Get your woodland Christmas on with this quick crochet acorn ornament! It’s worked all in one piece and with one color change, so no sewing!
Ch – Chain
Sc – Single Crochet
Hdc – Half Double Crochet
Inc – Increase
Dec – Decrease
Sl St – Slip Stitch
St(s) – Stitch(es)
BLO – Back Loop Only
FLO – Front Loop Only
Increases are made by making 2 single crochet stitches into the same stitch. Note: In row 11, you will also work the increases in the front loop only. In all other rows you work the increases in both loops.
All decreases in this pattern are single crochet decreases. Decreases are made by using the invisible decrease method – Insert hook under front loop only of next two stitches, yarn over, draw through first two loops on hook, yarn over, draw through remaining two loops to finish. The only time in this pattern the invisible decrease will not be used is in row 12. You will make an invisible decrease but in the back loop only (insert hook into back loop of next two stitches, yarn over and draw through first two loops on hook, yarn over, draw through remaining two loops to finish.)
Back Loop only – rather than insert your hook into both loops, insert your hook under the back loop only and work the indicated stitch.
Front Loop only – Rather than insert your hook into both loops, insert your hook under the front loop only and work the indicated stitch. Need help identifying the front loop/back loop only? Check out this video: https://youtu.be/GiHnfSsg11U

Cut yarn leaving at least a 6 inch tail and thread tail through your yarn needle. Pass your needle through the remaining stitches, pull tight to close. Tie off and weave in yarn tail.
Take a 10 inch piece of jute or yarn and fold in half, making a loop of yarn at the top (left). Pick a stitch in the center of your ornament where you want to attach your string (right).
Insert your hook from the back through to the front of your work (left), and place the yarn loop over your hook (right).
Draw this through the stitch and pull through (left). Pull the loop through and make it larger (right).
Pull the two ends through the loop (left). Pull the ends to tighten (right).
Now tie a bow or knot with the ends.
Now it’s time to hang up your new acorn ornament!
