Celtic Triquetra Crochet Snowflake
The Celtic Triquetra Crochet Snowflake is an intricate and eye-catching ornament that is surprisingly simple to make. This project uses only basic crochet stitches and a small amount of Size 10 cotton crochet thread. For the past several years I have created a new Celtic Knot snowflake at Christmastime and I am carrying on the “tradition” this year with this new snowflake design!

6 Trinity Knots Made with One Crocheted Cord!
This Celtic Snowflake Pattern uses basic crochet stitches. For this project you would need to know how to do: chain, slip stitch, and single crochet – that’s it! If you’ve never worked with Size 10 thread before, you could practice this pattern with medium weight yarn and a size 5mm hook to help you get the hang of the stitches before you crochet with the thin thread and small hook.

Supplies Needed for this Celtic Crochet Snowflake
This Celtic Triquetra Crochet Snowflake uses a small amount of Size 10 cotton crochet thread and an even smaller amount of some silver metallic embroidery thread. I love how the white and silver look together. I also think that you could make this Celtic snowflake pattern in a variety of colors for different looks. The thread is very thin so that does take some getting used to. I recommend using the Clover crochet hooks (they have a silicone handle that helps your hand to feel its best while crocheting with the thread) and a good light (or bright sunlight shining in through a window). These things help my snowflake turn out the best and they help me to enjoy the process the most!
As stated above this Celtic Crochet Snowflake Pattern uses a very small amount of supplies. I love that I can create something so pretty out of a few yards of thread from my stash! I highly recommend the metallic thread by DMC – it comes in silver and gold and adds great highlights to thread crochet projects.
Here is a list of all of the supplies I used for my snowflake:
(Click on the supply name to see photos or to purchase via affiliate links)
Hook: 1.5 mm by Clover
Other Supplies: 12 stitch markers; Embroidery needle; Cork board (8” square); 20-30 straight sewing pins; Hot glue gun and glue sticks; Fabric stiffener (or white glue); 8” x 8” square of aluminum foil; 30 Rust-proof pins (for stiffening)

Make the Celtic Snowflake Pattern Today!
If you have worked with thread before, then you definitely could make this snowflake in an afternoon. I usually work on my snowflake projects in stages – one day I make the cords and sometimes wet block them overnight, the next day I weave the knots and then the day after that I add the edging stitches and stiffen the snowflake. It’s so fun to have your own little “reveal” once the stiffener has dried!
Remember, you can purchase this pattern here in my Etsy Shop here – hurry, it’s on sale for the next few days only!
