Holly and Berry Motifs

Using green yarn, crochet small holly leaves and attach them evenly around the skirt. For berries, use a tapestry needle to sew small red circles using red yarn clustered near the leaves.

Finishing

Use a yarn needle to weave in all ends. Steam block the tree skirt gently if needed to achieve a smooth finish.
