My tree is slowing growing with more crochet ornaments. Once my littles are not so little, I plan on getting another tree (to put on the other side of the baby gate!) and decorating it 100% with crochet ornaments! It will take me a few years to make enough, so I think the timing will be perfect.
We are still struggling to get enough sleep around here, so I have been working on this pattern pack for quite some time! (It’s hard to get too much done in a handful of 30 minute increments!)
These little crochet sweater ornaments are inspired by the Harry Potter Books, with which I now have a complicated relationship. Harry Potter provided a world of whimsy, belonging, a connection with other Potter Heads, a place to geek out, to feel like a child again. There was a time when I wrote lots of letters, petitioning her to work with me to make a crochet book! I have finally settled in a place where I will continue making my own HP inspired patterns for anyone who wants to geek out with me, for anyone who found a place of belonging within the pages, but could no longer pursue an official relationship (although I doubt it would have happened anyway!).
If you are feeling conflicted like me, I hope you settle in a good place.
You’re tired of sifting through complicated tutorials and patterns that leave you feeling overwhelmed.
Let me help.
PICTURE THIS:
Instant access to a library of modern, easy-to-follow patterns
Gifting your handcrafted treasures to your loved ones.
Feeling accomplished by your beautiful makes
It’s time to make your crafting experience as joyful as it should be.
Even if you don’t care for those books, you can make these little accessories in any color and they would still be lovely. The pattern includes graphs for each letter of the alphabet, so you can make a sweater with the first initial of each person in your family.
The pattern pack includes three patterns: Scarves, Stockings, and Sweaters.
Aren’t those little hangers adorable? The hangers were non-negotiable for me and definitely part of my vision for this project. I bought a couple kinds. The wire ones are nice but they really disappear once you hang the ornaments, and also snag the yarn. I would recommend going with the wood ones, they are about 6cm wide.
I got them on Amazon here.
