Featured Patterns in our Make-Along for Festive Knitted and Crocheted Christmas Decorations

I have a delightful selection of Christmas decoration patterns that you can choose from. Here are a few highlights:

• Charmed Garland (Crochet): This charming garland is perfect for adding a whimsical touch to your holiday decor. It’s about 5 feet long with a sweet gingerbread family as the focus and can feature multiple colours for a vibrant look. Additionally all nine charms the garland includes are available as individual patterns that make cute tree decorations for those who don't want to make the whole thing. Get it on Ravelry or on Etsy

  
  

• Charmed Garland (Knit): Prefer knitting? This version of the garland offers the same festive appeal while showcasing your knitting skills. Get it on Ravelry or on Etsy

  
  

• Fragrant Fir Tree Sachets: These knitted sachets not only look cute but also fill your home with the delightful scent of the filling. Fill them with dried lavender or pine needles for a cosy touch. Get it on Ravelry or on Etsy

  
  

• Vivid Bauble Tree Ornament: These vibrant crocheted ornaments are a beautiful addition to any tree, with each bauble featuring a bold ribbon bow interwoven with the stitches. Get it on Ravelry or as part of the Vivid Winter Collection on Etsy

Additionally, you can use any of my other patterns to create whatever you consider to be festive decorations for this time of year, so don't feel left out if you don't celebrate Christmas or if you don't like traditional style decorations; I'd love to hear about how you're decorating for your Winter celebrations.

For example, if you take a look at my blog, you'll see lots of other options. The Last Minute Crochet Flower Garland is a really quick, FREE stash-buster and can feature your favourite festive colours. You could work up the charm from the Day at the Beach Bag as a stunning mini Christmas wreath using green and red yarn. The Firework Crochet Pendant, Cloth, or Coaster is another FREE pattern that is perfect for those who love New Year firework displays and Tunisian crocheters might like to follow the FREE Mermaid Bow Band pattern to complement their festive decorations or embellish their gift-wrapping. A lot of my patterns are really flexible so the possibilities are truly endless!

How to Participate

Getting involved in the make-along is simple and fun! Here’s how you can join:

1. Sign Up for the Newsletter: Make sure you’re subscribed to my newsletter to receive the free pattern access code on November 11th.

   
   

2. Choose Your Pattern: Take a look at my collection of Christmas decoration patterns on Ravelry, my Website or on Etsy and select the one (or more!) you’d like to create.

   
   

3. Start Crafting: Gather your yarn, needles, and hooks, and start making your decorations.

   
   

4. Share Your Finished Makes: Don't forget to share your progress on social media or Ravelry! I love seeing how things are going. I'll automatically see photos added to projects that you've linked to my patterns on Ravelry but you'll need to tag me in your social media posts. I also have a make-along discussion thread set up in the Made with Love and Fibres Ravelry Group where you can discuss your makes with others in the Make-along. Once you've completed your project, share photos of your finished objects too. Each post counts as an entry into the prize draw for an eBook!
