In Round 3:
- 1 sc in the first stitch, 2 sc in the next repeat around (9 sc total).
Round 4:
- 1 sc in the first 2 stitches, 2 sc in the next repeat around (12 sc total).
Working in Back Loops Only for Garland Design:
Round 5:
- Back Loops Only - 1 sc in each stitch around.
Round 6:
- 1 sc in the first 3 stitches, 2 sc in the next repeat around (15 sc total).
Continuing Tree Shape:
Round 7:

Decreasing for the Tree Trunk:
Round 11:

- Round 12:
- Change to brown yarn in the last stitch of the round and continue with 1 sc in the first stitch, then decrease over the next 2 stitches repeat around.
Stem / Trunk:
- Work rounds with sc to create the stem's height, working in the color change to brown yarn.
Finishing Touches:
White Garland:
- Using white yarn, work reverse single crochets around the front loops left from previous rounds creating the garland.
Star:
- With yellow yarn, create a star by making a magic circle, then creating points with slip stitches and fastening off with a long tail to sew on top.
Ornaments:

Blush:

Eyes & Smile:

Assembly:

Adding Loop for Hanging:
