Some optional supplies that can come in very handy include a project bagto hold your WIP (work in progress), scissors, a pom pom maker, buttons, leather accentsand, my personal mandatory, the movie Love Actually. More Christmas Crochet Patterns Here’s the pattern for the Silent Night yarn, first of all. It’s called Comet, as all of the patterns are named after Father Christmas’s reindeer (I told you I would explain!). Oh, I could see it in my mind’s eye immediately – a dark night with a bright star above a stable. Shades of blue and silver; a thousand images from a childhood growing up with Christmas traditions and stories. Can you see it too? Anna is the last of Sam’s “visitors.” She works for a delivery company and comes and goes bringing and delivering boxes.

Transform plain paper plates into festive faces! Great for toddlers and older kids too. This cool design from Easy Peasy and Fun uses buttons for eyes and rosy cheeks, white glitter, paint and glue. Or why not combine 3 plates to make a snowman body? We also love this reindeer design too! 4.

1. Paper snowflakes

Carole is the new employee, just starting to work the day before Christmas. She loves the idea of working at a place she’s always revered. It’s also not striped, or rather, not striped in the same way as the others. The lines are much more subtle and I think it makes a lovely change.

West Yorkshire Spinners have definitely got some kind of magic going in their dye house and they create amazing stripes! I think stripy yarns are the best sort of yarns to knit – perfect for pulling you along as you work “just one more colour”, and Gingerbread is no different. Making DIY Christmas ornaments is a wonderful way to spread the holiday spirit. Share them as Christmas gifts, donate them to a charity, or hang them on the tree to enjoy for your own Christmas decor. There have been stripy yarns, sparkly yarns, and one where the colours of a Winter’s night sky blended together … oh, the thought that goes into these yarns and the care and attention to keeping this yarny tradition going … it’s no wonder WYS are my favourite yarn company! You can read about last year’s colour here, and the previous years’ colours here. Wow – that was quite a brief, but it meant that I could really exercise my imagination with the designs and I loved that! I thought long and hard about what patterns could work for all kinds of occasions and still be easy enough for everyone to knit because you know I’m all about patterns for everyone to have a go at! I hope you’ll like what I’ve come up with! Dancer is knitted in the new sparkly Fairy Lights yarn. Oh what fun this was to create! I spent a long time searching for just the right stitch to evoke the idea of fairy lights but without all the tangled cables and testing each bulb to see that they worked!This Christmas paper plate angel is so cute! Great for slightly older kids, it takes under an hour to make and will look pretty placed at the top of your tree for all to see afterwards. 8. Pretty pine cone ornaments Papercraft snowflakes are the perfect way to craft up some Christmas magic! So easy, it’s a wonderful project for all ages. All you need is some white or silver paper, a pencil and scissors. Add some glitter for extra shimmer! Whether you’re using a template like these gorgeous designs from The Printables Fairy or precut snowflakes that your little ones can then decorate and collage, like these bejewelled makes by Fun Learning For Kids, there are so many ways to let it snow! 2.
