• Hook: 3.5 mm (E) crochet hook

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Create the Base: Start with a magic ring. To do this, wrap the yarn around your fingers to form a loop, then pull a loop of yarn through the ring. Work 6 single crochet (sc) stitches into the magic ring. Pull tight to close the ring.
2. Round 1: Work 2 sc in each stitch around. You should have a total of 12 sc at the end of this round.
3. Round 2: *1 sc in the next stitch, 2 sc in the following stitch* - repeat this pattern around. You will end up with 18 sc.
4. Round 3: *2 sc in the next stitch, 2 sc in the following stitch* - repeat this pattern around. You will have 24 sc at the end of this round.
5. Round 4: Work 1 sc in each stitch around for 3 rounds. This will create a solid base for your dreamcatcher.
6. Change Color: Switch to navy blue yarn. For Round 8, work *3 sc in the next stitch, 2 sc in the following stitch* - repeat this pattern around. You should have 30 sc at the end of this round.
7. Round 9: Work in a shell pattern by crocheting 5 double crochet (dc) stitches in one stitch, then skip 2 stitches. Repeat this around the entire round.
8. Create the Outer Ring: Chain 5, then slip stitch to join, forming a ring. This will be the outer edge of your dreamcatcher.
9. Make the Tassels: Cut various lengths of yarn in different colors for your tassels. To create a tassel, take several strands of yarn, fold them in half, and tie them securely at the top. Attach these tassels to the bottom of the dreamcatcher by tying them onto the outer ring.
10. Add Beads: If desired, thread beads onto the yarn and secure them with knots. This adds a beautiful touch to your dreamcatcher.
11. Finish with a Hanging Loop: Use a long chain of white yarn to create a loop for hanging your dreamcatcher. Simply chain until you reach your desired length, then attach it to the top of the dreamcatcher.

Now you have a beautiful, colorful dreamcatcher that you crafted yourself! Hang it in your favorite space and enjoy the whimsical charm it brings to your home.
