How to make the body of a crochet angel

Crocheting the body

Start by making a magic ring and work 6 double crochets (sc) in the ring. Tighten the ring and then work 2 sc in each stitch (st) around the ring (12 sc in total). Continue to increase the number of stitches by working 2 sc in every second stitch in the next round (18 sc), and then 2 sc in every third stitch in the following round (24 sc).

Shaping the body

When the body reaches the desired size, continue crocheting in the round without increasing the number of stitches. This creates the length of the body. When you reach the desired length, start decreasing the number of stitches by working 2 sc together in every third stitch, then in every second stitch until the opening is closed. Fill the body with stuffing before closing the last opening.

Continue working in the round without increasing the number of stitches to shape the head. When the head is big enough, start decreasing the number of stitches and fill the head before closing it completely.

Crocheting the wings of a crochet angel

Crocheting the wings

Start by making a magic ring and crochet 6 sc in the ring. Tighten the ring and then work 2 sc in each stitch (12 sc). Increase the number of stitches by working 2 sc in every other stitch (18 sc). Continue working in the round without increasing the number of stitches to form the wings. Make two wings in the same way.

Assembling parts for a crochet angel

Mounting the angel

Now that all the pieces are crocheted, it’s time to assemble them. Use a needle and thread to sew the head to the body. Then sew the wings to the back of the body. Make sure all parts are securely attached and adjust the stuffing if necessary to make your crocheted angel look nice and even.

Adding details

To make your crochet angel extra special, you can add details like beads or embellishments. Use a needle and thread to sew small beads on the wings or add a small bow on the angel’s head.

Recipe for variations of a crochet angel

Color variations

You can experiment with different colors of yarn to create variations of your crochet angel. Try using pastel colors for a soft and sweet look, or use metallic yarn for a more elegant and sparkly angel.

Size variations

By changing the size of the crochet hook and type of yarn, you can create crochet angels in different sizes. Try using thinner yarn and a smaller hook to make a small and delicate angel, or use thicker yarn and a larger hook to make a bigger and more impressive angel.
