Instructions:

Start with a Magic Ring
R1: 12 double crochets (dc) in the magic ring. Finish with a slip stitch (sl st) in the 3rd chain (ch).

R2: 2 dc in each dc (5 times), which will give you a total of 10 dc. Turn over. If you’d like a sparkling effect for the wings, take the yarn off and replace it with glistening silver yarn.

R3: 2 dc in each dc (10 times), which will give you a total of 20 dc. The last 2 dc should be worked into the 3rd ch from Row 2. Turn over.

R4: (1 dc, ch 1) in each dc (20 dc total). The wings are now finished, and you can change yarn to continue with the next steps.

Form the Angel’s Wings
R5: Start in the 7th 1ch (previous row’s right side facing you). [2 dc, ch 1, 2 dc] in the same 1ch, skip 1ch. Repeat this [ ] until you have 4 groups. Turn over.

R6: Ch 3, [2 dc, ch 1, 2 dc] in every 1ch. Repeat [ ] and finish this row with 1 dc in the last dc from the previous row. Turn over.

R7: Repeat Row 6.

Complete the Angel’s Halo and Details

R9: 1 sl st in the 1ch. [4 dc in the 1ch, 1 sc in the sc from the previous row]. Repeat this [ ] across the row. Once finished, take the yarn off and attach any wires as needed to give your angel structure.

Final Touches:
Once your angel is complete, it’s time to strengthen and block the creation to give it a crisp and polished finish. Using wire to carefully shape the wings and the body can help your angel hold its shape, ensuring it maintains a beautiful and sturdy structure. Afterward, you can block it to get the perfect look, with the wings and halo delicately spread out.

Your Guardian Angel Christmas ornament is now ready to grace your holiday season with its sparkle and charm. This pattern is a great way to make personalized gifts, tree decorations, or even just a keepsake to remind you of the magic of Christmas. The glistening silver wings add a touch of extra beauty, making it a perfect fit for any festive setting. Enjoy creating this magical angel and have a joyful holiday season!
