Discover Festive Crochet Patterns in the Little Book of Merry Crochet Makes

Hello my lovelies,

I’m so excited to finally be able to share a little festive secret I’ve been keeping… though if you follow me on Instagram then you may have already had a few sneaky peeps. This year, I had the absolute pleasure of contributing a brand-new pattern, Father Tedmas, to a very special e-book created for Little Box of Crochet.

If you’ve followed Little Box of Crochet (LBC) for a while, you’ll know just how much light Justine brings to the crochet community. This year hasn’t been an easy one for her, so some of the LBC designers wanted to do something to lift her spirits and show just how loved she is.

Orchestrated by the lovely Nicky from A Heart Shaped Cherry, myself and a group of designers quietly gathered together behind the scenes to create something joyful. The result? The Little Book of Merry Crochet Makes – a collection of festive crochet patterns each one donated with love. This e-book is our way of wrapping Justine in a big, yarny hug – and sharing that warmth with all of you.

📘 What’s Inside the E-Book?

The Little Book of Merry Crochet Makes includes:

✨ 12 festive patterns from the designers you know and love
✨ All patterns written in UK crochet terms
✨ Each pattern kept in the original voice of its designer
✨ Instagram tags so you can follow, support, and say hello to the makers
✨ A whole bundle of holiday joy

As mentioned all the patterns are written in UK terms, but as it’s a digital e-book the patterns are available to anywhere. If you are not sure about UK terms then you might find my blog post British vs. American Crochet Terms: What’s the Difference? helpful.

🎅 Meet Father Tedmas

My contribution, Father Tedmas, is a cheerful, festive fellow who’s ready to spread some seasonal sparkle. He was a joy to design, and I hope he brings just as much joy to anyone who hooks him up. Whether he becomes part of your décor, a gift, or a little companion on your crafting sofa, he’s made with merriment in mind.
