Franklin The Fir Tree
"Franklin the Fir Tree is a beginner sherpa yarn pattern. The finished crochet tree measures 7” tall and 5” wide. Adding a face to the tree is optional. Keep an eye on your stitch count and feel for your stitches. Sherpa yarn can be hard to work with. The stitches can be difficult to see, but with this free Christmas tree crochet pattern, it’s easy to feel the stitches since we will be using an 8.00mm crochet hook."
