Christmas crochet patterns

With the cooler weather and snow coming I thought I would list some of my Christmas crochet patterns. I know that this is early, but in order to make these patterns in time for Christmas, I wanted to get these posted. All of my patterns have been tested by 2 or 3 other individuals so that they make sense and to catch any errors.  I also list my e-mail address on each pattern so that you can reach me by e-mail if you have a question on them.

I love this time of year with snow and icicles.  Unfortunately, our state does not always have snow.  I made a quick and fun pattern to decorate the Christmas tree or wreaths or package wrapping with.

The pattern gives picture tutorials on how to add the pearl like beads at the bottom of each icicle.  You can find my pattern on my Etsy shop, at my Craftsy store,  in my Ravelry store, or use the buy now button at the right.  If you would like to buy three of these decorations already made for you, you can find them for sale in my Etsy shop.

 

In our house, Christmas is all about the birth of my Savior, Jesus Christ.  Before the birth of this miracle baby, God sent an angel to tell Mary and the shepherds about what He was doing. 

You can buy the pattern using the "buy now" button on the right, or here in my Ravelry shop, in my Etsy store or on Craftsy.  She would look wonderful on a wall or tree or even in the middle of a wreath. 

 

I have so many Nativity sets that all my surfaces are covered.  I designed a nativity set for the wall.

The pattern includes the patterns for Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus, the star and the background.  Use the buy now button on the right to purchase this pattern or buy it at AndersonsCreations on Etsy or at my Craftsy Store.  If you don't have the time or inclination to make this yourself, you can buy this glorious wall hanging here.

 

The sweet little baby Jesus pattern along with the other 2 characters can be purchased separately and hung on a tree or wreath and then put in the nativity on Christmas day.  I love the baby Jesus as he has no glass parts so that he makes a perfect teaching tool that small hands cannot break him.

You can use the buy now button on the right to purchase this pattern or but it on Etsy, Ravelry, or on Craftsy.  I have set up a section in my Ravelry shop that has all my Christmas Crochet patterns in one convenient place.  Ravelry Christmas Crochet  If you are interested in buying this darling ornament already made for you, you will find it in my Etsy shop.

 

Another tradition I love at Christmas time in Christmas Carolers.  The Victorian Carolers are also attached to a hoop and are ready to celebrate Christ's birth in song.

The pattern includes complete instructions on making a male and female character standing by a gas street light on a snowy street.  Use the buy now button on the right or buy the pattern at AndersonsCreations on Etsy, or on Craftsy or at my Ravelry store.  If you would prefer to buy this wall hanging already hand made for you, you can find it in my etsy shop.

 

I love Christmas time and have to start early to get everything made for family and friends.  What do you like about Christmas?

 







Winter knit patterns to help keep you warm outside.

This year, winter has really hung around.  With the cold hanging around the country we have burned more wood this year than in previous years.  I love to knit and crochet by the fire.  Lately, I am working on a new pattern for a shrug.  Here is a picture of the completed project.

 

It fits women's XS to Medium.  I made it with Merino wool and silk and it is the perfect accessory for adding warmth and flair to an outfit.  This link takes you to the completed shrug.  long shrug.  I am currently working on another for larger sized women in teal and grey.  The results are stunning and I am excited to get this listed in my shop.

 

Hopefully, I will have the pattern ready to be tested soon and it will be available in several sizes.  All my patterns are tested by at least two others and the knit patterns include charts.

 

A scarf is also needed in this weather.  Here is a design for anyone who is dreaming of flowers.

Iris scarf pattern

You can find it already made for you in my Etsy shop and I made it again with a wonderfully soft and  silky Moreno and silk wool.  long lacy iris scarf.

 

Here is another scarf that I designed using Suri baby alpaca and silk yarn.  I love how nice and warm this design keeps the wearer.

Of course I had to design some fingerless gloves to complete the set using the same yarn.

When I was designing the women's gloves my husband asked for something that he could wear so I had to design some fingerless gloves for him and other men.  I made a cable stitch that looks like a winter tree.

Stay warm and be sure to bundle up when venturing into the frozen out doors.

Christmas crochet patterns

I love Christmas time.  Maybe that is why I have so many crochet patterns that would add that special touch to your home.  I thought I would showcase some of these patterns.  The first pattern is a Victorian Carolers Wall Hanging when you want to add a bit of Victorian flair to your holiday decorating.

I love snow. Kansas doesn't always comply so I made this really easy snow on icicle ornament pattern to put around the house, on a tree or wreath.

A new crochet ornament that I finished this year is for anyone who has a new baby in their life.  The back of the ornament has a flat area that could have a label attached with the baby's date of birth and name.  They will last long after Christmas on a nursery wall.

In our house, Christmas is all about the announcement that the angel made to Mary about the birth of her miracle baby.  Angels are all around us but we can't usually see them unless they allow us to.  This ornament can hang on the tree or a wall the remind us of God's protection no matter what time of year.

What would Christmas be without the birth of that special baby 2000 year ago.  This ornament of the sweet baby Jesus can be used on a tree or wreath.  Making this ornament can help teach small ones what Christmas is about without fear of small hands breaking them.  I had one customer tell me that she makes one for friends when they need comfort.

I love nativity sets so I had to design one that could hang on the wall as all my surfaces were covered with other crèches.  This pattern includes 4 ornaments that would look wonderful on any tree or wreath.
