are adorable as shown, but…..Why not work them up in a variegated or shaded green yarn to get more dimension?  I think that would be perfect!  These are super simple and can be embellished as I’ve stated for the others here.  I also think they would be uniquely charming worked up in the Christmas yarn that is off white with a gold metallic thread in it.  This is another, very adaptable pattern. Get it here.  These are only about 3.5 inches high.

Rounding out My Top Five today is this clever little Crocodile Stitch Tree that will delight everyone who sees it.  Work it up in thread or yarn.  Make it any color.  Embellished or not, this one is a winner!  You can get the pattern here.

This is My Top Five.  Do you have any tiny crocheted Christmas trees to share with us?  Please post a link in the Comment Section below so we can all see.

  1. These are Sooooo Great! Maybe somebody out there can help… Someone put in a “L©©King for pattern request”. It’s a Crocheted, partially sewed, Holiday Mouse Air freshener cover. (Free) I looked, but everything is all on ETSY. So, I THO’T that I could help in some way. Other than that, these trees look like they could slide over air-fresheners too! Thanks, Jd! Great patterns!

Shock Wave Free Crochet Lap Blanket Pattern

This Free Shock Wave Crochet Lap Blanket Pattern from Mary Maxim looks like one of those wonderfully satisfying projects that gives big cozy payoff without fiddly detail. Mary Maxim lists it as a free download, designed as a crochet afghan/lap blanket, with a finished size of 45 x 50 inches.

What immediately stands out is the yarn choice. The pattern is made with Bernat Blanket Extra Thick, using 5 skeins, and calls for a U.S. U/50 (25 mm) crochet hook. That is gloriously chunky territory, which usually means fast progress and lots of squishy texture. If you are in the mood for a project that feels substantial in your hands and grows quickly row by row, this one definitely has that appeal.

Mary Maxim describes the blanket as having a beautifully textured, plush, soft finish and suggests it as a project for home décor or gifting. Based on the materials and oversized hook alone, that sounds about right. This feels like the sort of blanket you make for curling up on the couch, draping over a chair, or giving as a practical handmade gift that will actually get used instead of folded away “for best.”

The pattern is marked Easy, and the listed stitch requirements are straightforward: chain, repeat, double crochet, single crochet, and slip stitch. That makes it sound approachable for confident beginners and very appealing for anyone who wants a relaxing crochet project without too much counting drama.

I also think the lap blanket size is a smart one. Not every crochet blanket needs to become a giant commitment that takes over the lounge room and your will to live. A 45 x 50 inch blanket is a useful, manageable size for gifting, for wheelchairs or reading nooks, or just for keeping on hand for chilly evenings. That practicality gives this pattern extra appeal. The usability point is my own take based on the finished dimensions Mary Maxim provides.

At the moment, the pattern page shows no reviews, so there is not much customer feedback to go on yet. Still, if you enjoy easy crochet blanket patterns, super chunky crochet throws, or quick lap blanket projects, this one looks like a solid freebie to save.

My overall take? This looks like a fast, cozy, beginner-friendly crochet blanket pattern with plenty of texture and instant-gratification energy. Very much the sort of project you start because it looks easy, then keep going because the yarn feels ridiculously soft.
