Easy Crochet Ribbon Candy Christmas Ornament With Free Pattern


Decorate your Christmas tree with colorful old-fashioned candy ornaments. This easy crochet ribbon candy Christmas ornament free pattern and tutorial makes it simple to fill up your tree with yarn ornaments this year.

I like to make new Christmas ornaments for my tree each year. I guess it’s because my mom and I always had so much fun making Christmas tree ornaments together each year. We would let our creative minds wander and come up with a new theme every year. Sometimes the ornaments turned out golden, and sometimes they didn’t. But the memories? They always turned out great!

I love to crochet, so it’s natural for me to pull out my yarn stash this time of year when creativity hits. This year I decided to go old school thanks to inspiration from old-fashioned ribbon candy and Dolly Parton’s Hard Candy Christmas. What can I say? I can’t help but get a little nostalgic this time of year. I’m happy to share my creation with you today, along with a tutorial so you can make your own. Check out the simple and free crochet ribbon candy pattern and tutorial below!

Fold the strip over several times evenly to create 3 folds on each side. The width should be about 2 inches.

Using a yarn needle, thread a piece of yarn through the middle of the folds, tying off the ends. Leave a tail of yarn on the top end to tie and form a loop for hanging.

I’ve never seen a piece of flat ribbon candy, so let’s avoid that! After you’ve tied off and woven in the ends of the assembly yarn, use your fingers to fluff up the folds to resemble the wavy look of ribbon candy. That’s it!
