You guys!! I am so excited for today! I have hooked up with a wonderful group of bloggers to bring you seven FREE Christmas Garland Crochet Patterns. Every single design is so gorgeous, you are seriously going to want to make them all! Check back all week long to find the free pattern on each blog. My crochet holiday garland pattern was created using three classic ornament designs.
Every day this week we will be sharing our crochet garland tutorials…
Monday November 9 – Make and Takes and Flamingo Toes
Tuesday November 10 – Whistle and Ivy and Twin Dragonfly Designs
Wednesday November 11 – Persia Lou
Thursday November 12 – Sugar Bee Crafts
Friday November 13 – 733 Blog
The most challenging part of the process for me was actually finding a way to photograph the garland for this post! It’s hard to fit all of the fun shapes, colors and designs into one photograph. I made three different patterns, one for each of the ornaments. There are so many fun ways to use these ornaments! You could make a few and hang them from your Christmas tree or add one to a special holiday packaged, tied up with a bit of bakers twine!
