Christmas Mini Wreath / Candy Cane Crochet PDF Pattern: Fast/

Make two mini Christmas ornaments—a crochet wreath and a candy cane—with this beginner-friendly PDF pattern (no abbreviations, US terms). Use leftover yarn to finish each piece in about 10–15 minutes: cover a tiny ring for the wreath, then create a candy cane with a super-fast wire wrap (or crochet spiral strips and twist).

What you’ll make
