Crocheting isn’t just for Grandma! People of all ages are picking up yarn and getting hooked on this new again hobby. In an age when manufactured goods are king, it seems improbable that handmade goods could find value. That’s just it though. They have value because they have meaning. Handmade gifts are making a huge comeback. When you make something and put your heart and spirit into it, that item has more value than anything from a department store.
This year for Christmas, see what all the fuss is about. This book takes you on an easy step-by-step journey through crocheting some things to make your holidays just a little more cozy. From the simple, to the complex, this book really covers it all.
For those that have never picked up a hook before, there are easy to follow directions on how to get started and what the basic skills you will need are. For those that can spin out a blanket in a matter of hours, there’s something for you too!
The projects are paired with pictures, showing you just a quick idea of what you can do with your project. There’s so much out there! Each pattern also comes with directions on how much yarn you will need, the hook type, and helpful hints.
Christmas is right around the corner. Start a new tradition this year with some handmade decorations that will be treasured for years. You’ll be surprised at how easy they really are to put together.
Comments From Other Readers
“I don’t normally have the patience to sit and just work on a craft. Then I broke my leg. Needless to say there wasn’t too much I could do but sit for long periods of time. You can only have so many Netflix marathons. A friend of mine from work suggested taking up crocheting. I figured with this book I might be able to throw something together for the holidays and if not, I’d at least keep my mind off my leg. It was a success on both parts! I started out with a runner and worked my way up to a wreath. I know this is something I’ll continue long after I’m up and walking!” - Amy (Minnesota, US)
“I loved making little gifts for my kid’s teachers and even as stocking stuffers. The Elf was adorable and the cape will get a lot of use as the days get colder. I’m so glad I grabbed this book!” - Kelli (North Carolina, US)

Crochet Projects for Christmas: Over 15 Fun Easy Crochet Christmas Gifts Reviews
-
Could have been better
While the projects are nice, there was no true mention of type of yarn, size of yarn or yardage used. -
Skip this one.
Projects were passé, directions were fairly terrible and, for an instruction book, it was sorely lacking in graphics or photos. -
Worth $0.99
The whole book is definitely worth the price. Even if someone only wanted to make one of the patterns, the whole dollar would make it worth it. There is a cute little girl elf doll and two different pretty tree skirts that are cute to me. I can't say how well the patterns are written, but these three patterns would be fun to try. -
Variety of patterns but nothing to shake the earth.
I’m a bit disappointed in this book, but to a raw beginner it would be useful. Instructions are clear and given row by row. Not for a more experienced crafter. -
Its a fun book
I really enjoyed this for the simplicity of the patterns. The chosen projects are tasteful and practical.
Fun and easy! -
Simple patterns
Everything is lovely but not a lot jumped out as something I’d like to make. Lots of nice tree skirts. -
Christmas Crochet Projects
I wasn’t too happy with a lot of the projects. There was nothing wrong with them I just didn’t like them. -
Not too bad For $.99. There are no illustrations, and some of the patterns are confusing. However, there are some good patterns worth taking the trouble to figure out the instructions.
-
Not worth the money!!
I only gave it two stars because the projects are cute. The book wasn't worth buying!! The instructions are very confusing! I can't even use it!! I would not recommend this book to anyone! -
Cute
There are a lot of very cute crochet patterns in here for Christmas. Easy to read. Simple and easy directions. -
Homemade is the way to go
Some great ideas. Will be getting ready now, homemade is the way to go this year. Inexpensive and easy to do.
