How to Crochet Christmas Tree (Multifunctional & Cute)
I am here with another Christmas tree tutorial, this time it ends up with a multi-functional and even cuter tiered tree! So, learn how to crochet this Christmas tree with an easy, stitch-by-stitch tutorial for beginners. With the zero stuffing option, you can use this Christmas as a baby hat, pouch, key case, and even a Christmas ornament.
This Christmas tree is finished with the same ruffled leafy edging, white snow border and different shades of green. For uniqueness, the tutor has crocheted it in a small height but with wide leaves. There is also the traditional and classic star top that really looks nice. So, crochet one today.

Luckily, the whole Christmas tree pattern is worked as a single piece, starting from the stem up to the top, perfectly using the color changes and surface stitching. You can also fill in the stuffing, though for a standing Christmas tree, and also use colorful beads or a crochet bow that will make it gift-ready.

Quick Summary & Skill Level: Intermediate. You will crochet the base of this Christmas tree from a length of chains and join the ends using a slip stitch. Then work around crocheting the stem to the top using color changes as you go for each part.
You will switch the color a total of four times. Then work the stitches in FLO and BLO using the surface stitching (surely needs removal of the hook).
