Crochet Bell Pattern
Add the perfect festive touch to your Christmas decor with this sweet crochet bell pattern.
It’s day 2 of the 12 Days of Crochet Christmas! I’m definitely a less is more kind of person and I love the simplicity of this bell.
About the Pattern
This crochet bell pattern is quick and easy.
The bell is worked in a continuous spiral finished off with a scalloped edging and features an optional jingle bell inside making it extra festive.
You might recognise the bow from last years event as I used it for my lollipop ornament. I couldn’t resist using it again here – it’s the perfect finishing touch.

Tie the ends in a knot at the back and leave them for sewing the bow to the bell.
