Summer is definitely the time of year to sit at the beach (or on the porch with a glass of iced tea or iced coffee at hand) and work on crocheting smaller projects for Christmas. I often make hot mats, dish cloths, coasters, and even ornaments. It's always fun to find a festive new yarn to use.
The variegated yarn above has gold sparkles in it.
The tree motif above is made from this pattern in a sparkly green yarn. I still want to do a bunch of these and make a garland.
I just used a festive variety of regular cotton yarn in the hot mat above.
Imagine my delight to see in my email this morning a message from Yarnspirations featuring a new yarn simply titled "Festive"! It is a new color way from Red Heart Super Savers Bitty Stripes. You can save 35% now on this yarn with the code XMASINJULY.
For a closer look at this pretty new Christmas yarn, go here: Bitty Stripes Festive. Happy shopping and crafting!
That new yarn is very nice. I have been working on felt Christmas ornaments during this summer :) Never too early to start
