Decorating an apartment or house for the New Year is a tradition that all people try to adhere to. In addition to decorating all the rooms in the room with garlands and toys, Christmas trees are also decorated, most recently artificial ones. Toys for decoration can be used in completely different ways: purchased or made with your own hands, you can crochet them, they will look beautiful and original, and if you make them multi-colored, this will add zest to all the decorations. You can decorate any corner of the apartment, and the toys can be both large (hares, bears, dogs) and small ones that decorate Christmas trees. You can learn more about how to make Christmas tree decorations and toys for decorating a room.
Before knitting Christmas decorations, you need to decide on their purpose, for example, toys can be intended to decorate a Christmas tree, room or table. So, for the New Year's table, you can knit different toys in the form of animals, but for this you need to have knitting experience or a special pattern that will tell you how to properly crochet or knit. Knitting lessons with patterns can be found in special magazines or on handicraft websites, but it is worth remembering that the knitting process must begin in advance, before the New Year holidays, otherwise there will be no time later, since there will be other activities in preparation for the New Year. Here is an example of a pattern for knitting a bell for a Christmas tree.
Crochet Christmas tree from motifs
Toys are made quite easily, since special diagrams show each step. So, you can crochet a Christmas tree, for this you need to use squares of different sizes, from which triangles will be made, and connecting them from the smallest square to the largest, the result should be a Christmas tree. You need to tie a brown Christmas tree trunk to the base of the large square. In order to make a beautiful Christmas tree, it is not necessary to use only green threads; you can combine different colors and decorate the tree with a white frame in the form of snow.
So, first you need to knit six squares; it is better to use the granny square pattern. One corner of each square needs to be turned over to the front side and a button must be sewn to it, with which the corner will be attached to the main part of the tree. So all the squares need to be connected to each other and sewed from small to large. At the very top of the tree you need to make a special hook made of fabric, from which it will be hung.
New Year's crochet toys: skates
Continuing the master class, you can stop at such an interesting toy as skates. They will look very beautiful and original, as they are made in a rather interesting style.
For skates you will need a hook, two paper clips and a description of the pattern according to which they will be knitted. So, using the diagram you can see which hook should be used for knitting and how many stitches there should be to make skates.
First, you need to knit 17 single crochets on one side of the paperclip, and then at the end you need to use the single crochet method. Next, the skate is knitted according to a pattern in which the connecting posts and regular ones vary. After this, you need to tie the laces on top of the skates; they should be a different color, not the same as the skates themselves. The second skate is knitted in the same way, after which they need to be connected to each other with a loop on top, by which they will be hung on the Christmas tree.
How to crochet bulky New Year's toys
The video tutorial shows that in order to get voluminous toys for the Christmas tree and for decorating the apartment, you need to knit two identical flat toys, which later need to be tied together with connecting posts, and you need to place soft material inside as a filler. It can be cotton wool, padding polyester or other material; to fill the toy with it, you do not need to completely sew up two parts, but leave a small hole into which the filler is placed.
In the same way, you can make toys for the Christmas tree in the form of balls and other shapes, or sew some kind of fairy-tale hero. For soft New Year's toys that should decorate the table, filler is required, since they will not hold their shape otherwise and will fall. Such toys can be hung from loops or planted under the Christmas tree.
New Year's toys can be used as holiday gifts for children: first, you can decorate your apartment and Christmas tree with them, and after the holidays, children will play with them.
You can involve your child in the process of making knitted toys if he is interested. The main thing is that he does not do anything without prompting and adult supervision, otherwise he may get hurt or tie the toy incorrectly. There are no restrictions in the choice of colors; each master chooses colors to his own taste.
Video on the topic of the article
With the onset of this winter, we are perhaps waiting for the arrival of the most fabulous winter miracle - New Year 2015, and we are crocheting New Year's toys. And such that you can’t take your eyes off. The family gathers at the table about two hours before the chimes strike, gives gifts and looks at what is hanging on the green beauty, and asks who took part in its decoration. Everyone is happy and having fun, and they also give gifts to adults and children.
A wonderful custom appeared among our ancestors: they began to decorate the Christmas tree about two thousand years ago, and the people of that time firmly believed that spirits lived in every spruce or pine tree, influencing the future of people, determining whether the grain harvest would be harvested next year or not, what will grow from vegetables: each person expects only the best from the coming year. Every year, but in mid-December, our ancestors went into a dense forest to appease the spirits there along with a fire. Everyone was looking for a tall and fluffy spruce and on its branches they sent gifts for the spirits, which were baked from dough and carved out of wood.
Time passed: while traveling around European countries, Peter 1 fell in love with the Protestant custom of decorating Christmas trees in the house, so upon returning to Russia he issued a decree: from January 1, 1700, all boyars and nobles were obliged to celebrate the New Year and decorate Christmas trees.
In the 17th century, there was also an interesting custom that was supported by the Russian Tsar: at Christmas they attached a tree to the ceiling with its trunk and waited for the holy spirit to descend into the house along it, bringing the good news that the son of God was born. The tree played the role of a staircase along which the dead supposedly climbed to heaven on Christmas Day, so gingerbread and apples were placed on the branches so that the deceased would take them with him on the road.
Then they began to weave toys and so that the deceased would give these souvenirs to the angels, and they would escort him to the gates of heaven. And now such toys are hung on the Christmas tree, but their purpose is different - to decorate the New Year's interior.

Knitted Christmas toys: Christmas tree
Let's learn how to crochet a Christmas tree so that it reminds us of a tiny tree.
Buy a skein of Iris thread for the product, white, elastic. For it, pick up half a meter of ribbon yarn, white threads, a tailor's needle, and scissors.
Knit the Christmas tree according to the pattern, but remember that you will have to cut the thread 2 times. The first time - after the third transition to the fourth, and from the fourth to the fifth, tie it.
In a “crawfish” step, tie the perimeter of the tree.
Decorate the Christmas tree with ribbon-like rainbow yarn in one and a half centimeter long pieces, securing with sewing thread using a thin hook. You can also make bows and sew them on the top of your head: it will turn out beautiful and joyful.
If you don’t want a bow, tie a loop on the top of your head and pull the Iris thread through it.

Crochet Christmas toys
based on the RING.
Toys knitted from thick woolen threads BASED ON A RING look very beautiful and bright on the Christmas tree. Like in the photo below. We take a plastic ring and simply tie it with single crochets - that is, we do the same thing that we usually do with a ring of chain stitches when we crochet a round shape.
Only with ring more convenient for children's hands to work with. Because it can be held in your hand, firm and comfortable. And don’t rush to tie it. The easiest way to teach children to knit NOT based on a sluggish chain of air loops dangling in your hand– it’s much easier to tie a solid and durable ring by slipping the hook under the ring and picking up the thread.
Where can I get a plastic ring for tying?
You can buy a ring at a sewing accessories store (plastic rings for buckles on dress belts), or you can use a curtain ring. And it’s even easier and cheaper to get the rings yourself - which remain on the necks of plastic bottles when you unscrew the cap. They can be small from drink bottles, or larger - on the wide necks of yogurt bottles. This is exactly the ring we see in the left photo below.
You can also use scissors to cut off the edge of a plastic cup (like the right photo below).
You can decorate such a craft with bright shiny ribbons, small bells, and Christmas tree decorations (nowadays you can find absolutely tiny Christmas balls on sale - they are just the right size for this).
You can also sew on the back side of such a knitted toy a round piece of a picture cut out from a New Year’s card.
Of course, an adult can knit such a toy without a ring - as done in the photo below. But then you need to starch it well so that it keeps the shape of the ring. I have already told and shown how to properly starch and dry crocheted items in a special article.
Where can I get patterns for such a crochet craft for the New Year?
And here's where...
The Internet is full of a variety of patterns for crocheting small napkins or snowflakes - all we need to do is take the pattern and remove the MIDDLE from it - just throw it away. And the crochet ring pattern will remain.
The main thing is to make sure that the size of your plastic ring ACCEPTS the same number of columns that you counted in the first row of your “leaky” diagram.
That is, the SMALLER THE PLASTIC RING, the smaller the HOLE IN THE DIAGRAM should be.

Crochet Christmas toys
Based on CIRCLE.
You can crochet New Year's toys WITHOUT A HOLE - in the form of a solid, filled circle. That is, we knit a regular flat circle, for example white. We tie it with green threads, alternating double crochets (4 pieces) with single crochets and tiny connecting stitches.
I don’t specifically give any diagrams. Helps to turn on the brain and understand how the world of knitting forms works.
Look...
Double crochets make the high part of the scallop, single crochets stand along the edges of the scallop center (they create the lower edges of the scallops). And one connecting column is knitted between the scallops - to create empty space between them. And we get scalloped green lace around the edges of our white round piece.
Multi-colored circular knitting mosaic .
You can knit a round Christmas tree toy by alternating the color of the threads in a circle. The first circular row is with white threads, the second row is with red threads. Third row with green threads ( see photo below). And the fourth red row has long red rays that stretch towards the middle of the craft. Now I will tell you in detail how to do all this - simply and quickly for beginners...
So... for the fourth circular row we take red threads again... and knit it not quite usual. Look at the photo below - you see that the fourth red row has RED RAYS crossing the white and green rows. This may seem confusing to newbies. But in reality it fits together very simply.
When we start knitting the fourth red row, we start normally We knit 2 stitches by crocheting the bottom white row. And we knit the next 2 stitches by crocheting bottom RED ROW (the one under the white and under the green, at the very bottom).
That is we stick the hook much lower (in the basement) - and in order to rise from this bottom, we need to knit a high post (with three crochets). Therefore, before we pierce this bottom red row with a hook, we throw the thread on the hook three times - three turns... then we pierce the bottom red row at the bottom, and knit one yarn over, a second yarn over, a third yarn over. And we get that same HIGH COLUMN-BEAM that we like so much on the craft in the photo below.
And it turns out that the fourth red row looks like alternating 2 regular stitches - and 2 such long stitches with three crochets, with piercing the lower rows of knitting.
And for those who don't understand anything from the explanation above. I give a free solution to the same problem. Knit the entire craft simply by alternating colors in a circle. And then use threads to make rays - with simple stitches, as when sewing. We crochet a thick red thread (2-4 folds) through the finished craft - embroidering rays, like embroidery.
You yourself can come up with your own versions of a bright multi-colored knitted tree decoration using the same technique.
Crochet Christmas tree roundels in the shape of beets .
And the shape of the circle can be slightly modified. Give it the silhouette of a “beet” - thick from the barrels and pointed at the lower tip (as in the photo of crocheted Christmas tree decorations below).
In order for our circle to expand from the barrels like a pot-bellied beet, we need to knit stitches in the last circular row that are not the same in height - knit stitches with two crochets on the side, and knit single crochets from the bottom and top of the circle.
A sharp tip appears if at the bottom point of the circle you unexpectedly tie 2 high stitches (in three crochets).
Christmas tree craft - crocheted candy.
You can knit two round pieces that are identical in shape. Stack them like a sandwich on top of each other and insert a round cap from a yogurt bottle between them. Let's get a voluminous solid crochet craft. It can be decorated in the form of a red and white candy cane as in the photo below.
Of course, we need the red and white sides of the future candy to bend (like the edges of a lid). For this to happen, we need to stop adding columns in the last rows - those rows that should wrap towards the side edges of the lid.
Crochet plump rounds for the New Year tree.
We can also stuff cotton wool or synthetic padding between two colored rounds and we’ll get a plump crocheted New Year’s toy.
You can take a pattern for such knitted items from your head - just knit by eye... as you knit, figuring out how many stitches to knit in a repeating motif.
Or take any round napkin pattern where there are not very large holes in the knitting.
But in fact, the diagram of this pot-bellied round thing is a diagram similar to PETALS diverging to the sides. In each petal there is a hole (air loop) between the columns. The next petal of the next row is knitted into this hole - and also do not forget to knit a hole in the center in this petal (with an air loop) so that the next petal can be made into it. And each time the number of stitches in the hole is knitted a little more... So there is a natural and uniform addition of stitches in each new circular row.
For those who are too lazy to think, I give you this diagram. It will suit our problem.
And between two patterned rounds we can insert a WHOLE CHRISTMAS BALL. And you will get a round crochet toy for the New Year.

Knitted balls for the New Year.
Using the circular crochet technique, you can knit balls - spherical shapes. To do this, you need to not add too many loops in each circular row, and then we will not get a flat round piece, but one that will be wrapped in a cup, forming a hemisphere of a ball.
You can knit one-color balls, stuff them with padding polyester or paper shavings. And therefore decorate. Make embroidery with white threads - without a needle, simply pulling the threads with a twist through the rows of knitting (this is how the snowflake on the ball below is made).
You can decorate them with elements of store-bought lace, beads and more.
You can decorate the balls with elements of knitted flowers.
You can decorate the balls in the form of Smeshariki from the cartoon, or other characters - for example, an owl, a snowman, a pot-bellied round Santa Claus and others.
Here's another good idea: Crochet bells for the New Year.
If you have learned how to knit balls, then you can already knit bells automatically. To get a bell shape, we do this.
First, we knit as if it were a ball, we reach the middle of the ball (that is, half the ball is already in your hands).
And then we make the last circular row, adding one column at a time, after two knitted ones. And we get an extension along the edge of the bell - its bell.

Crochet sweets for the New Year.
Just as I’m walking around, I’m adding some sweet ideas for decorating a New Year’s tree with crochet. You can crochet gingerbread cookies, cookies and sand men and hang everything on the Christmas tree. You will get a confectionery Christmas tree.
You can decorate your knitted New Year's cupcake in a variety of ways, knit chocolate icing into a flat blot, and then sew it onto the top of the cupcake.
You can tie twisted lace and make whipped cream foam around the edges of the cupcake (as in the right photo). This spiral knitted cream foam is easy to make. First, we knit a simple strip of single crochets, and then in the second row of the strip we make a SHARP INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF STICKS - that is, we knit three stitches into each column of the previous row. And our strip begins to gather into a twisted spiral accordion. We get the finished cream.
And here is another confectionery product suitable for decorating a Christmas tree for the New Year - a crocheted sand man.
And if you are a master at crocheting, you can figure out how to knit these RIBBED cupcakes. In the lower biscuit part we see ribs (I don’t know what pattern this is, maybe you can tell me?). And on the white cream top of the left cupcake there are also stripes like on a marshmallow - I also haven’t learned how to knit like that yet... but I hope that over time I’ll get the pattern and publish it here.
Package of New Year's ideas No. 5
FLAT crochet applique.
You can also knit a variety of flat silhouettes in the form of holiday paraphernalia or New Year’s characters.
It is not necessary to buy a lot of multi-colored balls. Having only the three main colors of the New Year - red, white, green - you can knit a whole series of New Year's flat silhouettes.
Such a flat New Year's applique can not only hang on your tree, but also decorate the packaging of your gifts - as in the photo below.
We have an article on knitted Christmas trees on our website - there you will find a variety of ways to knit a flat silhouette of a Christmas tree - there are diagrams and instructions for this.
Once you start crocheting, you start to understand how to make the fabric take the shape you want. How to decrease or add columns along the edges of the silhouette.
If you find it difficult, knit simple rectangles - and decorate them with details, tying them along the edges on the right sides - like the wings and ears of this owl in the picture below.
In the same way, in a straight line - in the form of a regular rectangle, you can crochet a deer craft.
You can decorate your knitted New Year's crafts using buttons, beads, rhinestones, and sequins.
Knitted Santa Claus for the Christmas tree is also not a tricky job. You can knit it using the circular knitting technique (in the right photo below). Or using the figured silhouette knitting technique (in the left photo below).
Flat crochet shapes can be arranged to form a Christmas wreath.

Bulk crochet toys
For the New Year tree.
You can crochet plump miniature toys for a Christmas tree. To make them light, you don’t need to stuff them with heavy cotton wool, fill them with light padding polyester. The threads themselves are already a heavy material; do not weigh down the pendant toy with filler.
You can crochet chubby snowmen, deer, bear cubs, penguins, squirrels, foxes, bunnies and other guests of your New Year's party.
Knitted bullfinch birds look very beautiful. Plump and cute with black beady eyes.
These are the beautiful ideas for crocheted Christmas tree decorations that I have collected today in this article. I really wish that this New Year you will be able to create a small Christmas tree miracle with your own hands - for the joy of the whole family. Let your older children help you, even if they knit only a few columns in your craft - this will already charge it with the light and magic of the country of childhood.
May bright and pure memories from your childhood come into your life in the New Year. Let us remember the faith in miracles and the expectation of magic - in which you bathed in your childhood.
The reality has not changed. Only you changed when you grew up. But there is always magic. You just need to go back... Catch the wave, as radio amateurs say. Open the window, stick your head out and say in a whisper into the frosty sky - I want to return to “Where Miracles Happen”... and then live, smile and be ready for everything good... And not be surprised by anything - you asked for it))).

And again such a warm, magical and always long-awaited holiday is approaching - New Year! And again I want to do something so as not to meet him empty-handed. Today we will knit small New Year's toys for gifts to our friends and family and for decorating the house and Christmas tree. This article is for those who know how to crochet or knit and I suggest looking at the photos for inspiration.
Let's start with knitted Christmas decorations for the home.
We knit a garland of small Christmas trees and decorate with old buttons. It can be placed on the wall, on furniture or on a Christmas tree made from scrap materials.
Knit as many mini-Christmas trees as you think necessary and start decorating them. Specially made loops will allow you to hang these Christmas trees in all rooms of the apartment. And, believe me, the holiday comes to those homes where they are waiting for it and preparing for it.
Of course, the smaller and simpler the product, the faster it can be produced. Try to start and you will succeed!
What is New Year without candles? This composition is easy to install on a chest of drawers or cabinet. It will be even better if you add living coniferous branches.
Tie miniature panels and glue them onto colored cardboard. You can make greeting cards from such blanks, or you can leave them as pictures to decorate the New Year’s interior.
This winter knitted napkin can be placed on a table, on a windowsill, on a stool, etc. Little things like this create...
And these knitted items with a New Year's theme will be useful in the house and can serve as a hot stand or as an oven mitt.
Be sure to tie a poinsettia - a Christmas flower. It will decorate a table or cabinet during the winter holidays.
Do you remember how in childhood you made chains for the Christmas tree out of colored paper? So the chain can be easily connected! You can decorate a window, door or closet with it.
The knitted chain can be complemented with the same knitted houses. You will immediately feel comfort and warmth!
Necessarily Let's decorate our Christmas tree with knitted toys. Of course, first of all, Christmas tree branches were always decorated with balls. For us these will be balls in warm knitted “clothes”.
You can knit single-color balloon covers from the remnants of different yarns. Multi-colored balls on the Christmas tree will certainly make it unique. Such a Christmas tree will only be in your home!
Balls or cones placed in such a knitted case will not only look unique, but will also not break if they accidentally fall on the floor.
The following knitted ball samples will undoubtedly require more time and effort to make. But they are most likely worth it!
You can knit stripes, flowers, or even a whole ornament. Everything will look just great!
The marine theme in the house will be supported by balloons with anchors.
And such a ball is a real New Year's ball, because it simultaneously resembles Father Frost (or Santa Claus) and the Christmas flower-poinsettia.
Knitted Christmas tree balls can be decorated with beads, beads, sequins, buttons and all sorts of little things that you have in the house.
Ribbons, pieces of fabric and felt, as well as lace are suitable for decorating balls.
Alternate “knitted” balls with other toys on the Christmas tree, for example hearts.
Petals of this flower Even a novice craftswoman can easily knit a Christmas tree.
Above we looked at photos of Christmas trees for interior decoration. The same ones can be tied for a large Christmas tree and hung on the branches.
To make it faster, sew these Christmas trees from old sweaters or pullovers.
Agree, your Christmas tree will look unusual and non-standard if small ones appear on its branches. wardrobe items.
Let's decide this: this year we'll decorate our Christmas tree in an unconventional, unconventional way, but in an original and humorous way. We'll tie small warm things and hang them on the tree.
Let's not forget about these little hats, how would we be without them?
Knitting such a hat on five knitting needles takes ten minutes!
And, of course, socks. The more socks, the more gifts.
For a small Christmas tree there should be the same toys. They will require less time and yarn.
Father Frosts and Santa Clauses were invented to make adults and children enjoy the holiday.
Knitting several snowmen is not easy, but very simple. Knit the body on five knitting needles. Then sew, rounding the edges on one side first. Fill the resulting “pocket” with filler and sew up the other edge. Using a strong thread (like twine), you pull the “torso” in the place where the snowman’s “neck” and “waist” will be. Tie a scarf and belt in these places so that the twine is not visible. We knit the hat and hands separately.
The snowman can be knitted and quite “tall”. Children will surely enjoy playing with such a New Year's toy.
It is also not difficult to knit deer, bears, hares and everyone, everyone, everyone..
The symbol of the year, penguins and again snowmen... Everyone will fit on our Christmas tree and everyone will come in handy.
And be sure to knit a few Christmas angels: symbols of purity and hope.
When you knit, be sure to think about light and good things. Just prepare a holiday!
Decorate a small Christmas tree with “knitted” candies in colored “wrappers”.
Since childhood we love everything fairy tales and cartoons. Imagine how many characters you can prepare to decorate the New Year tree! Some of my favorites are the gnomes from the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm.
Dwarves are different. There are very young ones, and there are also “old men” with beards.
No matter how they appear to our imagination, the main thing is that they bring goodness and faith into the house that everything will be fine!
As we all know, the coming year always corresponds to some animal or bird, so they decided in the east. And now the whole world believes in this and tries to maintain traditions. For any New Year, you can prepare knitted toys in the form of animals - symbols of the coming year.
We have adopted their traditions from Western cultures, and now in our country you can meet not Father Frost, but Santa Claus on New Year’s Day. And we also know how to put gifts in long (and not so long) socks. So that everyone finds their Christmas sock, take care of this in advance.
Place small gifts in small socks, and large ones, naturally, vice versa.
Everyone should receive a New Year's gift! Therefore, the larger the family, the greater the number of socks!
So that no one gets confused where his gift is, label the socks by name!
This soft and cozy gift bag is even easier to knit than a sock. Therefore - let's get to work!
Gifts for family and friends for the New Year. Of course, sets of New Year's balls are suitable for decorating a Christmas tree.
A wonderful holiday is just around the corner - the New Year, which we must celebrate with dignity. We invite you to surprise your loved ones and acquaintances with amazing New Year crochet toys. The process of knitting them will not take much time or effort, but will help you gain a New Year's feeling.
Let's start simple
This master class with diagrams shows the step-by-step process of making bells. This knitting technique is perfect for beginners.
For knitting, take yarn, hook No. 1.5 and satin ribbons.
We close seven air loops in a ring, then make another ch of lifting. We knit twelve single crochets. In the next row we knit three ch and one double crochet. On the last rows in the diagram we knit two more ch. We make a bow and then tie satin ribbons.
Detailed diagram:
Knitting patterns for other types of bells:
Openwork ball
We cast on a chain of 12 chain stitches and knit three chain stitches. We knit until we get 23 double crochets. We knit seven chain stitches, skip two double crochets, and the third one is knitted in the same way as the connecting stitch. We knit a row using the same pattern. Then we cast on 4 ch and make a double crochet. We continue knitting according to this pattern.
Schemes of other patterns of New Year's balls:
Festive tree
The process of making a small Christmas tree can be followed using the example of a master class, which shows a description of each step of the work.
To work, take thin green yarn, a suitable hook and beads.
The first step is to knit a chain of three air loops, which we then close into a ring. Using single crochets we knit a cone-shaped figure. Gradually, in every third row you need to make one increase. The result should be a small figurine with a diameter of 6 cm and a height of 12 cm.
Then we make small branches. Knitting pattern: we make a half crochet, then we knit 4 double crochets, we knit a half double crochet from one loop, after which we make a single crochet and according to this pattern we knit upwards: a half double crochet, 4 dc, a half double crochet, then a sc.
We decorate the Christmas tree with beads of different colors and sizes or beads. The New Year's tree is ready.
