Create my beautiful, handmade Chastity Angel with this free crochet pattern. Standing at 6.25 inches tall and 3.5 inches wide, this angel makes a lovely decor piece. Made using Medium Weight Yarn and a 4 mm crochet hook, she stands on her own. You’ll find this pattern and many more in my Oombawka Angel Collection, featuring over 20 free crochet angel patterns.
Furls sent me some luxurious Whims Merino Crochet Yarn to make Chastity. This yarn has sadly been discontinued but like all my Crochet Angel Patterns you can simply substitute your favorite Worsted Weight Yarn, like Red Heart Super Saver for this project and use your 4 mm (G) crochet hook.
Chastity is crocheted with Medium Weight Yarn and a 4 mm (G) hook. Like my other crochet Angels, she does not require stiffening to stand and can be crocheted in only a few short hours.
Options for your Finished Angel
Easily stitch the hands together to make your angel ‘pray’ or give her something to hold in her hands.
Add hair to her head if you’d like!
Stitch a bell under her skirt, or add a ribbon to her back (above her wings) to make her an ornament for your tree.
Add a handmade paper (or plastic) cone under her skirt to help her stay in shape on the top of your Christmas Tree.
Chastity a Crochet Angel Pattern
Supplies
Yarn: Whims Merino (3.5 oz/100 g; 103 yds/94 m), 100% acrylic. Medium Weight Yarn [4]. Color: White. My finished angel used
6.25 inches tall (not including the halo), 3.5 inches wide when flattened and measuring the width of the skirt
Gauge
Not imperative but if your stitches have spaces between them that you can see through you need to go down a hook size (or two) until you are crocheting a more solid fabric.
You can substitute any yarn and hook for this stitch pattern – just remember when you substitute if your gauge is different, the finished size, and amount of yarn used for your project will also be different.
I demonstrated how to make one of my other Crochet Angel Patterns (Patience) in a full length YouTube Video Pattern Tutorial. You can view the video tutorial for the arms, wings pattern 2 and halo here:
You are beginning at the top of the Angel’s head and working in continuous rounds to the base of the dress, all in one piece.
Using your 4 mm (G) hook (or size required for gauge) and leaving an 8-10 inch yarn tail:
R1: Work 6 sc in a DMR. [6 sc]
R2: 2 sc in each sc around. [12 sc]
R3: *2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in the next st**. Rep from * to ** around. [18 sc]
R4-R6: 1 sc in each st around. [18 sc]
R7: *Sc2tog over the next 2 sts, 1 sc in the next st**. Rep from * to ** around. [12 sc]
I recommend you firmly stuff the head at this point.
R8: Sc2tog around. [6 sc]
R9: 1 FPsc in each st around. [6 FPsc]
R10: 1 sc and 1 FPsc in each st around. [6 sc, 6 FPsc]
R11: 1 sc in the first st, 2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in each of the next 5 sts, 2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in each of the next 4 sts. [14 sc]
R12: 1 sc in the first st, ch 3, sk 2 sts, 1 sc in each of the next 5 sts, ch 3, sk 2 sts, 1 sc in each of the next 4 sts. [10 sc, 2 ch3sp]
R13: 1 sc in the first st, 1 sc in the bl of each of the next 3 chs, 1 sc in each of the next 5 sts, 1 sc in the bl of each of the next 3 chs, 1 sc in each of the next 4 sts [16 sc]
R14-R15: 1 sc in each st around [16 sc]
R16: 1 BPsc in each st around. [16 BPsc]
R17: *(1 sc and 1 dc) in the next st, 1 sc in the next st, 1 dc in the next st**. Rep from * to ** 5 times. (1 sc and 1 dc) in the last st. [11 sc and 11 dc]
R18-R19: *1 sc in the next st, 1 dc in the next st**. Rep from * to ** around. [11 sc and 11 dc]
R20: (1 sc and 1 dc) in each of the first 2 sts. *1 sc in the next st, 1 dc in the next st**. Rep from * to ** around. [12 sc and 12 dc]
R21-R22: *1 sc in the next st, 1 dc in the next st**. Rep from * to ** around. [12 sc and 12 dc]
R23: (1 sc and 1 dc) in each of the first 2 sts. *1 sc in the next st, 1 dc in the next st**. Rep from * to ** around. [13 sc and 13 dc]
R24-R25: *1 sc in the next st, 1 dc in the next st**. Rep from * to ** around. [13 sc and 13 dc]
R26: (1 sc and 1 dc) in each of the first 2 sts. *1 sc in the next st, 1 dc in the next st**. Rep from * to ** around. [14 sc and 14 dc]
R27-R28: *1 sc in the next st, 1 dc in the next st**. Rep from * to ** around. [14 sc and 14 dc]
R29: 1 FPsc in each st around. Finish off with an invisible join and weave in ends. [14 sc and 14 dc]
Arms
Make 1.
The arm is created in one piece; worked flat and then seamed on the long edges with a slip stitch seam. Once the arm is complete you thread it through the openings on either side of the angel’s body, being sure to keep an equal amount of “arm” on each side. You can whipstitch these in place if you wish – I did not. I simply used 2 small stitches to attach the hands together in a “prayer” pose.
R1: Ch 21, beg in 2nd ch from hook and work 1 sc in each across, ch 1, turn [20]
R2: 1 sc in each st across, ch 1, turn [20]
Fold the rectangle in half and seam the long edges using a slip stitch seam. Finish off and weave in any remaining ends.
Wings
Make 2.
R1: Work ch 3 (counts as 1 dc), 2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc in a DMR. Turn. [5 dc, ch2sp]
R2: Ch 4 (counts as 1 tr) and 2 tr in the first st, 2 dc in the next st, 3 hdc in the ch2sp, 1 hdc in the next st, 1 sl st in each of the next 2 sts. Ch 1, turn. [3 tr, 2 dc, 4 hdc, 2 sl st]
R3: Sk the first sl st, 1 sc in each of the next 5 sts, 1 hdc in the next st, 1 dc in each of the next 2 sts, 2 tr in the next st and 1 dtr in the next st, (the ch 4 at the beg of R2). Ch 1, turn. [1 dtr, 2 tr, 2 dc, 1 hdc, 5 sc]
R4: 1 sl st in each st and around the row edge back to the DMR. Finish off. [15 sl st]
To attach the wings use a whip stitch and position them in the center at the base of her neck.
Halo
The Halo is made using a 2.25 mm (B) hook and Gold (or silver) Bowdabra Bow Wire.
What is Bowdabra Bow Wire? This is a thin piece of wire wrapped in gold metallic thread. I found mine at Michael’s in the ribbon section. It can stand on its own which is why I like it – and it is much thinner than pipe-cleaner (which was what I had been considering).
I crocheted the halo like this:
Ch 20, finish off leaving a tail of the bow wire. Now take the tail and thread it through the 7th chain from the opposite end. This will create the halo loop. Now twist (like a twist-tie) the two remaining ends together to make it straight and stiff. Take that one end (since you twisted them together you have one wire now) and thread it through the back of the angel’s head and down to the base of the neck before cutting off any of the excess wire. If you want to dab a bit of fabric glue in there to keep it in place you can.
