Decoration

Work sc into the front loops. For the white trim, use Alize Bella yarn and a 1.25 mm hook.

When working with Alize Bella yarn, hold the tree with the top pointing toward you and begin in the last stitch of Round 21, skipping the topmost round of front loops. After completing a round, skip the next round and continue in every other round, leaving alternating rounds of front loops unworked. Leave the final round unworked as well.

For the metallic trim, use a 1.6 mm hook.

When working with metallic yarn, hold the tree with the top pointing away from you and begin in the first stitch of Round 8, skipping the lowest round of front loops. After completing a round, skip the next round and continue in every other round. Work all the way to the top.

Fasten off and weave in all ends. Attach the lobster clasp to the top, and your little Christmas tree keychain is ready!
