- F 3.75 mm crochet hook for the tree
- A ring from a vitamin water bottle (1.5 inches) or a similar ring

- Hot glue gun for attaching decorations
Abbreviations:
- ch: chain
- sc: single crochet
- dc: double crochet
- sl st: slip stitch
Instructions:
Ring Start:
- Begin with the H hook for the ring part. Attach the yarn to the ring with a sl st.
- Round 1: ch 1 (does not count as a stitch), work 28 sc around the ring. Join with a sl st to the first sc.
Tree Body:
Switch to the F hook.
- Row 1: ch 1, in the same space as joining, work a dc. Dc in the next st. Ch 1, skip a stitch, dc in the next two sts. Repeat from * to * around. Join with a sl st to the first dc.
- Row 2: ch 1 and turn. Sl st into the first chain space. Ch 1 (not counted as a stitch), in the same chain space, work a "shell" (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc). Work a shell in each chain space across.
- Row 3: ch 1 and turn. Slip stitch into the first chain space. Work a shell in the first ch-2 space. Chain 2, work 2 dc in the next ch-2 space (between shells from the previous row), chain 2. Repeat from * to * across, ending with a shell in the last ch-2 space.
- Row 4 onwards: Repeat Rows 2 and 3, increasing the number of shells and 2-dc groups between the shells as the tree widens.
Repeat Pattern:
- Odd rows (shell rows): Work a shell in each ch-2 space across with no chains between shells.
- Even rows: ch 2, work 2 dc in the next ch-2 space, ch 2. Repeat from * to * across, ending with a shell in the last ch-2 space.
Continue repeating these two rows until the tree reaches your desired size, always ending on a shell row for a nice edge.
Finishing Touches:
- Fasten off and weave in ends.
- Use a hot glue gun to attach decorations such as ribbon roses, beads, or a bow at the top.
- Hang your festive Christmas tree on the wall or door as holiday decor!
