Ornaments, minis, garlands and plush for a handmade holiday, all from the LoopSouk shop.
Handmade Christmas starts here: crochet ornaments for the tree, mini amigurumi characters for stockings and advent baskets, a garland for the mantel and one big huggable gingerbread bear. All the Christmas patterns below are beginner friendly PDFs in US terms, and most use DK yarn with a 3.5 mm hook, so one yarn stash covers the lot.
