Handmade Holiday: My 2024 Crochet Christmas Projects

|


With the holidays just around the corner, it's the perfect time to plan crochet projects for Christmas! Here is a list of inspiring crochet patterns, tutorials, and pictures that will make the holiday season merry and bright. I hope to crochet a few myself!

Crochet Christmas ornaments I made for Christmas 2024

Some of the patterns and photos are my own, while others I found online, with the source and designer credited. I focused on finding fun, easy, and beginner-friendly crochet patterns and tutorials for the Christmas season.

Lately, I’ve noticed more and more images of AI-generated crochet items, which makes me a bit sad, because there are so many talented and amazing people in the crochet and yarn community creating true works of art. This post is dedicated to them—their work, why I love it, and why I use the patterns they’ve created.

I have already completed a few Christmas decorations, but I also made a list of things I’d love to try next. I’ve split it into categories:

  • Ornaments
  • Amigurumi
  • Wreaths
  • Décor: placemats, coasters, table runners, pillows, and blankets

But first, let me share some tips for planning your crochet Christmas projects:

  • If you’re reading this in December… Well, you’re a bit late to the party! But you can always start preparing for Christmas 2025!
  • Start early: Holiday crochet projects can take time, especially larger items like blankets or tree skirts. Planning ahead prevents the last-minute rush. As they say, “Christmas in July” is a good rule of thumb!
  • Choose holiday colors: Traditional holiday colors like red, green, and white are always popular, but don’t be afraid to try metallics, pastels, or neutrals to match your decor. You could even add a metallic thread to your yarn—just one silver strand will make a white crochet ornament sparkle surrounded by Christmas lights! This isn’t just for ornaments; it works well for garlands, snowflakes, and other holiday decorations too.
  • Gift handmade: Many of these items, like ornaments and small amigurumi, make wonderful, thoughtful gifts. Crocheting a few extras ensures you’ll have unique presents ready for family and friends.

Are you ready to start your holiday crochet projects? Or are you too late?

 

Happy crafting!
