Twelve Ornaments of Christmas, Volume Two!

November 16, 2016 2 Comments

Knit or crochet some adorable ornaments to trim your tree! Join Hands Occupied this holiday season to make Christmas ornaments with free patterns all season along. Each ornament doubles as a great gift topper & stocking stuffer!

The holidays are on their way, and as my gift to you this year, I’m bringing back the 12 ornaments of Christmas series starting November 28! This year, we’re teaming up with the lovely folks at Lion Brand Yarn to knit and crochet ornaments to trim our trees, top our presents, and stuff our stockings. There will also be some giveaways in store to celebrate the season.

This tiny crochet Christmas tree was one of my favorite patterns from last year’s collection.

At the end of last year’s 12 ornaments series, many of you commented that you’re looking forward to making ornaments this year, so we’ll be featuring some favorite patterns from last year along with brand new patterns. Patterns will be released in four sets of three patterns this year, each based around a theme: knit winter gear, crochet cookies, knit classic ornaments, & crochet Christmas cheer. 2016 has been a rough year for many of us, so let’s tuck in with our yarn and a cup of cocoa to to create something sweet! And if you’re yarning along with us, don’t forget to use #handsoccupiedhohoho on social media. :)
