Christmas cards to make your family and friends

Is there anyone who doesn’t love Christmas cards?

Not only do we love sending festive well-wishes to friends near and far, we love blocking out a few hours on a chilly afternoon to make our own.

Although there are plenty of lovely designs in shops, there’s something really special and charming about handmade Christmas cards.

If you’re looking for a quick and easy project, out Christmas Card Set Knitting Pattern is great for beginners.

The bundle is comprised of patterns for three different designs - a bobble hat complete with a snowflake motif, a red and white stocking featuring a spring of holly and a pair of mittens embellished with a star button.

Classic designs like these are sure to appeal to loved ones of all ages. And we've no doubt that a smile will spread across the recipient's face as one lands on their doormat. 

If you're in the mood to work with a hook and yarn instead, download our Snowman Christmas Card Crochet Pattern now. This make requires a basic level of skill and it's likely you'll be able to complete a set using yarn from your ever-growing stash. 

Once you get started, it won't be long before you have a rather jolly looking snowman decorated with glimmering beads. A dinky red crocheted scarf with tasseled ends adds the perfect finishing touch to your festive figure. 

If you're looking to give your Christmas cards a luxurious and professional finish, we suggest using embossed cardboard. 

And let’s not forget about that fact that it’s highly likely you’ll be sent lots of fabulous Christmas cards yourself.

Display them in style by whipping up some of our colourful star and heart decorations using our Gift Tags And Card Pegs Crochet Pattern.
