Repeat this sequence 6 times in total around the circle.

(Total: 18 stitches)
Round 4: Snowflake Points (Petals)
Each snowflake point uses exactly 3 stitches from Round 3 to create a sculpted petal.
Work the following sequence 6 times around:
First stitch: Work 1 sl st, then 1 hdc into the same stitch.
Second stitch: Work 1 dc, 1 tr, and 1 dc all into the same stitch (this forms the pointed tip).
Third stitch: Work 1 hdc, then 1 sl st into the same stitch.
After completing all 6 points:
Sl st into the very first stitch to close the round.
Ch 1, cut the yarn leaving a 10 cm tail, and pull through.
Thread the yarn tail onto a tapestry needle and weave it securely into the back of the work.
Flatten and gently pull each of the 6 points outward to shape your snowflake base.
Embroidering the Snowflake Design
Thread a tapestry needle with a generous length of cream or white yarn. Secure the yarn on the back of the snowflake, then embroider each of the 6 points using the following 3-step branching method:
Lower “V” Branch:
Bring the needle up through the center of the petal just above Round 2.
Make a small diagonal stitch outward to the left edge of the petal, then bring the needle back and make a symmetrical diagonal stitch to the right edge. This forms a small “V” shape pointing outward.
Upper “V” Branch:
Move slightly higher up toward the tip of the petal.
Embroider a second, slightly wider “V” shape spanning across the upper half of the petal.
Central Spine Line:
Bring the needle up at the very top tip of the petal (at the peak of the treble crochet).
Make a long, straight vertical stitch straight down through the center of the petal, passing directly between both “V” shapes, and insert the needle down into the central magic ring hole.
Pull the yarn gently taut so the central spine anchors the branches in place.
Repeat this embroidery pattern across all 6 points of the snowflake.
Finishing
Turn the snowflake over to the back.
Tie a small, secure knot with the embroidery yarn and weave in the end neatly under the back stitches.
Trim any excess thread.
(Optional) Attach a jump ring and a mini phone strap or keychain cord to the top of one point.
Your miniature crocheted snowflake charm is now complete!
