Every year I crochet a bunch of snowflake ornaments and send them to friends and family. This year I experimented with rings, which I think turned out great!

Wow, that looks gorgeous!

I would love to try something like this myself. Do you know of any patterns or instructions I could use to start with?

I have a Christmas snowflake pattern book. I did a few but mine always looked a little limp. It’s inspired me to take another look…and buy some starch

They are all flat I think, not 3D and as detailed as the OPs. But is a starting point.

Thanks for passing that along! I'll definitely pull from that next year. And I would definitely recommend starch!

This snowflake is a modified version of this pattern: https://www.etsy.com/listing/903188791/lorewoven-snowflakes-crochet-pattern-3

I really like her patterns in general. I've also found many textured or 3D snowflake diagrams on Pinterest. Those are often a bit harder to interpret and you may have to take some creative liberty with them.

I know I'm being really late in writing this, but I just wanted to thank both you and @DerEntenjager@feddit.nl for replying and giving some links. I really appreciate it.
