Homespun Christmas Tree Skirt Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

Homespun Christmas Tree Skirt Crochet Pattern
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

 I was going to release this design this last year, but time
 got away from me. So here it is a year later..and I love it!

It is a really easy pattern that stitches up fast.

It lays beautifully and sort of reminds me of one of
my old Christmas Sweaters!

I wanted a Rocky Mountain Colorado Rustic Feel.

It hasn't started snowing yet, so I put it around one
 of the trees in the side of yarn.

I chose this tree for the photo, for it's rustic pine tree look
 and imperfections. Those scars are from the Bucks 
rubbing their antlers on the it.

The yarn I used is Holiday Homespun, by Lionbrand Yarn.

 1 skein each of Red, Green and White.

 It is  lovely soft and bumpy yarn,with gold thread
 running through it.

It is a Bulky (5) yarn, so if you do not have this yarn, 

or want to use a different yarn, any Bulky (5) would

 probably work great.

For Tips on How To work With Homespun Style yarns
click this LINK

As you can see from this picture, it is basically stitched in a pentagon shape, and has a fun and easy chain loop trim.
You do not have to use the same striping effect I used.
Change it up and see what Happens!

The Shimmer Christmas Tree Skirt
Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach of
 Posh Pooch Designs

This is the 1st of many Blogs on

 How to have a Very Yarny Christmas 2015.

This is the beginning of a new Series.

 I will be posting Holiday blogs,  designs and crafts

My Christmas Tree looks a

 little lonely and empty right now.

I am very excited about how we will decorate it

 and do some fun Christmas Crafts together.

First on the decorating list is a Christmas Tree Skirt.

I used Red Heart Shimmer Yarns.

 If you can not find this yarn,

or I love this yarn Sparkle.

Any Worsted Weight (4) Yarn will work.
