The Christmas Tree is square number 2 of 9 total squares that are going to make up a Crochet Christmas Character Afghan! You can find Square #1 (Santa!) HERE. As I finish each square, I will post the graph and reveal the next character/image in the blanket. Feel free to work along with me! After all the squares are complete I will sew them together and add a border. By Christmas (but hopefully soon before) we will have ourselves a fun holiday themed afghan!
I am using the corner-to-corner (C2C) technique. You can see my first C2C graphgan HERE that has a how-to video. But I am told that most people have success learning how to make a C2C graphgan by following THIS VIDEO DEMONSTRATION by The Crochet Crowd.
Each pixel graph in my blanket is 25×25 pixel squares. I used a size F (3.75mm) hook and worsted weight yarn. For this particular square I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Kelly Green for the background, Fern Green for the tree, Scarlet red for the garland, Mustard yellow and Colonial Blue for the lights, and Honey for the trunk. You will want to get two skeins of both green colors and one for the rest of the elements.
You will begin to notice that a lot of the colors will repeat and be consistent/coordinating throughout all 9 squares. If you are using the same yarn I am, you may want to stock up on Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Kelly Green, Fern Green, Dusty Green, Scarlet Red, Honey, Toffee, Mustard yellow, Little Boy Blue, Black, White, Pink, Cranberry (dark red), Fisherman or Beige, and Terracotta orange.
VERY IMPORTANT: Instead of the traditional C2C method of using DC’s and chain 3’s to make each pixel, I used HDC’s and only chained 2 (and chained 5 instead 6 on the increase stitches). This allowed me to have a smaller overall afghan square, measuring approximately 15×15 inches. You can absolutely use the traditional method but your square will be much larger and your overall afghan will be much larger as well once you sew them all together. As is, my finished blanket will be big enough for a twin size bed… possibly even larger!
When you finish the graph you will want to make a nice SC border around the entire square. Make SC+chain2+ SC in each corner.
You do not have to use the C2C method either! You can take this graph and make a standard SC graphgan. This will produce nice small squares (think 25 single crochets wide and tall) that will be perfect for a standard size blanket. You could also make Pixel Granny Squares and use the graphs I post to create separate character blankets. There is also the Bobble Stitch method as well! So many ways to use these graphs!

I am not familiar with "Use the ends to your advantage by "faking stitches".
What does this mean? How is it done?
take a look here:
http://repeatcrafterm.wpengine.com/2015/09/crochet-elf-pixel-square.html
there is a video, it may help you!
This is lovely! I am very tempted to make it for Christmas. Thank you for sharing your hard work.
Ah!!! That's how you connected everything. Thanks for the faking stitches tip! That's exactly what I needed
I love this and want to make the afghan but I am not familiar with "faking stitches". Can anyone tell me how that is done?
RE: Faking Stitches – I think what she means is that as you're weaving in your ends, use the tails to cover over any gaps left behind. I am currently making a heart (just the outline, not a filled in heart) using this method and I have a boat load of gaps due to the way the diagonal lies and the colors change. Therefore, I will not just hide my tails, I will use the tails to fill in those spaces to make it look like its continuous. I hope that makes sense (and I hope that was what she was intending!).
And to Sarah and Jennifer – I am so grateful for the written out instructions. I did that with the heart graph I'm working on and I can tell you it is very convenient and thoughtful of you to give us those counts in advance. Thank you!!!
Thank you for providing the green print friendly link for downloading!
If we want to use the same colors you are for the entire blanket, how many of each should we buy?

Finished the first two. How often do you post. Ready for #3. LOL. Can’t wait!!!
So beautiful! These squares are lovely, I can’t wait to see all of them 😉
P.S. I LOVE the new site design!
How much yarn of each color do we need to have?
I like the idea of the written pattern, but when I did the tree it all went crooked…is there a mistake in the written pattern…just asking.
Can anyone explain how to change colours on this pattern. Should I trim and then weave in threads afterwards or follow the colour change video. The latter doesn’t seem to work.
Newbie C2C and pixel.
THANK YOU I have been seeing finished pics and don’t have the time to decipher square by square. I have a brand new(4 days) grandson I need to make this for
When will #3 be posted?
would love to get the rest of these pixels. Reindeer for sure. Was getting but for some reason haven’t gotten the rest. Please send me the one for the reindeer. Thanks.
It should be in this post: http://repeatcrafterm.wpengine.com/2015/09/crochet-christmas-character-afghan.html
