Crocheting is a great way to unwind, relax and tap into your creative side. It’s also a lot of fun to make cute and whimsical items like crochet ice cream cones. The best part? You can make them in your favourite ice cream flavour and colour!
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to make your very own crochet ice cream cone.
Materials:
- Yarn (in your favourite ice cream flavour and colour)
- Crochet hook (appropriate for the size of your yarn)
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
- Stitch marker (optional)
Instructions:
Step 1: Make the cone Using the yarn and hook, start by making the cone. Start with a magic circle, chain three, and then make 11 double crochets in the circle. Slip stitch to the top of the first double crochet to close the round. Chain 2 and then make two double crochets in each stitch around. Slip stitch to the top of the first double crochet to close the round. Repeat this process until the cone is the desired length.
Step 2: Make the ice cream scoop Next, make the ice cream scoop. Using the yarn and hook, start with a magic circle, chain two and then make six single crochets in the circle. Slip stitch to the top of the first single crochet to close the round. Chain 1 and then make two single crochets in each stitch around. Slip stitch to the top of the first single crochet to close the round. Repeat this process until the scoop is the desired size.
Step 3: Join the cone and scoop To join the cone and scoop, place the scoop on top of the cone and use the yarn needle to stitch it in place.
Step 4: Add the details Using a different coloured yarn, make a small circle for the cherry on top. You can also make a small loop on top of the cherry to create a place to hang your crochet ice cream cone. Use the yarn needle to stitch the cherry in place.
And voila! You now have your very own crochet ice cream cone.
