Lacy Picot Ornament
Here is another ornament crochet pattern. This one is done up with the picot stitch and a few other stitches to give you somewhat of a lacy edge.
My pattern tester, Kathy, tested my flower ornament and she came up with a bunch of ideas on what to do with these. Some ideas include a picture frame, or attaching other embellishments to the center of the ring.
This ornament is crocheted around a plastic ring from a water bottle. You can use other rings or even check in your local craft store for something similar.
If using the rings from water bottles, you’ll need to trim off these tabs with an exacto knife. Otherwise, they’ll peak through the thread.
As for the yarn, I used a size three crochet thread. It allowed me to add a pretty texture without it getting too wide. Use anything similar that will keep well over the years so you can keep re-using it.
