The Wispweave Snowflake is an eight round snowflake created by Julia Hart of Draiguna. This is one of her beautiful snowflake creations that will make a perfect decoration for any Christmas tree. This is an intermediate to advanced pattern, as it is made of cluster stitches and front post stitches, with the last round being the most complex of all the rounds. However, the instructions are clear and easy to follow, and she has pictures if needing help with the last round.
This was one of my first crochet thread projects that I gifted to family members for Christmas a couple of years ago. My sister says that she uses hers as a decoration under candles during the holidays!
#2 Ariel Snowflake
WRITTEN PATTERN AND CHART
The Ariel Snowflake is a ten point snowflake by Irina Maleeva. Consisting of eight rounds, this crochet snowflake pattern works up quickly, but looks intricate at the same time. This is another intermediate to advanced pattern due to the front post stitches and where they are placed, picots, and a few clusters. Her instructions are easy to follow as well.
#3 Chain Loop Snowflake
WRITTEN PATTERN
The Chain Loop Snowflake is a four round pattern by Coats and Clark (published by Better Homes and Gardens). I was going to say that this is an easy/beginner snowflake (it really isn’t hard), but the pattern doesn’t provide a list of abbreviations used and I found that some of the instructions say to h3 on the last round…which I wasn’t sure what that meant, but then I figured they meant to type ch3 NOT h3. Lp means loop in this pattern. In the last round, they also forgot to add an extra dc at the beginning of the spaces consisting of the ch 5 picots (you’ll see if you follow the pattern exactly). Despite that, this is a really pretty snowflake!
#4 Snowflake Pattern 3
CHART ONLY
The Snowflake Pattern 3 by Natalyushka is a short, three round snowflake. The pattern is made available via a crochet chart, unfortunately I was unable to find a written pattern. You can check out the creator’s instagram @natalyushka_handmade.
#5 Star Snowflake
WRITTEN PATTERN
Another Snowflake Pattern by Better Homes and Gardens, the Star Snowflake is a quick, three round snowflake. This is a very small snowflake, which is great to add some variety in sizes if you’re crocheting multiple snowflakes.

These three crochet snowflakes are brought to you by Yarnspirations. These are perfect for the holiday season or for adding a touch of elegance to your home during the winter!

The Easy to Crochet Snowflake is made available by the blog, Turquoise with Vanilla. This pattern uses simple stitches, single, double, half double, and treble crochets (along with chains of course!). This is another, 6 pointed, 6 round snowflake, but is a little bigger than the other snowflakes above. She has easy instructions and a chart of the snowflake.
#10 Winterlore Snowflake
WRITTEN PATTERN
Winterlore is another captivating crochet snowflake pattern by Julia Hart from Draiguna. This is an advanced level pattern that features 6 beautifully intricate rounds, resulting in a mesmerizing snowflake design that will add a touch of enchantment to your winter decor. You’ll need to know how to do front post stitches and I suggest sitting somewhere quietly to do this pattern.
#11 Snowflake Chart #6
CHART ONLY
This Crochet Snowflake, also provided by Turquoise with Vanilla combines the allure of a crochet snowflake with the delicate petals of a blooming flower. This snowflake features a series of treble clusters that resembles delicate flower petals blooming from the center. There is no written pattern for this snowflake that I have found, but there is a crochet chart complete with a symbol key available.

WRITTEN PATTERN
Introducing the Winter Dream Snowflake, another stunning pattern from Julia Hart of Draiguna. This is an advanced level pattern composed of 9 rounds, meticulously crafted with single and double crochet clusters, delicate chains and a series of pretty picots.
#13 Snowflake Pattern 2
CHART ONLY
This is another snowflake created by Natalyushka that is a chart only pattern. If you’re not familiar with reading crochet charts, I think these little snowflakes are a great way to break into that skill.
#14 Snowflake Pattern 4
CHART ONLY
The Snowflake Pattern 4 by Natalyushka is an even shorter, two round snowflake. This pattern is another crochet chart without a written pattern that I could find.
#15 Snowflake Pattern 5
CHART ONLY
Another snowflake pattern from Natalyushka, this one is a short snowflake, with lovely, long picots that make up each point. Also a crochet chart only pattern.

CHART ONLY
The Helena Snowflake is created by @onishchenko291. It is a beautiful, 8 round snowflake, composed of many front post stitches and picots. This is another chart only pattern.
#21 Hope Snowflake
CHART ONLY
The Hope Snowflake is also created by @onishchenko291. This is an interesting 12 point snowflake with 7 rounds with a combination of front post stitches, picots, and bobbles.
#22 Masha Snowflake
CHART ONLY
Another snowflake pattern by @onishchenko291, the Masha Snowflake is a 6 point, 7 round pattern. I think the points on this one look really good, I like how they appear “icy.” I’ve noticed that with some of her patterns, she doesn’t detail how you should start or end your rounds. Do the best you can and don’t overthink it.
#23 Natalya Snowflake
CHART ONLY
The Natalya Snowflake is again, created by @onishchenko291 (can you tell I absolutely love her patterns by now?). I really enjoyed this one, the long chains and the long points on the snowflakes make it look so very elegant.
#24 Starflake
WRITTEN PATTERN
This snowflake pattern has a cute little star crocheted in the middle of it. This is a 10 round pattern, although the creator does state that the last round is optional. She recommends switching colors throughout, but I prefer keeping mine all one color.
#25 Rhea Snowflake
WRITTEN PATTERN AND CHART
The Rhea Snowflake is a gorgeous pattern created by Irina Maleeva. This snowflake is made of puff stitches, front post stitches and picots. Not only does the author have a nicely written pattern, she also has an easy-to-read chart available.
#26 Adele Snowflake
WRITTEN PATTERN AND CHART
Another Irina Maleeva snowflake pattern, the Adele Snowflake is a 6 round, 6 point pattern with a lovely delicate and lacy look.
#27 A Snowflake for Bunny
WRITTEN PATTERN
A Snowflake for Bunny is a 7 round, 6 pointed snowflake. The last row is very interesting, as you’ll be making chains and slip stitching into those chains to create those icy points.
#28 Absaroka Snowflake
WRITTEN PATTERN
The Absaroka Snowflake is yet another delicate, lacy pattern. I love the way this one looks, however the author’s pattern instructions get a little confusing at the last round. I had to look at her picture and make adjustments. (I think she may have omitted the first couple of stitches to start the round before the repeat).
#29 Big Wet Heavy Snowflake
WRITTEN PATERN
The Big Wet Heavy Snowflake really does look as its name implies. The long chains in the last few rows gives this snowflake an interesting look.
#30 Blue River Snowflake
WRITTEN PATTERN
The Blue River Snowflake has big lacy holes that create a truly beautiful snowflake. This is only a 4 round snowflake and has an interesting way of starting the first round.
