I thought I'd do a quick post reviewing the Christmas craft instructions and patterns from The Crafty Cattery. If you're looking for gifts to make for yourself or someone else, consider these!
Amigurumi Nativity Crochet Pattern. So far it's just Mary and baby Jesus and Joseph but I plan to release a new pattern each year for another figure in the Nativity.
Felt Advent Calendar. Includes instructions for making the calendar and ornaments. No patterns for the ornaments, unfortunately. You're on your own with those!
Christmas Card Holder. Instructions for making a very simple string and clothespin card holder.
Peppermint Felt Tree Skirt. Instructions for making a simple tree skirt.
Instructions for furoshiki, the Japanese art of wrapping gifts in cloth. Great for reducing wrapping paper waste.
Not really Christmas themed but these still make good gifts:
Big Bad Wolf Amigurumi Pattern. Crochet a little friend for the wolf lover in your life!
For, um... that person who always wanted a knitted saguaro cactus keychain?
Instructions for a crocheted kimono-style baby sweater.
