About This Crochet Landscape Rings Pattern
This pattern creates delicate Crochet Landscape Rings using Scheepjes Sugar Rush yarn and basic double crochet rounds. You will make a small tubular ring about 20mm in diameter using three color bands and finish with simple embroidered details. The technique is straightforward and great for testing color palettes and tiny surface embroidery.
Perfect for gifting or wearing alone or stacked, these rings are quick to crochet and require minimal materials. The pattern includes instructions for beach, city, and woodland colour suggestions and small embroidery ideas.
Why You'll Love This Crochet Landscape Rings Pattern
I absolutely love this pattern because it takes just a few simple stitches and turns them into a charming, wearable miniature landscape. I enjoy how quick the rings are to make, letting me try different colour combinations in one sitting. The embroidery step lets me add personality and tiny details that make each ring unique and personal. I find these are perfect last-minute gifts or a lovely way to use up small yarn scraps. Making them is relaxing and immediately rewarding.
Switch Things Up
I love changing the colour palette to match seasons; try soft pastels for spring or deep jewel tones for a rich winter look.
I often make the rings larger or smaller by adjusting the starting chain length — increasing chains for a bigger ring and decreasing for a smaller fit.
Using a sport or fingering weight yarn with a slightly larger hook creates a squishier, chunkier ring while preserving the landscape bands.
I like to experiment with metallic or variegated yarns for the top band to add subtle shimmer or movement to the design.
Try embroidering different motifs: tiny houses, waves, or stars instead of birds to change the theme of the ring.
I sometimes add a tiny bead or sequin on the top band before embroidery for a little sparkle and texture.
For a more rustic look, use thicker embroidery thread and longer trunk stitches to mimic bark or fence lines across the band.
Make matching sets in different palettes and stack them on one finger to create a layered landscape effect that tells a story.
Turn a ring into a pendant by leaving a longer yarn tail and attaching a jump ring through the tube, then add a chain for a mini landscape necklace.
I also like to mix techniques: combine simple surface slip stitches with the embroidered details to outline buildings or create horizon lines for extra definition.
Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them
✗ Twisting the foundation chain can prevent joining into a proper ring and distort the shape; ensure the chain lays flat before joining and double-check for twists before slip-stitching the first round.
✗ Not counting your starting chain accurately will change the finished diameter; count 20 chains for the recommended 20mm diameter and increase or decrease evenly if you need a different size.
✗ Pulling your tension too tight when working double crochet rounds can make the ring too stiff to wear comfortably; use a relaxed, consistent tension and adjust hook size if needed.
✗ Skipping the colour change notes can create messy joins between bands; switch colours at the end of the indicated round and carry or fasten off tidy tails to weave in later.
✗ Failing to weave in ends before embroidery can lead to loose threads under stitches; weave in and secure yarn tails before adding embroidered details to keep the surface neat.
