Whispering Mushroom Ornament

This crochet mushroom was born from that feeling — a tiny keepsake of the forest you can make with your own hands. It’s a versatile design: * turn it into **an ornament to hang on your Christmas tree** or around the house, filling your space with woodland charm. * or add a clasp and use it **as a bag charm**, carrying a sprinkle of forest magic with you wherever you go. What I love most about this pattern is that every mushroom turns out a little different, just like in nature — no two are ever the same. With a simple shape, it invites you to play with colors and textures, making each creation unique and personal. This mushroom is more than a small crochet piece — it’s a reminder of the forest, of slow walks, and of the joy found in the tiniest details. I hope, as you crochet it, you’ll feel that same gentle sense of wonder and connection to nature. **SKILL LEVEL:** Easy **YARN:** I used: [Drops Safran][1] **CROCHET HOOK:** [2.5 mm (B)][2] [Embroidery needles][3] [Stitch markers][4] [Scissors][5] [Poly Fill (stuffing)][6] **SIZE:** If a 2.5mm crochet hook is used, your personalized mushroom will be approximately 9 cm tall (about 3.5 inches tall). You can use the same pattern to make smaller or larger mushroom by using thinner or thicker yarn. **NOTES**: * No-sew project * I used the X-shaped single crochet stitch (to do is ‘yarn under your hook’ instead of ‘yarn over’). **Abbreviations** *Written in U.S. Crochet terms* **mr** - magic ring **ch** - chain **sc** - single crochet **sl st** - slip stitch **st(s)** - stitch(es) **rnd** - round **rep** - repeat **inc** - increase **dec** - decrease **sp sc** - single crochet spike stitch **{…} x …** – stitches to be repeated x … times **(…)** – total stitches at the end of the round **PDF pattern is included:** * Detailed, written instructions * Clear photos * Tips and tricks for perfect results * PDF format for easy reference * [Video tutorial][7] * Printer-Friendly instructions **Safety Note:** This ornament is made of yarn, which can be sensitive to heat. When placing it on a Christmas tree with electrical lights, keep it away from heat sources and avoid leaving the tree unattended. Let’s be friends on Social Media!
