The New Year and Christmas holidays are quickly approaching. It's time to think about decorations for the Christmas tree and home interior. Yes, I don’t argue, now a lot of beautiful jewelry can be purchased in the store. But you won’t find such original things there, made with love and soul.
Besides, it’s so nice to create such trinkets with your own hands, to come up with an original design for them, which you certainly won’t find in any store. I suggest crocheting New Year's bells to decorate the Christmas tree. And our diagram and description of the process will help you quickly cope with this task.
Necessary materials:
- Alize Cotton Gold yarn (50% acrylic, 50% cotton) white
- Alize Cotton Gold yarn (50% acrylic, 50% cotton) in various bright colors
- hook No. 2
- several colorful beads
Legend:
- KA – amigurumi ring
- dc - single crochet
- pr-ka - increase
- ub-ka - decrease
How to crochet a bell - diagram and description for beginners:
Since we will knit our bells in a circle, we will start knitting with the amigurumi ring known to all needlewomen, into which we knit 6 tbsp.
We continue knitting in the circle and the description given below:
1st: pr x 6 times = 12p
2p.: (st.b/n, pr-ka) x 6 times = 18p
3p.: (2 st.b/n, pr-ka) x 6 times = 24p 
Next we knit eight rows without changes in each row of 24 tbsp. 
In the ninth row we increase every fourth column of the previous row, resulting in 30 loops.
The tenth and eleventh rows are knitted in single crochets.
In the twelfth row we make an increase in each column of the previous row, we get 60 loops. 
The last, 13th row, change the white thread to any thread of a bright color (in my case, light green) and tie the base of the bell in a crawfish step, i.e. using the same single crochet stitches, only knitting occurs in the opposite direction. Stepping back two rows up, we decorate the bell with a border made of light green yarn. 
How to tie a bell tongue
In KA we cast on 6 tbsp, tighten all the loops into a ring. In the second row we make an increase in each column of the previous row, we get 12 loops. We knit the next two rows (3-4) with single crochets.
In the fifth row, we cut the loops 6 times, knitting two loops with one single crochet.
Next, reduce the loops to one. After knitting, we fasten the thread, cut it off and hide it inside the tongue. We attach a light green thread to the tongue. 
We insert a hook through the center of the bell, grab the thread from the tongue and thread it outward (we should get a loop). 
We tie a small knot at the base, then string an emerald bead and tie another knot on top. 
Crocheted interior items have not surprised anyone for a long time. Sofa cushions, napkins, panels or even vases have become quite common. However, the idea of creating bell-shaped Christmas decorations is relatively new. It is actively used in European countries, decorating their homes, Christmas trees, windows and doors. In addition, it will allow you to get a rather cute little present - an openwork bell - hook. The design of such products is not at all simple, but is accessible to most craftswomen.
Yarn for bells
For crocheting small items, a very thin one is suitable. In this case, it is advisable to choose mercerized cotton rather than crochet. This thread is treated with alkali, so it is frizz-free, smooth and has a tight twist.
The decor knitted from such material turns out to be very expressive. Otherwise, a hook will help you get a rather rough and too voluminous bell hook. The pattern is usually designed for the use of yarn with a thickness of about 550-600 m/100 grams. As a last resort, you can use material with a thread length of 450-500 m/100 grams.
Crochet bell: diagram and description
The photo shows a bell that is knitted as follows:
- Start working with a chain of 4 air loops (VP).
- 1 VP lift, 12 half-columns (PS). Half-crochet stitches are performed in the same way as double crochet stitches (DC), but the loop and yarn over are knitted together and not sequentially.
- 1 VP rise, 1 PS, 1 PS, 2 PS in one base loop (that is, double every third PS).
- 4 VP rise, 1 VP, double crochet stitch. Repeat the sequence (except for the lifting loops).
- 1 VP rise, 32 single crochets (SC). Repeat the row two more times.
- 1 VP lifting, 4 sc, 20 VP, 1 sc in the 5th VP, 5 VP, 4 sc. Repeat 7 times.
- 1 VP lift, 2 RLS, 6 RLS in a smaller arch, 8 RLS in a large arch, 2 VP, 8 RLS in a large arch, 6 RLS in a smaller arch. Sequence: 2 RLS, 6 RLS in a smaller arch, 4 RLS in a large arch, attach the petal to the middle of the nearest petal with a connecting column, 4 RLS in a large arch, 2 VP, 8 RLS in a large arch, 6 RLS in a smaller arch.
This method will help you make several identical hooks or one small bell hook; the pattern is not complicated, but skills in working with circular fabrics are required. The process can be simplified by knitting the petals without attaching them while knitting. They can be sewn after the product is ready.
Mount for decoration
To make it convenient to attach the bell to a spruce branch or to another holder, you need to tie a loop on top. The material used is the same thread that was used to knit the bell, as well as a satin or organza ribbon. In the photo, a crocheted plastic circle was sewn to the bell. It's very convenient and beautiful. You can tie a ribbon bow to the ring or simply put it on a branch.
Processing bells
In order for the finished product to hold its shape and perform its main function, it must be processed. With your own hands I created a knitted bell hook, the pattern and pattern do not matter, you need to put it on a cone made of thick cardboard prepared in advance. To prevent the paper from softening, you need to wrap it in plastic and only then put on the bell.
If the product has a shape other than a cone, then the base should be given a corresponding appearance. As an alternative, light bulbs, cups, shaped vases and other objects of suitable shape are used.
Having placed the bell on the mold, it is generously moistened with a solution of starch, PVA glue or gelatin. After complete drying, you get a durable and voluminous crochet New Year's bell. Pattern patterns with large holes can result in a very soft fabric. In this case, you can soak the product with the solution several times.
Winter is just around the corner, and with it the wonderful holidays - Christmas and New Year. Recently, decorating your home with handmade decor has become an extremely fashionable trend. If you want to decorate your home, make it festive, elegant and at the same time unique, crochet bells. The diagrams and descriptions that we will offer in this article will be an excellent help in creative work. We hope that even novice masters will not have any difficulties.
Beautiful crochet Christmas bells. Description for beginner knitters
Cute New Year's accessories decorate and transform the interior of any home on the eve of your favorite winter holidays and give you a great mood. Bells can be used to make magnificent Christmas tree decorations, colorful garlands or interesting decor for windows, doors and the fireplace area.
To complete these indispensable New Year's attributes, you will need to purchase the following tools and materials:
- hook No. 3.5;
- acrylic yarn with the addition of lurex or metallized polyester in a silver shade (YarnArt Gold, YarnArt Bright, etc.);
- scissors;
- white round beads with a fairly large hole;
- a needle with a wide eye;
- small bows made of satin ribbon.
Having prepared the necessary tools and materials, we begin crocheting a bell. The scheme of work is as follows. First, we make a magic ring, knit 6 single crochets (SC) into it and close the circle (SP) with a connecting loop.
At the beginning of the second row we make 1 VP (chain loop) and 1 RLS in the same base loop. In the second row we perform increases. In all remaining five loops of the base we knit 2 sc. We get 12 columns in a row. We close the joint venture in the first VP of the row.
In the third row we knit 1 VP, in the next loop we make *2 RLS, and then we knit 1 RLS*. We repeat the rapport *-* until the end of the row. By alternating 2 sc and 1 sc we get 18 loops. We close the row with SP.
We continue to work on Christmas bells
At the beginning of the fourth row we perform 1 VP. We knit 1 sc into each base loop and close the joint. We perform rows five, six, seven, eight by analogy with the fourth.
At the beginning of the ninth row we make 1 VP. In the next base loop we knit 2 sc. Then we knit 1 sc. Let's increase again. In the next loop we perform 2 sc. We continue to work according to this pattern until the end of the row. Thanks to the alternation of elements (2 sc - 1 sc) we end up with 27 loops. We close the joint venture.
In the tenth row we perform 1 VP. We knit 1 sc into each base loop. Close the joint, cut the thread and fasten it. Congratulations, you have crocheted your first bell. We also use this pattern to knit a second decorative element of the same type.
Finishing knitting New Year's decor
Now let's start making the bell tongue. We take a needle with a wide eye and thread through it a piece of thread that remains inside the bell after creating the amigurumi ring. We string one bead onto a thread and make a knot. We check that the bead holds well. Cut off the excess thread. The first tongue is ready, we perform the second by analogy.
We connect both bells with a thread, sewing and securing it from the inside, in the center of the arch. We decorate the product with a bow made of satin ribbons. That's it, we have crocheted beautiful Christmas bells! We hope there were no difficulties with the work schemes. I wish you creative success.
Openwork New Year's bells
We bring to your attention another simple and understandable diagram of a bell. The crocheted product turns out to be openwork and beautiful, and knits quickly and easily. Having made several of these bells, you can decorate the Christmas tree in an original way, using them instead of ordinary balls and Christmas tree decorations.
To work, you will need knitting threads of any color, a corresponding hook, and scissors. Having prepared the necessary tools, we begin crocheting a New Year's bell. The diagram is shown in the following figure.
We start with an amigurumi ring and 5 VP. Then we knit 1 C1H (double crochet) and 2 VP into the ring. We perform 5 more columns, between which we make 2 VPs. We close the first row of joint ventures into the third loop of the initial chain.
We knit the second row using the pattern: “2 C1H - 2 VP”. Please note: the columns should be made in arches from air loops of the previous row. We close the knitting using a connecting loop.
In the third row, we first move with connecting half-columns to the first VP of the previous row. Next, we perform 3 VP lifts, 1 C1H, 3 VP, 2 C1H. We knit all other arches using the pattern: 2 C1H - 3 VP - 2 C1H. We knit the fourth, fifth, sixth rows according to the pattern of the third.
In the seventh row, using SP, we move to the first C1H of the previous row. We make three lifting loops. In the first arch we knit 7 C1H. In all other arches we make 8 C1H. This way we form the lower, wider part of the bell. In the eighth row we tie the edge with single crochets. Don’t forget to do 1 VP at the beginning of the row, and SP at the end. We fasten the thread and cut it off.
We attach yarn to the top of the bell and make air loops until the lace reaches the desired length. Attach the edge of the chain to the bell, forming a loop.
Processing the product after knitting
To ensure that the finished bells keep their shape well, you can treat them with potato starch. To do this, dilute 1 or 2 tbsp in half a liter of water. l. potato starch. Next, you need to put the container with the solution on the fire and bring to a boil, stirring constantly, after which you need to let the thickened starch cool a little and saturate the bell with it. Be sure to squeeze out excess liquid. After impregnation, the workpiece must be pulled onto a suitable form (for example, a glass), straightened and allowed to dry completely. Thanks to these simple manipulations, the product will keep its shape perfectly.
Original crochet garland of bells
If you want to decorate your home on New Year's Eve, make it especially cute and cozy - crochet a garland of bells. The operation scheme is extremely simple, even a beginner can handle it. And the decoration itself turns out to be bright, stylish and very elegant. You can hang it on the Christmas tree, decorate the walls with it, or decorate the fireplace area.
To work, you will need cotton threads of different colors (density 175 g per 50 m), hook No. 2.5, scissors.
Description of the process of working on a garland of bells
Let's look at how to crochet bells. We present to your attention the diagram and description of the work. We start creating the first decorative element with a chain of 3 VPs, using a joint venture we connect it into a ring. We start the second row with three VPs, then we knit 10 double crochets into a ring (C2H). Rotate the workpiece.
We knit the third row like this. We collect 2 VP. For the leg of the nearest column of the previous row, we perform 3 double crochet stitches (C1H). We knit 2 C1H into the ring. We knit 4 C1H for the leg of the next column. The series is completed. We perform 2 VPs and turn the workpiece over.
In the fourth row we knit 1 C1H in each base loop. There will be 9 of them in total. Again we make 2 VPs and turn the part over. We do the fifth row by analogy with the fourth, at the end we again perform 2 VPs and turn.
In the sixth row, first knit 1 C1H in the same base loop (where the chain is from VP). Next we make increments. We knit 2 C1H into the base loop, and one at a time into the next 6. In the last two loops of the row we make 2 C1H. This way we get the necessary expansion of the canvas at the bottom of the future bell.
In the seventh row we make 1 VP and decorate the entire workpiece along the edge with single crochets (SC). Please note that when tying double crochets, you should perform 2 sc.
We are finishing work on the bell for a cozy garland
Having reached the middle of the lower part of the bell, we make a tongue. In one loop of the base we knit a combination of 1 half double crochet (HDC), 1 C1H and 1 C2H. In the next loop we knit these elements in the reverse order (first 1 C2H, then 1 C1H and 1 hdc). We get the tongue. We finish tying the bell with single crochets, close the knitting joint, fasten the thread and cut it off. The first bell is ready. By analogy, we knit the required number of similar parts and form a garland from them, connecting them with chains of air loops.

Knitted flowers are often used to decorate various knitted items and accessories. And in this MK Knitted Fairy Tale will tell you how to crochet bell flowers, which are perfect for decorating hats, panama hats and hats. Also, such flowers can be used as brooches and even decorate a Christmas tree for the New Year.
To knit bells we will need:
- (blue, blue and green);
- Hook;
- Beads;
- Needle.
For convenience, we will use the following abbreviations:
Air loop - V.p.
Single crochet - St.b.N.
Double crochet – S.S.N.
Double crochet stitch – Art.s.2N.
Half double crochet - Pst.s.N.
The process of crocheting bell flowers
First, we will make a sliding loop from blue threads.
And then we will knit twelve St.S.N. into it. The first such St.S.N will be replaced by three V.P. rise. 
In the new row we need to increase the number of loops. To do this, in every second loop we will knit two St.S.N.
Our knitting will begin to take shape. 
Now we need to knit four more rows, but we will no longer increase the number of columns. That is, there will be eighteen of them in each row. 
The top of the bell is ready. Now we need to expand the flower. And for this we will knit two St.S.N. in each loop. 
First we knit into a loop St.b.N. In the second we knit Pst.s.N. and St.S.N.
In the third we will perform St.s.N. and St.s.2N.
We knitted half a petal.
Then in the fourth loop we perform St.s.2H and St.s.N. In the fifth loop - S.s.N and Pst.s.N. And in the sixth and seventh loops we knit one St.b.N. 
And then we repeat knitting. We will get six petals. 
We break the thread and attach blue yarn between the petals.
Where in the previous row we knitted St.b.N., we will insert the hook from the side and under St.b.N. where we widened the bottom of the bell. 
And we will knit St.b.N. This will be our relief column. 
Let's move on to the greenery for the flower.
We knit the first two rows in the same way as we knitted the first two rows for the bell.
Next we make five v.p. And we knit St.b.N., Pst.s.N., two St.s.N. In the third loop at the base we will knit St.b.N. 
We continue knitting in circles. 
Now we string one bead on a blue thread and tie a large knot at the end. We need four or five such parts.
After which we pull them through the bell so that the beads are inside, and the threads are brought up. And we fix it.
Now we put the green part on the flower and sew it on. 
Sew two flowers together. And we knit a leaf. We dial nine V.p. And we knit further St.b.N., Pst.s.N., St.s.N., St.s.2N., St.s.N., Pst.s.N., St.b.N., connecting column.
Our bells are ready! Now that you know how to crochet bell flowers, you can crochet a whole bouquet
