Part 2: Second Section of the Tree

• Mark 5 stitches from the right and 5 stitches from the left. Work the next section in these 6 stitches.

Row 17:

• Single crochet in each of the 6 marked stitches, starting with a chain one. You’ll have 8 stitches due to increases at the ends.

Row 18 – 27:

• Continue as with the first part, increasing every other row until you reach 18 stitches in row 27.

Border and Finishing Touches:

• Crochet a border starting from the point where both parts are joined, single crochet evenly around the entire piece. Include 1 chain and 1 single crochet at each corner to maintain the shape.
• For the steam, start with a magic ring and crochet 8 single crochets into the ring. Then, make 7 or 8 rounds of 1 single crochet in every stitch. Apply stuffing as needed.
• Sew the steam onto the top of the tree, ensuring to align and fasten securely.

Assembly:

• Stitch both parts of the tree together, focusing on sewing through the back loops (or middle loops) for a seamless join. Gradually stuff the tree as you close the gap, ensuring a balanced shape.
