Step-by-Step Instructions

Round 1

1. Start with a magic ring. To do this, wrap the yarn around your fingers to create a loop, then pull the working yarn through the loop.
2. Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet).
3. Into the magic ring, crochet 11 double crochets (dc). You should have a total of 12 dc in the ring.
4. Join the round by slip stitching (sl st) to the top of the initial chain 3.

Round 2

1. Chain 1, then single crochet (sc) in the same stitch as the join.
2. Chain 5. This creates the first ch-5 space.
3. Skip the next double crochet, then sc in the next dc.
4. Repeat the sequence: chain 5, skip the next dc, sc in the next dc until you have completed the round. You should have 6 ch-5 spaces.
5. Join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet to close the round.

Round 3

1. Slip stitch into the first ch-5 space.
2. Chain 1, then in the same ch-5 space, work the following stitches: sc, chain 3, sc, chain 5, sc, chain 3, sc. This creates a decorative point.
3. Repeat this stitch pattern in each ch-5 space around the ring.
4. Once you have completed all ch-5 spaces, join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet to close the round.
5. Fasten off your yarn and weave in any loose ends using a tapestry needle.

Forming the Ring

1. Cut a 6-inch length of yarn.
2. Thread this length through the center of your completed snowflake.
3. Tie the ends of the yarn together to form a loop. This will be the napkin ring.
4. To use, slide a napkin through the loop to secure it in place.
