King Cole Glitz DK 1698 Christmas Acrylic Festive Knitting Wool

Product Information

All of the yarns are striped; Robin matches the other yarns in the Country Birds range, Candy Cane is made up of just three colours which looks very effective, and Holly Berry and Fairy Lights are also striped in a way that will be familiar to those who have knitted with WYS yarn before. Oh, they are so good at creating striped yarns! This Christmas paper plate angel is so cute! Great for slightly older kids, it takes under an hour to make and will look pretty placed at the top of your tree for all to see afterwards. 8. Pretty pine cone ornaments Making DIY Christmas ornaments is a wonderful way to spread the holiday spirit. Share them as Christmas gifts, donate them to a charity, or hang them on the tree to enjoy for your own Christmas decor. Along with the huge cost-savings, this option offers great flexibility in that you can easily edit the script, allowing you to add or subtract characters, change names, divide up parts, etc., before printing and distributing to your kids. You can also add in staging cues to fit your situation, or add your own director notes or instructions. You may also print copies to send home, print other copies to keep at church or school, print more copies to send home when the first ones are lost ;-), so that no one ever needs to be caught without their copy.

Here’s the pattern for the Silent Night yarn, first of all. It’s called Comet, as all of the patterns are named after Father Christmas’s reindeer (I told you I would explain!). Anna is the last of Sam’s “visitors.” She works for a delivery company and comes and goes bringing and delivering boxes. Jazz up plain paper plates with these merry and bright, giant Christmas baubles! A brilliant easy Christmas craft for kids, you can make these joyous decorations with tissue paper like Mum in the Mad House, or use whatever papercraft supplies you have to create your own design! 21. DIY Christingle Papercraft snowflakes are the perfect way to craft up some Christmas magic! So easy, it’s a wonderful project for all ages. All you need is some white or silver paper, a pencil and scissors. Add some glitter for extra shimmer! Whether you’re using a template like these gorgeous designs from The Printables Fairy or precut snowflakes that your little ones can then decorate and collage, like these bejewelled makes by Fun Learning For Kids, there are so many ways to let it snow! 2. Paper starsOh wow! TWO sparkly yarns! And a new pattern for each of them … I went to get some more ice for my drink and sat in the shade to think about it all 🙂 This year, there would be FIVE Christmas yarns to choose from, a new free pattern for Silent Night and a pattern book with patterns for each of the yarns. That was just Christmas-tastic! 🎄 What’s special about the yarn this year is that it’s got a sparkle to it (it’s called Signature Sparkle), a silver thread that runs right through the yarn and catches the light when you knit. And what you also need to know – most importantly – is that it’s not scratchy at all (scratchy sparkly yarns are not nice to knit or wear!). It was the first thing I asked about, and the WYS Elves said that it was most definitely not scratchy because that was high on their list of priorities too. This is what I like, a yarn company on my wavelength! If you’re looking for nursery Christmas crafts, this yarn wrapped Christmas tree tutorial is great for little ones and so easy to make while also using up your yarn scraps in the process! 10. Loo roll Christmas crafts

Isn’t it lovely? It’s the perfect gingerbread colour and it’s got Christmassy red, green and white in there too. It’s almost good enough to eat! You've probably experienced the way time can evaporate in December, right? When you're planning to crochet Christmas patterns, you'll want to have all the right suppliesahead of time.This will help you have the most relaxing Christmas season. The heel flap is in Ribbed Heel Stitch which makes it a little bit stretchier for those with wider feet, or even just for those who feel that a heel flap is usually a bit tighter than they’d like to wear. The twisted stitch rib sections give some stretch too, so there’s no need to adjust the size you’d usually knit because there’s a cable on the front – they should still fit properly if you knit your usual size. And finally, there are two more patterns in Silent Night. Yes, you read that right – TWO more patterns!

Please do not adjust your screen – it really is Christmas in August as the WYS Christmas 2023 yarn has been released today! Woohoo! The West Yorkshire Spinners Christmas yarns have become something of a tradition and this will be their 8th special edition yarn. There isn’t a photo of the slouch version to show you as it’s very similar to the other two, but this is what the decreases look like on the knee high version so you can see how they work. I was very pleased with the way they turned out – they reminded me of branches of a tree (a Christmas tree, perhaps? 🙂 ) Some optional supplies that can come in very handy include a project bagto hold your WIP (work in progress), scissors, a pom pom maker, buttons, leather accentsand, my personal mandatory, the movie Love Actually. More Christmas Crochet Patterns Why not make some festive Christmas tree slime to mark the holidays. Mix in glitter and confetti to make it extra Christmassy. This gorgeous gloopy homemade festive slime from will provide hours of fun! 12. Cute Reindeer burlap ornaments Transform plain paper plates into festive faces! Great for toddlers and older kids too. This cool design from Easy Peasy and Fun uses buttons for eyes and rosy cheeks, white glitter, paint and glue. Or why not combine 3 plates to make a snowman body? We also love this reindeer design too! 4. Christmas festive headbands

Horizon Oeko-tex certified, machine washable, and itch-free! It’s also a great alternative if you experience discomfort when wearing wool. You can see that it’s not a true cable but it looks very effective and I like the way that it breaks the yarn colours up in places.

1. Paper snowflakes

I haven’t been able to say much about what I was knitting over the Spring and Summer this year, but now all can be revealed … in fact, you may have seen what I was up to and started to knit it for yourself! (It’s such fun to be cryptic sometimes! 🙂 ) Oh, I could see it in my mind’s eye immediately – a dark night with a bright star above a stable. Shades of blue and silver; a thousand images from a childhood growing up with Christmas traditions and stories. Can you see it too? Ah well, it’s still in production so we can’t tell you,” they said (producing yarn is a secretive business and I’m only told what I need to know!) “But we can tell you that it’s called “Silent Night” so imagine a Christmas card …”
