A soft crochet Christmas start

Excuse me, will you, for being such an early bird. I started crochet snowstars from white cotton yarn, and suddenly I found myself in Christmas land.

If you like to crochet you probably have some patterns for tablecloth that are built up by plenty of motif that look really good on their own. Crochet one motif adding a chain loop after the finishing, and you have a pretty ornament for the X-mas tree.

I tried to crochet one motif in metallic yarn which made the motif a bit larger, and found that some of the beads I had at home fitted perfectly in the middle circle for some of the motifs. I also crochet plenty of white cotton motifs in different shapes to pin on our wine red living room curtains, representing snow stars that are said to all be different. That is also one way for me to use all of the patterns I have, I don't have any use for a dozen crochet mini place mats...
