About This Christmas Bell Pattern

  • These bell decorations are easy to make and work in one piece from the top down to the bottom of the bell. 
  • We have used #3 light worsted weight yarn with a glitter thread through it for a festive look. However, you can use another similar-weight yarn.
  • We have used a decorative thin gold cord for the hanging loop, but you could also use a length of yarn.
  • If you don't want to add the crochet bow, leave it off or replace it with a small ribbon bow.
  • These crochet bells do not have a clapper, but you could easily add one by threading a small bead onto a thin cord and gluing it to the insides of the bell.
  • This crochet Christmas ornament pattern is quick to make and can be made in about about 20-25 minutes.
  • Not only are these mini bells great for decorating your Christmas tree, but they also make lovely seasonal gift embellishments.
