From decor to accessories, these crochet crosses are going to look amazing no matter what your plan is for them. Plus, they’re easy enough to work up that you could give them to everyone you know!

Most of these patterns use a variety of basic crochet stitches, so make sure that you know how to work a single crochet stitch, double crochet stitch, and slip stitch (sl st). Since these great patterns won’t take a long time to complete, your cute crochet cross is just a few steps away!

Crochet Rosary Pattern

As a Catholic Christian, I’ve been really enjoying praying the rosary lately and reflecting on Jesus’s life during my prayer meditation. A crochet rosary is a great way to work on the gospel through crochet. Not only so you have a stunning crochet piece at the end that can be passed through your family, but it’s also a great way to grow closer to the faith.
