This cute Advent calendar will sweeten the long wait until Christmas for your children.
You can use this pattern to crochet 5 different Advent calendar pouches.
All pouches can be filled. They are also ideal as Christmas wreath decorations, as
Christmas tree ornaments, gift tags, or as a small gift for your loved ones.

Leftover yarn is enough for the individual pouches. I used Bravo by Schachenmayr and Lisa by Gründl.

They are crocheted in no time and are also suitable for beginners.

Here is the richly illustrated crochet pattern: Crochet pattern Advent calendar

This makes the time until Christmas Eve fly by!
12 pages with a total of 35 photos show you how to crochet these cute fox cones.
This pattern is suitable for beginners .

Using Catania cotton and a 2.5 mm hook, the foxes will be about 19 cm tall and 11 cm wide. For each fox, you’ll need about 5 g of dark brown, 15 g of white, 20 g of orange (or reddish brown), and a small amount of black.

a home and get the pattern for these funny
little fir trees now.

Materials needed:

• per little tree approx. 50 g- 55 g of cotton, (here Catania by Schachenmayr with a yardage of 125 m / 50 g)
• crochet hook size 2.5
• 2 safety eyes or buttons
• stuffing
• a scrap of felt (not required)
• beads and possibly a mini pom-pom (not required)

You should know how to do these:
chain stitches, slip stitches, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, and a magic ring/stitch ring

Thanks to the detailed and extensively illustrated step-by-step pattern, this calendar is easy to make even for beginners. It’s also a great way to use up leftover yarn, since each little bag requires only about 13 g of the specified cotton yarn.

An Advent calendar that doesn't disappear into storage after Christmas, but can be used all year round?



Each storage bag consists of 3 compartments, which can be hung either open or closed. 8 storage bags make 24 compartments for Advent surprises.

Hello everyone,

As a customer and non-author, I would be happy if there were Advent calendars with 24 patterns (again).

@Admin: If I posted in the wrong thread, please feel free to delete my post.

If the snow is taking its time to arrive again this year, you can at least make things a little more wintry indoors—for example, with these snowballs.


 
This wintry hanging decoration consists of two balls made from cardstock, measuring approximately 8 cm and 16 cm in diameter, which are attached to a nylon thread along with the finished pom-poms. The total length of the decoration is approximately 60 cm.
The decoration is very easy to make, but it does require a bit of patience.

I have a slightly different Advent calendar for you, which makes it something truly special:
An approx. 58 cm tall crocheted Christmas tree that serves as an Advent calendar.

The great thing: You can use the Christmas tree as a standalone decorative element and as an Advent calendar. Inside, there are 24 small boxes that offer space for lots of little things, such as sweets or vouchers. You can adjust the size individually to suit your wishes. You can also use the boxes after Christmas for other gifts or as storage.

You’ll already have most of what you need to make it at home.
Get the pattern, choose your favorite colors, and spread some Christmas cheer :)

Go to the pattern!

This Advent calendar can also replace an Advent wreath: Just attach four candles in the center and decorate them with a few small fir branches if you like, and the calendar will serve a dual purpose!



The calendar is made from cardstock and measures approximately 33.5 x 35.5 x 5.5 cm overall; the space in the center has a diameter of approximately 17 cm.

This enchanting Christmas forest with Santa Claus is knitted. To make the little trees even more festive, they can be embroidered with beads, sequins, and anything that sparkles. There is a detailed, illustrated step-by-step pattern for the tucks.
I hope you have lots of fun knitting!
Yours, Steffi from cats&hats

Hi everyone,

thank you so much for your suggestions.

I was thinking that maybe someone could offer an Advent calendar with 24 Christmas-themed patterns. I’d be really happy about that!

Best regards

These two stars are part of a set of six and have one thing in common with the other stars—because the individual cutting lines are very short, the stars are very easy to cut, even for less experienced crafters.

 
 
And I have another tip for you: Simply cut the stars directly through the templates—this saves you the rather tedious step of transferring the design onto the cardstock, and it also ensures that all cuts are made with millimeter precision. So: Roughly cut out the templates, secure them to the cardstock with painter’s tape, and cut through the templates!
The stars are made of cardstock and tracing paper and measure approximately 30 x 26 cm.

I have 10 folding box templates in my store: The boxes are very easy to make and can be used for all kinds of occasions – even as containers for Advent calendars.
Here are a few decorating ideas.

This Advent calendar has a very special feature—it’s extremely space-saving! Leaning against a wall, it takes up only 33 x 6.5 cm of floor space yet still has quite spacious compartments.


 
The calendar, made from cardstock, is 28.5 cm high. It’s very easy to make, but creating the 24 boxes and letting the Metallic Liner decorations dry takes some time—please keep this in mind when planning.

It’s not just kids who’ll be thrilled by the big St. Nicholas boot and its contents.
It offers so much space that it can hold quite a bit more besides a bottle of sparkling wine.

Even though Christmas is still some way off, as a crocheter you do have to plan ahead. That’s why my Christmas set for this year, featuring a snowman, Santa Claus, an angel, and a Christmas tree, is already available now.

The figures are great for using up leftover yarn, since each figure requires at most 1/2 ball of yarn per color , and leftover yarn is usually enough, especially for the accessories.

The snowman, Santa Claus, angel, and Christmas tree are perfect for decorating and also as gifts.

Since the individual steps are documented with lots of pictures, the crochet pattern is also very easy for beginners to follow.

As an introductory offer, the pattern is currently available with a 20% discount.

A Christmas doll as a decoration—it doesn’t get any better or more fitting than this.

With this beginner-friendly pattern, you can crochet a cute doll for Christmas!

The amount of yarn needed is minimal—you’ll need less than 50 g, such as Schachenmayr Bravo.

The doll measures about 20 cm and is perfect for placing under the Christmas tree, as a table decoration, or on a windowsill.

Difficulty level: easy to medium

You’ll also need safety eyes, stuffing, and, if desired, doll hair.

This Advent calendar is also perfect for beginner knitters! The little socks are knitted from leftover yarn and are finished in no time. But the best part is that you get a new pair of baby socks every two days.
This makes the calendar a great gift for an expectant or new mom. Filled with various little treats for mom and baby, it’s truly something special!
