A small soft Christmas tree can be used asdecoration for a large Christmas tree or a keychain, you can put it next to the guests' plates on the New Year's table or give it to friends. It also makes a great pincushion.For the Christmas tree we will need:

- Cotton wool;
- Needle and thread.
This soft Christmas tree is very easy and quick to knit.Even those who are just learning how to crochet can handle it. It is perfect for doing needlework with children. This Christmas tree consists of two identical parts connected to each other. So, let's start knitting. Make an initial loop on the hook and knit 1 air loop.Now we will knit a simple column into the same loop.Let's turn the knitting and knit one air loop and two simple columns.The next row will consist of 4 columns andone air loop at the beginning of the row. Here and further in each row you will need to add 2 loops. The loops need to be added one at each edge, that is, from the outer loops knit two simple columns. In total in this row there will be 6 columns and 1 lifting loop.Now you need to make 9 loops - 8 columns and 1 lifting loop.In the next row we knit 11 loops.And in the final row we knit 13 loops. The first triangle of our Christmas tree is ready. Cut the thread.We will continue knitting with a new thread, stepping back 4 columns from the beginning of the first triangle. In the fifth column we will knit 2 simple columns.Then we will knit three more simple columns and finish the row with two columns from one loop. There should be 4 columns left until the end of the row.Next, we knit in the same way as the first triangle. In the next row, there will be 9 loops, then 11 and 13 loops. But after 13 loops, we will knit one row without increases.But in the last row we will make increases again and knit 15 columns.Let's cut the thread again. Turn it over and see what we've got.We will start knitting the third triangle, stepping back again4 loops from the edge of the second triangle, again with two columns from one loop. Then we knit five simple columns, and again we knit two columns from one. In total, there should be 9 loops.In the last triangle we knit like this: the initial row is 9 loops, the second row is 11, the third is 13, the fourth and fifth are 15, the last, sixth row is 17 loops.We knit the second half of the Christmas tree in the same way.Now we will connect both halves together. We will do this with simple columns, starting the binding from the edge of the lower triangle, and moving towards the top of the tree. Having reached the top, we continue tying the tree on the other side.We reach the base of our tree. During the tying process we hide the threads inside our tree.We fill our tree with cotton wool through the remaining side.And we finish the binding of the bottom.Now it remains to decorate our Christmas tree. For decoration we will use acrylic pendants in the form of crystals. And bright acrylic beads. You can decorate one side of our tree or both.
