This Windowpane Christmas ornament features nine rounds and is the most challenging of the ornaments in this crochet along.
That being said, it is also my favourite! I love the vintage feel of the ornament and the variety of crochet stitches.
Materials:
For this crochet Christmas ornament, along with the DIY Ornament which I purchased from my local craft store, you will need a small amount of a light weight yarn.
For my ornaments I used the Shawl in a Ball by Lion Brand Yarn. It is classified as a medium worsted weight, but I find it on the lighter side. So if you would like to substitute for a different yarn, you will want to find a light (#3) yarn.
You will also need a 4 mm crochet hook. I am using a wooden Streamline crochet hook in Ebony by Furls Crochet.
