Affordable Handmade Holiday Gift Ideas

It’s that time of year again when makers everywhere begin reconciling their calendars with their handmade plans! Well, at least me anyways. I think my problem is that I keep thinking Christmas falls on December 25 and that I have so much time. But then I forget that I have to ship stuff to people and then there’s the busy-ness of the season that interferes with making time! So, if we’re going to be making a handmade holiday gift for our loved ones, we’d better get going!

So, what are we making, friends? I don’t know about you, but the greed-flation of billionaires and their big corporations is taking its toll on my budget. So how about we throw some support to some fellow independent makers? Grab a couple of handmade holiday gift patterns and make them for a bunch of people you love!

You can buy a pattern for under $10 and make it as many times as you like. You can make it in as many different colours as you like, for a unique handmade holiday gift for everyone on your list! I tried to limit this collection to quicker patterns so you will actually have time to make them AND send them to your friends and family!

I love this Christmas Gnome Stash Jar Pattern from Crochet by TJM for gifting homemade treats, like caramels, Christmas Peppermints, or Sugar Cookies! The super bulky chenille yarn works up quickly, so this kind of project comes together in a couple of evenings. It makes a unique and thoughtful gift! Perfect for those office gift exchanges or a considered host gift!

Medium Quick Handmade Gifts

The Fox Lover Hat Knitting Pattern from Gamlaknitwear uses Aran-weight yarn on 4.0 mm & 4.5 mm needles. This project would take a little longer to make than the others I have shared so far, but I think it’s worth it! How adorable would this little hat look on a toddler? So sweet!

Since we went with a slightly more involved knitting pattern, here’s a bigger crochet pattern. This Dinosaur Vest Crochet Pattern from Pixel Loop Crochet includes 3 sizes for kids 9 months to 5 years. It is crocheted with Super Bulky Chenille yarn and a 12 mm hook. So even though it is garment-sized, it will work up quickly with the large cozy yarn. One of the things I love about chenille yarn for crochet projects is that it’s so warm! It closes up the gaps in crochet work and it just crochets up so quickly!

Or a super bulky yarn would make a snuggly stuffed toy.

Gorgeous Granny Square Sweater Crochet Patterns to Start the New Year

Granny squares are a great place to start when learning to crochet, but often times new crocheters dont’ know what to do with them once they’re made. I’m going to be honest about those first few: you’re probably not going to be able to do anything with them. You’re learning! It’s normal! Maybe if you caught on quickly, you’ll have some coasters. But take that knowledge and come along to see what you can do with the skills you’ve acquired and find some great patterns to turn your new hobby into garment making!

*Disclosure: this post contains affiliate links, meaning if you click on them and buy something, you don’t pay any extra, but I may get a small commission.*

This Sunflower Crochet Cardigan pattern from Kristines Day Crafts is so cheerful and sunny! I love sunflowers and this stunning cropped cardigan pattern is easy to follow and requires beginner level crochet skills. You could easily lengthen or shorten this cardigan by adding another row of granny squares to the bottom to make it suit your preferences!

This long hooded granny square jacket crochet pattern is a vintage pattern that has been tested and tweaked by skilled crocheter The Sweetest Crochet PT. It is written for size S-M, but is adjustable and the seller offers support for adjusting the size. So I wouldn’t necessarily say this is a beginner crochet pattern, but if you have some experience constructing a crochet pattern, it is likely fairly easy to adjust to your preferred size.

This Crochet Granny Hexagon Cardigan Pattern from Amy T Design isn’t exactly a granny square pattern, but it fits the theme. These Hexagon sweaters are so cool the way they turn a couple of large hexagons into the sleeves and body of a cardigan! You’ll be so amazed at how it comes together. It’s oversized and slouchy, super cozy and quick to make! The beauty of this is that you won’t have to seam together a bunch of tiny granny squares at the end to finish it.

Stephanie is one of my favourite designers for easy to follow crochet patterns and her Cozy Days Daisy Cardigan Crochet Pattern is no different. It is made with a bulky level 5 yarn, so the granny squares works up quickly and you’ll be seaming up this sweater in no time! The yarn she suggests is Lion Brand Yarn’s Hue & Me, which you can also get as a kit (pattern included!) from Lion Brand. This pattern has inclusive sizing, with sizing from XS to 5XL.

This fun Crocheted Daisy Cropped Cardigan Pattern from TS Crochet Design is a fun and colourful granny square jacket with oversized sleeves and a cropped bodice that would make a stunning statement piece. So fun for festivals or weekend wear. You could choose to make it in just a few colours or use it as a stash busting project to use up those leftovers!

This Crochet Granny Square Hooded Cardigan Pattern from By Masal is such a gorgeous long boho-inspired sweater and would be such a stunning statement piece! I love how the different colour arrangements of each square make it so unique and have such a lovely 70’s vibe!

Speaking of a 70’s vibe, check out this stunning Ada Top Crochet Pattern from Cucurucu Crochet! I love this pattern so much! It is size inclusive from XS to 5XL and the length can be customized to your preference. Such a lovely little top! Would make a great top on its own or a vest over a long sleeved shirt.

The Isla Granny Square Sweater Crochet Pattern from Lakeside Loops is a classy take on a crochet classic! This pattern is also size inclusive, with instructions for sizes S-5XL. The 2-4″ of positive ease on this sweater allows for a comfy fit, and depending on the yarn you choose to make it in, it can be suitable for spring/summer or the cooler months.

This Daisy Square Granny Tee Crochet Pattern from Cansharkseattoffee has just one round of granny squares at the yoke of the sweater. It has sizing from 32-34 inches to 44-46 inches and is an easy pattern with flattering sleeves. Once you seam together the granny squares, the rest of the sweater will work up pretty quickly.

I hope you found some inspiration for your next steps in crochet! Crocheting is so fun; your granny squares can turn into more than blankets and scarves! Grab a pattern, some yarn, and a hook and get crocheting today! Or Pin it for later!

Knit and Crochet Gorgeous Handmade Gifts for Baby

My nephew’s fiance is having a baby! I’m so excited! I’m going to be a great auntie! So fun! AND that means that I can make cute things for the baby! Baby is due around Christmas and we don’t know the gender, so it’s a gender-neutral baby pattern round up! If you have a baby you’re knitting or crocheting for, I have a lovely collection of ideas for you!

*Disclosure: this post contains affiliate links, meaning if you click on them and buy something, you don’t pay any extra, but I may get a small commission.*

Let’s start with garments! This stunning Baby Wool Cardigan Knitting Pattern from Little French Knits is an adorable French-inspired striped cardigan with a raglan button opening. I love this one; I think it reads a little bit girly, so I’m a little hesitant to go with this one for my nephew’s baby, but this pattern comes with 3 sizes: 0-3 months, 6-9 months, and 12-18 months, so I could totally make the 12-18 months size for next Christmas!

How adorable is this Back to School Kids Jacket Knitting Pattern from Agasalhos e Bugalhos? You could duplicate stitch a letter on the chest; how sweet would that be? This pattern is available in 11 sizes from 0 months up to 14 years! Incredible! You could make this for any kid or a collection of matching jackets for a family of kids! If this letterman’s jacket isn’t your style, Agasalhos e Bugalhos has soooooo many other adorable baby patterns, it’s worth taking a look in the shop to find a classic baby knitting pattern that you’ll love!

The Joyous Baby Cardigan Knitting Pattern is another one of those stunning baby knitting patterns from Agasalhos e Bugalhos. This pattern is worked top-down in garter stitch, which makes a nice thick fabric while also being easy and quick to knit. This pattern comes with instructions to knit 8 sizes from newborn to 24 months.

This Hooded Baby Jacket from Easy Knitting Camp is another garter-stitch jacket, but this one with a warm and cozy hood and double-breasted buttons. This pattern includes 6 sizes, from 0 months to 6 years and is knit in once piece from the top down, using raglan construction to shape th yoke, so it requires no sewing! I love seamless patterns; they’re my favourite!

The Beginning Cardigan Knitting Pattern from Knits Du Nord is a classic, top-down, seamless knitting pattern including instructions to make 7 different sizes from 0 months to 8 years. Simple and classic, you can’t go wrong with this adorable knitting pattern.

Not to forget the crocheters in the room, this Crochet Sasha Sweater is a great crochet baby sweater option from Bananna Patterns includes 4 sizes, from 0-6 months to 3-4 years. I love the additional texture on the body, which adds to its specialness. This would make a delightful gift for baby!

The Mika Crocheted Cardigan Pattern from Petit Chou Chou Shop is a top-down, seamless crochet cardigan pattern for baby. Instructions are given for 7 sizes from 0 months to 6 years. I love how classic and simple this lovely little jacket is! Perfect for baby boys or baby girls!

I’m always torn between wanting to dress babies like little grown ups or like dolls with fun things like bear ears. I think there’s room for both! This Baby Bear Hoodie Crochet Pattern from Adele Uyan Crochet is just the ticket for a not-too-costumey hooded sweater with a touch of whimsy with little bear ears. You could skip them I guess, if you didn’t want the bear look, but I think they’re so adorable.

Not your traditional baby booties, this Crochet Baby Sneakers Pattern from Crochet Club Store Co are such a fun little baby shoe for your little one! This pattern makes a pair of slippers in a 3-6 month size, so keep that in mind. What a fun little pattern!

The Rainbow of Stars Baby Blanket from Three Loops on the Hook is a fun crocheted blanket pattern that would be a fun option for baby! It would be sure to be a treasured blanket! I can totally see this blanket being the kind of blanket that would become a loved comfort item for a child, that they would take with them into adulthood, worn and loved.

Another fun option is a sweet stuffed animal! I love this adroable Baby Bunny Knitting Pattern from Elves World. This sweet little stuff bunny pattern also includes instructions for those adorable dungarees (overalls) as well as a cute beret not show in this photo. This would be such an adorable stuffed toy for baby!

I just love the unexpectedness of this fun Amigurumi Knit Good Pattern from Amy Gaines. Honestly, I was drawn to this pattern because it reminds me of my middle son (16), but it’s such a delightful little stuffed animal pattern, a little unexpected, but definitely delightful!

There’s just something about bunnies that just say “baby” and this little Cotton, My Little Rabbit Amigurumi Crochet Pattern from Pensebonheur definitely says that! “Big ears, a round belly, a pretty romper and a look of full tenderness” is how this adorable doll is described. The pattern comes in 4 languages with 9 pages of instructions and photos to make this little rabbit toy.

I couldn’t just scroll past this sweet little Baby Cake Bunny Crochet Pattern from Ninas Time 4U; it was just too cute! Patterns for all the accessories you see here are also included: the beanies, dungarees and swaddle bags, as well as the adorable little bunny! This pattern is available in English and German and it would make the sweetest baby shower gift!

I hope you enjoyed this round up of baby patterns. It was really hard to narrow them down and honestly, I don’t think I’m done looking yet. You can also check out this blog post for more great Baby Patterns to try. Grab a pattern and some yarn and get making today or pin it for later!

First up is this sweet Amigurumi Cat Christmas Ornament Knitting Pattern from Amy Gaines. Made with worsted weight yarn and straight knitting needles, so it is the perfect stash buster project and would make a great gift for cat lovers!

This adorable Christmas tree knitting pattern from Shinocraft is knit in the round with double-pointed needles and DK weight yarn. I love the simplicity of this little pattern. It has such a rustic, homey vibe, perfect for an old-fashioned Christmas decor theme!

For a little bit more modern, bright, and colourful knit ornament pattern, there’s this adorable String of Christmas Lights Knitting Pattern from kooklacreations. The pattern includes 2 sizes of lights, is knit on 2 needles with DK weight yarn. Of course, with any pattern, you can substitute a different size yarn and needles to get a different sized finished item! So if you have a bunch of worsted weight yarn, you could use that here and get a larger looking light. The finished bulbs can be hung as individual tree ornaments or strung together on a chain of any length!

These gorgeous Knit Norwegian Christmas Ball Ornaments are made with this 5 in 1 pattern from Knitting Lab Shop. This pattern is knit in the round on 5 needles, which can be a little overwhelming for some knitters, but trust me, you’re really just using 2 needles at a time and it’s pretty straightforward when to switch!

Unless you’re going to spend all your time knitting between now and Christmas, it’s pretty unlikely that you’re going to have enough time to knit all your loved ones full sized sweaters, but you might be able to squeeze in enough time to make them customized Tiny Sweater Ornaments from this knitting pattern from Knit and Hygge.

The Snowy Christmas Ornament Collection Crochet Pattern from Home of Yarns is an adorable set of 4 patterns to make these vintage bauble inspired ornaments! They remind me a little bit of the very delicate ornaments we had at home when I was a child.

I can’t get over the stunning detail of these gorgeous Amigurumi Christmas Ornament Set with the pattern from Natura Crochet Art.

Of course, we couldn’t have a round up of Christmas ornament patterns and not include snowflakes! I have a bunch of delicate crocheted snowflake ornaments that my mom made years ago and I hang them above my mantle; they are a treasured decoration. You can make Delightful Snowflake Ornaments for Christmas with this pattern from Home of Yarns in 2 sizes. They make beautiful ornaments or lovely gift toppers!

There has been! So enjoy this collection of lovely little lambs and sweet sheep knit and crochet patterns to make!

*Disclosure: this post contains affiliate links, meaning if you click on them and buy something, you don’t pay any extra, but I may get a small commission.*

This textured Sheep Security Blanket Crochet Pattern from Chipifriends comes in 5 languages and is an intermediate crochet pattern. This little lovey would make such a sweet handmade baby shower gift for a precious new baby!

How adorable are these little baby sheeps from bigbebez? I love little amigurumis (small crocheted toys) that you can put on a keychain! It’s a way of making something cute and adorable as a gift for an adult! This kind of thing is the perfect thing to make just because they’re fun and have around for a last minute gift!

Oli the Sheep Crochet Pattern from Chipifriends is an adorable little stuff sheep crochet pattern with that squiggly textured fleece that is so lovely to look at and hold. This pattern makes a great little handhold toy which would be perfect for a toddler to love!

The designers haven’t left my knitters hanging this time! There are some super sweet little stuffed sheep knitting patterns as well, starting with this Moss the Sheep Knitting Pattern from fluff and fuzz. This pattern includes instructions to knit both this sheep and the little lamb and is knit flat on single-pointed needles, not in the round. So if you are not someone who enjoys knitting in the round, this is definitely the stuffed toy knitting pattern for you!

sheep in the countryside cushion knitting pattern

One of the things I really love about knitting is the ease with which designers can create a picture with colourwork knitting patterns. This Knitting Pattern for Sheep in the Countryside Cushion from i Knit Designs is a sweet little knit pillow pattern that would be delightful in a nursery or to bring a touch of whimsy to your living space or bedroom. Who says all the fun and cute things have to be left to the kids’ bedrooms?

I cannot get over the cuteness of this Little Lamb Knitting Pattern from Cute Knit Toy. It looks so cute and cuddly. Cute Knit Toy has a bunch of other adorable knit toy patterns as well. A lot of knitted toy patterns have such obvious decreases and increases that I usually think they don’t look as good as crocheted toys, but these ones are so good!

image of crocheted sheep made with digital crochet pattern

The Sleepy Sheep Crochet Pattern from SS By Pederson is another adorable amigurumi sheep pattern that measures just 16 x 8 cm (6 x 3 inches) that will work up quickly and make a delightful handmade gift!

image of crocheted sheep toy made with amigurumi crochet pattern

While this little crocheted sheep pattern from Lilys handmade Store makes a little sheep a little bit larger, measuring about 6 cm (2.36 inches), it is still a super adorable little pattern that is easy to follow and works up quickly. You have to go visit the pattern listing because there is the most adorable photo of a box full of 25 identical little sheep made with this pattern and it is enough to make me want to make a box of my own bunch of little sheep!

A Dozen Spectacular Kawaii Handbags to Crochet

I don’t know what it is about crochet bags and purses, but there is something about them that just draws me in. I have made at least a half a dozen bags of various types over the last few years and I’m still drawn to new handbag patterns all the time. And I have found event more to add to my list and inspire you! There are so many fun and cute ideas out there that will be sure to delight you!

*Disclosure: this post contains affiliate links, meaning if you click on them and buy something, you don’t pay any extra, but I may get a small commission.*

How sweet is this Cherry Pie Purse Crochet Pattern from The Stitching Shoppe? This cottagecore-inspired purse measures about 10″ across when finished and is suited for a beginner-intermediate level crocheter. Make yourself a fun and custom bag that is sure to spark conversations!

image of a drawstring handbag made to look like an orange

I love the simplicity of this Crochet Orange Bag Pattern from Lilys Handmade Store! It looks like the leaf acts as an anchor for the drawstring, which is a genius idea. And it’s basically just a little sack, perfect for your cell phone, wallet, and keys when you don’t have pockets.

Ok, though, but this Crochet Duck Bag Pattern from Bebblepuff? How can you not? The design for this adorable and unique crochet duck purse include instructions for two pockets and a cotton lining. It calls for size 6 (bulky) yarn and an 8 mm crochet hook, which means it will work up quickly and make a nice sturdy handbag.

Ok, when I first saw the Blossom Bag crochet pattern from Bookworm Gardens I thought it was a fried egg purse. I suppose if you made the petals more irregularly shaped, you could make this bag look more like a fried egg, but it is still a really fun flower purse! There are lots of sample photos (tester photos!) in the listing, so you can see what it looks like in different colours to help you choose.

If you have been around here a while, you will know it’s no secret that I love lemons! I love the look of them (yellow is my favourite colour!) and I love the flavour of them! I love a lemon wedge squeezed in my ice water. And I love this Citrusly?? Granny Square Tote Bag crochet pattern from Cozy Dome Crafts. This citrus granny squre tote bag is great for beginners and can be modified with differnt colours to create a variety of different citrus fruits. Limes? Oranges? Grapefruit? So many options!

white crocheted tote bag with a black cat pattern

How great is this Black Cat Tote Bag Crochet pattern from Patterns Crochet Store? I can just see this bag adding a touch of whimsy to a little black dress and would make such a fun gift for a cat lover! That’s one of the great things about bags: they make great gifts because you don’t have to worry about fit!

Ok, maybe you saw my last post about mushrooms, but I didn’t include this Crossbody Toadstool Bag Crochet Pattern from HELLO Happy. This super whimsical mushroom bag has a zipper closure and is made with a small hook so it can remain unlined and you won’t lose your little things through the crochet fabric.

This Crossbody Froggy Bag Crochet Pattern also from HELLO Happy has a similar fit as the mushroom bag and calls for a 9 inch zipper. It would make a nice alternative to the mushroom bag, but still with a whimsical woodland theme.

crocheted drawstring bag that looks like a strawberry

The Chaotic Strawberry has this Amigurumi Strawberry Drawstring Bag Crochet Pattern available for purchase and immediate download. This pattern is probably best for an advanced beginner or intermediate crocheter. The design of this purse allows you to open the drawstring without having to adjust the strap since the strap is separate from the drawstring opening. I love the bundle of leaves on the top of the strawberry closure: makes for a very authentic looking strawberry!

crocheted handbad that looks like an acorn with a cute face

The Kawaii Acorn Bag Crochet Pattern from Sweet Home Deco Estudio is another woodland-inspired bag pattern that would make the perfect whimsical gift for anyone! I love the sweet little oak leaves adorning the top of the bag. The beauty of making your own bag like this is that you can make it any length you want!

crocheted shopping bag that folds into a flower

The Spring Folding Shopping Bags Crochet Pattern from one and two company is an adorable and functional shopping bag pattern. I don’t know about your city, but my city has recently imposed a ban on plastic bags, so it is all the more important that we bring our own reusable shopping bags with us. And what better way to do so than with an adorable crocheted bag that folds into an adorable little accessory? With this one pattern you can make a cute bunny, funny chicken, or a colourful flower!

For a slightly smaller bag, you could make the Collapsable Fruit Bag Crochet Pattern from McScottys. This pattern features five different versions including options to make citrus fruit (lemon, lime or orange), dragonfruit, and watermelon. Handy for stashing in your purse to corral additional purchased for a little bit extra storage.

I love the functional whimsy of this Mushroom Jar with Removable Lid Knitting Pattern from mymarketstall. When I first saw the description of this mushroom jar, I thought that maybe it was designed to cover a real jar. I think it still could do that (hot glue the mushroom cap to the lid?!) and then you could have a super cute candy jar. I have a whole collection (hoard?) of jars that just feel a shame to do nothing with, so maybe I could make a whole bunch of mushroom jars?!

This beautiful collection Knit Amigurumi Mushroom Christmas Ornaments from Amy Gaines is a great set to get you started making delightful little mushrooms. They would make super cute Christmas ornaments for a tree, of course, but also could be put on a key chain to be used year round!

The Fairy Ring Socks also by katiegreen is such a cute sock pattern for the more subtle option of the three patterns. It’s a little easier to hide whimsical socks under a pair of shoes, but still feel delightful knowing your secret fun socks are keeping your toes warm!

I loooooove the Fairy Ring Cardigan Knitting Pattern designed by katiegreen. This pattern looks steeked (the process of cutting your knitting), so it can be knit in the round and then made into a cardigan at the finish. I have still been too shy to get the steeked sweater pattern that I have made, so I have yet to try this process. It seems straightforward, though still slightlly terrifying.

I can’t get over the cuteness on the Toadstools Embroidered Baby Cardigan Knitting Pattern from Love Fibres! I love the adorable embroidered mushrooms! I think this would be such a delightful gift for a new baby!

The Mushrooms Baby Cardigan Knitting Pattern from Ana Swet is another mushroom-themed cardigan, but the mushroom design is worked using the duplicate stitch instead of regular embroidery. Looks like a great pattern to learn the duplicate stitch!

How sweet are these? Woodland Bear Party Dress for 8″ Tearoom Bears Knitting Pattern from maryjanestearoom is a knit dress pattern for an 8″ toy bear (or doll), but I just can’t get over how adorable they are!

The Amanita Mushroom Mittens Knitting Pattern from hollycwatson is a full colourwork knit mitten pattern that is sure to bring you delight all winter long while you wear these incredible and stylish mittens!

I hope you found a mushroom to make your making magical this summer! These delightful patterns can be pinned to save them for later! Or grab a pattern and get making today!

Crochet Patterns to Make Your Own Custom Mantel Decor

I have a confession to make: I’m not particularly skilled at decor. I value utility. Don’t get me wrong, I love pretty things, I appreciate a beautiful space and styled things, but ultimately, I live here and we’ve got a lot of stuff that needs homes. I have a hard time devoting a lot of shelf space to knick knacks. But I have 2 mantels in my house now and both of them are only half styled. So, I’m going to take it slow and start thinking through more of what we put on those mantels. Today, I’m thinking about the mantel in the family room, which sits about 12 inches below the television and is only about 5 inches deep. I know there are guidelines about height and depth and I feel like it’s pretty hard to obey those rules when I don’t have much room for either. Nearly everything I currently have on there is about the same height, so I think I need some shorter things. This is what is looks like now (and yes, soccer is often playing at our house, even if no one is there watching it):

So, I like all these little quirky elements that are here, but they don’t seem properly styled or connected. So, I think it might need some things and it might need some things taken away. I’m going to start experimenting. And making. I’m thinking about some of the following patterns as options for things I can add to the mantel to add some texture and cohesiveness. (Though, I might just have to invite my sister over for a styling session). Anyway, maybe you’re looking for some handmade decor styling items (aka knick knacks), check out these patterns and tell me which one(s) you’re thinking of making (or which ones I should add to my mantel).

Ok, this is where I’m leaning right now. Strings of wooden beads have been pretty popular in home decor for the last little while. Probably they’re on their way out, but it’s not like I’ve ever been on the cutting edge of home decor anyway, so it will be new to me! Also, these wouldn’t be wooden beads, they would be strings of crocheted beads! It’s a spin, which makes it relevant again. Regardless of whether you’re looking to make little crocheted balls for home decor or for a baby toy, this Bead Crochet Pattern in 5 Sizes from My Dear Knot is a great pattern to work with!

This is another great contender! I love this Crochet Light Ball crochet pattern from Made by Catarina idea, with the lacy crochet ball filled with little mini lights. Such a fun idea! What do you think?

Ok, I already have a fake plant on the mantel and a real plant (in that super cute cat planter), but I have once before had a real string of pearls plant that I killed, so I’m not sure if I can keep one alive, especially not in this spot. This room sees a fair bit traffic and no one is super careful in my house. I would be super bummed if I managed to keep a string of pearls plant alive and then one of my family members knocked it to the floor. But… a crocheted plant made from this super cute Pointy Leaf Vine Crochet Pattern from Keeleys Crochet might be just the ticket!

Ooooh or I could crochet around a jar with this Crocheted Jar Cover Pattern from ellina and make that into a candle holder or put a little string of battery operated lights in there. I do have a strange hoarding tendency towards jars, so if I could put some to use like this, that would be wonderful! To be clear, I use a lot of them for other useful purposes as well, but I do have a hard time throwing out a good jar! Perhaps I will make a goal of giving gifts in jars for Christmas this year!

Need a set of crochet hooks? This Crochet Hook Set has everything you need to get started with crochet.

Ok, again, I know I already have plants on there, but what if what it needs–stay with me here–is MORE plants?! I know right? I think it could be what’s missing. Especially if it meant having one of these super fun Air Plant Crocheted Planters made with the pattern by Cosmonaut Llama! Right? That is so fun. I think I need to make one of these.

Ok, look at this. We’re getting closer here… jars, crochet, plants… all in one pattern! This Crochet Mason Jar Sweater Sleeve Candle Plant Cozy Pattern from Deni Made Designs is just the thing. Ticks all the boxes. More plants… more jars. This is a great option.

I also quite like this Farmhouse Candle Cozy Crochet Pattern from Through the Loop YC. It could probably still be used to cover some jars, but I must say it looks pretty sweet on this collection of 3 matching candles.

I just love amigurumi; I’m not sure the family room is where I want to put an anthropomorphic stuffed plant, but it does check the plant box! And it’s little! You can’t find a real Sansevieria plant this small! This delightful Snake Plant Amigurumi Crochet Pattern from Knot Monster sits only 16 cm tall when finished, so it could be just right for my mantel!

Ok, so while not strictly something I would make for the top of my mantel, this Crochet Daisy Garland with Leaves Pattern from Krafty Home Studio could be hung from the bottom of my mantel. It doesn’t really solve my mantel decoration “problem” but I stumbled upon it in my search and I just loved it, so I wanted to share it with all of your

Alright, looking at the dimensions of the Crochet Tray Basket Pattern from The Cozy Knot Crochet displayed here, I’m not sure this exact item would fit on my mantel, but hear me out… perhaps I could make it in a size that would fit on my mantel? What do you think? I’m pretty sure I could figure out resizing it. Also, I didn’t even realize it at first but this pattern also comes with a matching vase cozy! Sweet!

Alright, I know that these vintage patterns are distinctly Christmassy and well, kind of old-lady-ish, but maybe one of the little houses could work? It’s a vintage crochet pattern from Past Pattern Palooza Co and it’s prety inexpensive, so perhaps I could experiment, maybe in a not-white crochet cotton? And get something that could work on my mantel? What do you think?

Ok, back to the balls. See? Like this? In different sizes, or perhaps a string of the same sizes. These Large Size Crochet Balls (there are other sizes, too) from Dalecrest Designs are actually a finished item made of cotton macrame cord and styrofoam balls. I have made similar ones as baubles for my Christmas tree using Bernat Home Decor Yarn. If you don’t crochet or you don’t have the time or materials to make them yourself, these are a great option!

Well, I’m looking forward to some of your feedback about what I should make to put on my mantel. And maybe once I’ve made some shorter little trinkets, perhaps my sister will still come over and help me make it pretty. Grab one of these patterns or pin it for later!

So, if you have started to learn to crochet, you will want to start with some easy crochet projects for beginners. I have created a wonderful collection of easy beginner crochet projects for you to try out.

Dishcloths are a great place to start. Dishcloths are small projects that allow you to work on gauge and learning one stitch until you perfect it. The Savon Set of beautiful set of crochet dishcloth/washcloth patterns from DeBrosse NYC is a great place to start. The washcloths work up to be about 10″ x 10″ and you can make a set from a single cake of Lion Brand Comfy Cotton.

You can make a dishcloth in whatever colour you like. So whether you like creamy naturals like DeBrosse is known for or your prefer something with more colour, the beauty of handmade is that you can make your dishcloths in whatever colour you prefer. There are so many washcloth tutorials out there, like this Easist Crochet Baby Washcloth from Daisy Cottage Designs.

Once you’ve got the hang of basic crochet projects, you will be ready for larger projects. Blankets are basically just like large washcloths, but the beauty of this Easy Peasy DC Throw Crochet Pattern from Whistle and Wool is that it is made with a single (large) skein of Lion Brand Cover Story Chenille yarn.

It’s like making a bunch of washcloths and sewing them together to make a sweet and trendy modern crochet throw blanket! It’s a wonderful way to use up scrap yarn and it’s a great project to bring with you, since you can work on it in small pieces!

You can make it with either a bulky yarn or a medium yarn to make it for the season of your choice. The bulky version will work up quickly and be so cozy for the cold winter months, while a medium weight wrap will be perfectly stylish for the warmer season.

Once you’re feeling pretty confident in the consistency of your stitches and your ability to meet gauge (that means: make your stitches the same size as the designer), you can move on to a more fitted (but still forgiving) crochet pattern, like the Nala Crochet Cardigan Pattern from The Easy Design. You can make it in one of 7 sizes, XS – 3 XL. The basic stitch pattern and the very easy construction of this cardigan make it perfect for beginners who want to make their first wearable garment.

I hope you found some inspiration to get you started with crocheting and learning to make written patterns. There’s no end to the wonderful projects that are available, once you have the hang of the basics. And as you can see there are many lovely projects you can make while learning!
