Product Information

Take the long tail end of one of the ears and use your yarn needle to thread the end in through the base of the 6th stitch and out the top left of this stitch.

Using the recommended chunky/bulky weight yarn, the finished baubles measure approximately 4.5″/11.5cm wide (ear tip to ear tip), and approximately 4”/10cm tall (antler tip to base) with a head diameter of 2.5″/6cm. Crochet some adorable Reindeer Baubles for your Christmas tree, or as little festive gifts, with this free crochet pattern! Catch the bottom of the ear together so it is folded in half. Attach ear to the top of the reindeer head slightly forward of the centre leaving room for the antlers. To keep our stitches tight we’ll be using a hook size smaller than recommended for the yarn for the main reindeer pieces, and 2 sizes smaller for the antlers to make them stiffer.To find the position for our ears, count 6 stitches along on the head piece, starting with the first st. Follow this stitch down to the round below, we’ll be using the 6th and 5th stitch of this second round down to attach our first ear. You can use other yarn weights and types, adjusting your hook sizes to suit, but this will change the finished size. Numbers shown in ( ) at the end of each row/round indicates the number of stitches you should have at the end of that row/round.

Join with a sc– Starting with a slip knot on hook, insert hook into the joining stitch, yarn over and pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through both loops on hook to make a sc stitch.

Fold the antlers so there is a long and a short antler. Sew down the row ends. Attach to the top of the bauble, one at each side.
